i havnt read all the postings, but all the ones i had i believe are wrong. personally, i believe that it is, in a way, mocking religion. what? are you fuckin stupid gerbil? no, im not. i have many reasons to back up my theory. but before i start, i must admit the first two lines and the chorus do back up other peoples opinions quite a bit. but the next two lines in the first verse:
Sunday mornin' is every day For all I care and I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze 'Cause I've found God
sunday morning mass. thats, in short, my explination for the first one. after a while, every day feels like sunday mass, worshipping god over and over, like some sort of slave for the 'almighty'. the candle bit, well candles are used nation wide in many religious cerimonies.
'im so lonely thats ok i shaved my head' here he may be making refference to monks living in monestries and secluded and isolated places.
'and just maybe im to blame for all ive heard but im not sure' this could be reffering to "christ dying for our sins". the uncertainty of the bibles truth, and so on and so forth.
'im so excited i cant wait to meet you there but i dont care' i believe is talking about the "afterlife".
'im so horny but thats ok my will is good' is, if my theory is correct, most obviously about the oath of celebacy that i believe all religious leaders/servent (nuns, monks, priests etc.) take. for now, i have no explinaton of the chorus. maybe youre right, or maybe its both. that would make sense. its about a priest, whom has become depressed and is losing their grip on sanity and has began questioning his religion.
@broken_gerbil I feel like you both have a point. The song could be describing bipolar personality, and it may very well describe religion having that same bipolar personality. Constantly pretending we're OK and happy, yet we "break our mirrors" so as to hide our own imperfections, hiding our human horny nature behind strong will, etc.

@broken_gerbil That's the genius of his lyrics, that they had different meanings. In this case, it was about bipolar AND his hatred for religion
