She, another night another pillow.
No education, it's the arse of the nation,
She, sh-shaking up the karma,
She, "injecting marijuana",
No education it's the arse of the nation,
She
No stimulation in this privatization,

Can't beleive no-one's commented! What a tune!
I think it's about a girl who sleeps around but has no real substance to her! She just goes through life doing what she does, bored and unfulfilled. The guys she's with don't appreciate her either.
Possibly she is a prostitute to get drug money?
@sarciness13 I think the "arse of the nation" could possibly be an allusion to her being a prostitute (i.e. she is the on the bottom wrung of the social pecking order in any nation)

Song is about a girl that can't get satisfaction from relationships and is insatiable. She is bored...clearly about her lust for partying and having fun. She is definitely not good relationship material ;)

Its just about a junkie that's lost in the system like everyone else..
@kexpseattle can see where you are coming from with that ... drug users are definitely seen as the "arse" of most nations

i always heard the part transcribed above as 'she, "injecting marijuana",' = 'she, injecting made you wanna' or 'she, injecting made you want her' (the last slurred rhythmically enough so it still fit in the rhyme scheme of the song). it's just that whole 'injecting marijuana' (I've also seen it written like that on other sites; is it the official lyric?) thing is weird and Brett pronounces 'marijuana' in a notably strange + ambiguous way...sort of draws it out.

Yes, unusual as it might be, I guess that's the official lyric since it's printed on the cd's booklet... Exactly like this, between "quote marks"...
