i've got another suggestion about the meaning of this song.....well actually my friend said it the other night when we were having a deep & meaningful conversation (as ya do) and anyway. it might be ironic, like some people get so high and mighty about doing something- like if they give a pound (dollar whatever) to charity, then they're like "ooh i saved the world"...and maybe she's saying that that's not enough when you consider all that's going on in the world, and she's going to look after herself and not be disillusional about making a difference when she knows she can't.

@rainbow8711 I for one can certainly see the irony of the line 'I saved the world today' when so many of the rest of the words indicate a much 'darker' outloook. A quite brilliant line, and song, really!
