the song is about a rebellious albeit scattered and confused young man whom trouble finds rather easily, who thinks he is owed everything, and who wants to dip his hand in every cookie jar he crosses pathes with. The irony, of course, is that he gets caught with his hand in the jar- and, the jar gets caught on his hand. It's a play on words, really. But, of course, all the conceived problems are all in our hero's head.
