"Stick 'em up, baby"---American English term used by a robber, telling the victim to stick their [sic] hands up, "'em" is most probably the breasts here, because Lux was Lux.
"I know a place that's far from here
where the squares they won't come near"---this sounds like it's from some juvenile delinquency or beatnik exploitation song---not the sort of thing a delinquent or beat would actually ever say, but good for a cheap lyric.
"Training gear"---some S&M people refer to what they do as "training", so this is probably some assemblage of leather straps.
"Giddyup baby . . . ooh la la"---what else to say when one is riding?, likely with the aid of leather straps as above.
"If I had a hammer"---refers to a pre-hippy peace 'n' love song made popular by Pete Seeger and then Peter, Paul, and Mary; the dissonance between the folky \"uber-niceness and Lux' dark threat is beautiful.
"A smell of honey, a swallow of brine"---old adage against being seduced by something that seems good, but turns out not to be so; also the title of a Dave Friedman[?] or Herschel Gordon Lewis[?] "Southern squalor" movie.
