I was thinking about this song this morning, and it occurred to me that this song could be about a woman consumed by American culture's fixation on violence (guns) and sex (dolls). There are at least two ways to read the reaction of her friends and family:
1) She's just SO into these things that it's starting to scare even other, more moderate members of this culture;
or
2) She's from a different culture that does not value these things in the same manner, if at all, thus they are terrified by her serious fixation.
It's not a perfect interpretation, but it just crossed my mind this morning.
