I think this is possibly one of the strongest records on the album, don't know why it's last?

Anyway, I'm a little confused on some of the meaning of this one. It seems as if the entire song are things he says to himself, or perhaps his thoughts?

I'm pretty sure the guy wants to talk to this certain girl, or ask her out (something along those lines) and he's trying to pluck up the courage to do it. He want's to go for it, but perhaps he's scared.

By the second verse he's messed it all up it seems! He's obviously said something wrong, thus the 'dirty words' !!

I really like the part 'If life is a teacher then i'll be a preachers son...look what you got yourself into...' but have no idea what it all means!! Perhaps he wants to be different and go for the unobvious option? Not sure. Any other suggestions?
