I'd never quite thought of it that way; i'm doomed to optimism :P But thats a good point too... all the people who think the world spins for them :P
Myself though i always thought it was more of a love song. Describing someone who was, adimttedly, very confident in themselves ("you play where you want to play... where the creeps all prey" sounds like someone who wanders around kind of oblivious to what really happens in some places because theyre a bit to naive, a bit too positive, and wearing rose-tinted glasses, so to speak) but ultimately despite the flaws - which we al have - he's utterly smitten with this person. Especially in the first and last verses that comes through i guess.
