It's about changing your life and moving on. Probably written in reflection after he left G n R.. The first verse is about a woman who is bored with her life in New York and just up and drives out of town and ends up in LA. The second verse is about a guy who is also bored with is life. Just sitting around listening to old records smoking up. His dog is sleeping and his woman is playing Nintendo...Dr. Mario...weird game to refer too but anyway...goes to sleep, alone again. The third verse again is just about the journy to starting over....although the reference to Dr. Doolittle is a mystery to me. The chorus "Shuffle it all" is quite literal, about shuffling up your life. Love the song. Izzy rules!
Probably a reference to "Mario Brothers" but it's likely that he couldn't get the rights from Nintendo to use the name.

Just like the Kinks with their song "Lola". They had to change the line "Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Coca- Cola" to "Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola."
