I agree with the above lyric correction.

When I saw her in concert recently, after she finished playing it Jenny said, "Ok, that song was a little bit about Lindsay Lohan". It definitely makes sense in that context. Does anyone have any insight to what "Jonestown all over again" could be referencing? That's the only part I'm not quite clear on.

Well Jonestown was a commune where hundreds of followers of Jim Jones commited mass suicide. It is probably referencing how these people are bending over backwards for the person mentioned in the song for no good reason at all.
