Just listening to this song today, as a matter of fact.
I think the gist of the song is to be found in these lines:
The girl works at the store, sweet Jane St. Clair
Still dazzled by her smile while I shoplift there
This is the best possible example of a reason for Jane's wariness of men and their proclamations of love. Her story, told by a guy who says he loves her and complains of her lack of trust in men, and yet has no problem shoplifting from HER place of employment.
Ironic, of course. That's the reason (well, one of them anyway) why I love the song.
