Hmm...this song seems to be about how doctors are often punished for performing abortions. That's what "painting the roses red" means.

Basically, we have a girl who's messed around with a bunch of guys. That's what the title seems to imply: "curious oysters" becomes "active vaginas." One of the guys ends up getting her pregnant, so she goes to a doctor to get an abortion. Guess who gets in trouble?

...And the news media gets in the way, televising the event and airing pro-life protests needlessly.

That's my take on it.
