I have no idea what this song is about, let's be clear from the start. But today, as it popped up on my phone on random, while walking down by the sunny canal, I heard the lines "reproductively unsound, reproductively inclined".

I'd always thought it was a couple in a relationship type song, and this line made me wonder whether it was about a couple deciding whether to have a baby together or not.

Whatever it's about, it's just a lovely, honest lyric with some beautiful lines, like "...", actually, like the whole of the first verse. Beginning a song with "Hobbled by the fact that there must be a problem"! Genius! So I think it's just about a couple trying to work through some issue, whatever it may be, and it's probably something very personal between the speaker and his intended audience of one. The beautiful emotional music fits the emotional lyrical content so well, also.
