I thought it was obvious when I first heard it.. but perhaps I'm wrong. It's about the Virgin Mary.
"Honey lovin you is the greatest thing
I get to be myself and I get to sing"
Singing is a reference to singing in a choir, which Stuart does at his local church when he's not doing B&S.
"I get to play at being irresponsible
I come home late at night and I love your soul
I never forget you in my prayers
I never have a bad thing to report "
'Prayers' is fairly obvious, but "never forget you in my prayers" might be a reference to always remembering to pray to the Virgin, or to saying 'hail mary's.
"You're my picture on the wall
You're my vision in the hall "
Makes sense that he would have a picture of the Virgin on his wall, perhaps, and he wouldn't have been the first person to have had visions of Mary.
"I'm a danger to myself I've been starting fights
At the party at the club on a Saturday night
But I don't get disapproving from my girl
She gets the all highlights wrapped in pearls.. "
He only ever mentions the 'highlights' of what he does in his prayers to Mary.
"I had a conversation with you at night
It's a little one sided but that's allright "
Prayers are usually one-sided! But often they're conversations.
"You sit on the bed in the dark changing places
With the ghost that was there before you came
You've come to save my life again "
Saving = salvation. Ghost = Holy ghost of the Trinity, who (if you believe in that kind of thing) was around a long time before Mary.
"I'd pay to visit you on rainy Sundays "
Church on Sunday?
The whole "funny little frog" thing might be to do with the Virgin influencing everything he says.
