to me, personally, and I'm aware that this is a personal interpretation and not necessarily 'right' (if there is such a thing) I see this as a song about sex.
Cold fish
In my little dish
Seems to me like a metaphor (a really graphic and not entriely pleasant one) for sex. Cold fish - male, in my little dish - female. Use your imagination. And that brings the song onto a more perverse level. But I also think that this song is about masochism. The character in the song is actually enjoying the sex taken down to it's most crude, lude, perverse level. That's what they want. They want to be punished. It's about masochism.
'BREAK ME IN,
CASTIGATE (punish) me,
go on and MAKE ME'
There you go. I know too many people link things with sex these days, but that's just what the lyrics, sombined with the atmosphere of the song, say to me.

If you think about it it makes sense
