Very clever lyrics. There are so many twists and turns and double entrendes, if you dont pay attention it will go right over your head..Sounds as if Jack is giving some advice to someone who's been dumped, and the dumper is clearly more evolved than the one who's been left.
It also seems as if the woman was rocking his world big time and he couldnt handle it. So he did the typical chickenshit move of "Oh boy I think Ive had enough" and pusher her away, trying to regain his contro. But it blew up in his face. Calling and getting advice from friends is the worst thing you can do. You have to go with your heart but it's too late. She's had enough, and he's left with his ego that got him nowhere. She sang her song of truth to him, but he could only hear his own version.
A most excellent example of cloaked lyrics.
