Some self-absorbed jerk in a band is pursuing the girl (presumably Exene) and when she shows some interest back (asking "when", as in, when can they see each other again) he ditches her ("okay so long") because he's in it for the chase, not the catch.
She gets upset ("I could throw my lipstick and bracelets like gravel and move to Alabama, I got some more scotch instead") and every time she's reminded of what the motherfucker did to her she's humiliated that she fell for the trick and mortified that she still feels something for him ("then I died a thousand times/ hung me with the endless rope")
As a result, she feels empty and hopeless ("got a hole in my heart size of my heart") and possibly bitter towards men ("hang another man, he hung me with the endless rope"). In summation, this song is so great because that is exactly what it feels like.
