I think this song has a lot to do with the Flight or Fight stress response phenomenon. That is, when faced with a decision, you can either stand your ground and fight, or you can flee. The title "Fight Test" makes a pun out of the term "Flight Test." In a flight test, you are testing the aereonautical virtues of an aircraft, whereas in a fight test, your girlfriend (or object of your affection) is testing to see if you will fight for her. Or will you flight? In many situations, especially when dealing with physical violence, fleeing is the best choice, however, when your relationship or honor is at stake, you may have to throw down and fight. This song, I think, is the story of a guy who flees rather than fights for his girl. If he had fought, he may have been able to keep her.
