re funkybrownie: The song is written from the perspective of a guy.
I think the song is either making fun of or just showing how this pathetic guy reacts after being screwed over. Instead of sucking it up, he drags it out by whining about it and begging the girl to take him back. The lyrics are so whiny and pathetic--even Corin's voice has an exaggerated whiny dramatic dragging quality in this song.
What makes me love this song is the deliberate use of cliches when referring to the fact that the incident took place in France ("your croissant is getting cold" and "Meet me at the Sorbonne"). I love when people use cliches on purpose for a comedic effect.
