Wow. I totally missed the meaning of the song, so it's good to read the interpretations of everyone.
I'd hate to completely miss the point of Anti-Pop, but I actually like it as a love song. My initial interpretation of the song was as such. I thought the 'Give it up/ and they'll love you for it' ect.' lines refered to a girl who was going through a shitty time, and having everyone try to force their opinions on her.
I thought the 'You're not my girl, you're just tired' lines meant, in her confused state, she leans on this guy she knows, and tries to sleep with him to make everything go away. But he knows it's wrong to sleep with her in those circumstances, so he admits 'You're not my girl, you're just in a shitty spot and need a friend.'
