Kurt actually wrote this song for Iggy Pop. He wanted iggy to have it. Its basically a song about nothing.

No, it has a meaning, but you're right, he wrote it for Iggy

I would guess that it has layered meaning like most things people say or write. The covert being writing the song for Iggy Pop. But nearly all humans take an interest in others somewhat through the filter of their own attempts relate to themselves too, though it may not be the conscious intention. Everything is seen this way when we are very young children and we are able to see others as separate beings as we mature, but that inner tendency to see ourselves in the reflections of others remains on some level.
