I think this song is about Lewis Carroll, author of 'Alice in Wonderland' and 'Alice Through the Looking Glass'. His Alice character was widely believed to be based on Alice Liddell, a young girl who Carroll was friends with and who he is believed to have had a romantic or sexual attraction to. The song seems to be from Carroll's point of view, watching his beloved Alice but knowing that the fact she is a child will keep them apart, hence "Watching Alice dressing in her room, It's so depressing, it's cruel".
For more great music inspired by Lewis Carroll's relationship with Alice Liddell, try Tom Waits' brilliant album 'Alice'.
the strange reference to "uniform with zippers" makes me doubt your version. this uniform sounds to me very frightening and in some sense dischord to "brushing her hair 100 times", as if something nice looking turned out to be completely wrong, misleading, shameful.
but what??? i have no idea.
