First off, the chorus lyrics are "but i would break backsides for you" not "that i would break back nights for you"
I really think it's just about being in a relationship with the wrong person.
"Walk away to save your face
You never were a genius"
We all know Brian is a really intelligent person, and it seems like the person (remembering that it could be a girl or a guy) he is singing to isn't on the same level.
Alternatively it could be him singing to himself, saying 'wake up, this will never work'
"Walk away to save your face
You never were an actor
Walk away to save your face
Here comes the morning after"
I think this is about trying to smooth over the problems, but all the problems coming out anyway.
"Yes it's just the second night
But i would break backsides for you
Yes i know you're the jealous type
'Cause I'm cursed with second sight"
I think this is really about the narrator realizing that he's somewhat infatuated with the person, but that it can't work out.
I think "walk away" is repeated so much because it;s really just him realizing he needs to walk away from a relationship that won't work out.
