Has anyway read the David Sedaris story "Blood Work" from his book "Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim"?
This song really reminds me of that..
It's like this: David starts cleaning houses, and goes to an apartment where a very sweaty man resides, who is not in favor of air conditioning. He continually talks about FIRE ISLAND in a very loud voice, "...as if it were a prearranged code, the watchwords signaling me to hand over the microfilm." As David starts to find gay pornography piled about the apartment, and wonders why the guy asks if he is coming to clean at 2PM or 2AM, he slowly catches onto the fact that this guy didn't just want any housecleaner. He watches a "movie" and pleases himself in David's presence, then proceeds to pay David $230 dollars for his services, even though he didn't "service" him, as this was a mixup in cleaning services.

ps- I stole that summary from amazon
Kind of a stretch.
