SM sez:

"That one's about car thieves and sex with three people and all those sick things. I sang it totally falsetto, which is like being a woman to me. It's also quite stoned. The song switches from a car thief to a nasty, creepy cabaret. Like, Mark [Ibold] made this reference to a girl pulling a string of pearls up her crotch, something really lewd. I wouldn't want to be involved in that kind of scene, though. I'm on the puritan side of the underground."
