@TheDreamWeaver dude I used to be a heroin addict and it doesn't make you THAT numb physically, it dulls pain-its better at dulling emotional pain so "my hands are stuck to my jeans" makes no sense in your telling. Actually in your theory cocaine would make more sense since that LITERALLY bulbs the areas it's in contact with (whether nose, arm if injecting etc...).
Frankly I don't think it has anything to do with drugs, it's more about a woman who "spins sugar" as in makes candyfloss and he is desperately trying to get her attention that's why after "15 or...

As for the sky turning green and the grass different shades of blue and every member of parliament tripping on glue he is explicitly saying it'll "take all these things and all that time, till my sugar spun sister is happy with this love of mine". To me he says it just as plainly as how "going down*" is about orally pleasing the woman he's with. There are songs that are more cryptic but this isn't one of them in my opinion
I think its about drugs..Ectasy,Cocaine whatever..Hes using the 'girl' as a metaphor for drugs..
If you really read the lyrics you will see all kinds of references to drugs
'Soft drifted snow Death white'
Sounds like cocaine
'I've paid For fifteen or more But my guts Can't take many more My hands are stuck To my jeans And she knows she knows What this must mean'
Sounds like Heroin,'My guts cant take it anymore' - Heroin makes you physically sick..
'My hands are stuck to my jeans' - Heroin makes you numb
'Until the sky turns green And the grass is several shades of blue Every member of parliament trips on glue'
Sounds like a trip to me
Just my thoughts :)
