now that i think about it the masturbating/meaningless sex-theories make perfect sense. but like some other person here i just can't bring myself to really believing that the song is about masturbating. ^^
that's why i'm just gonna post what i thought the song was about up until now. what i actually still think it is about.
so, when i listen to the song i always think it's about falling in and out of love. i think some other people here said this before as well.
the pickles and pickle jars are a metaphor for guys. you get to know one, invite him into your life and everything. he starts to metaphorically tint your life with his colours - "eminating soft soft green"
you are happy and everything feels magical and you start to think that maybe this is it, this is how it's supposed to be and supposed to stay.
but suddenly the magic vanishes and before you really understand what's happening you've fallen out of love. and you look at him and think "well, what was so special about him, really. he's just like any other guy."
but the thing that this song tells me is that love is the one thing that can transform a perfectly normal boy into prince charming. and that's a great thing, in my opinion.
and secondly, that love is a thing that can't be nailed down to one meaning. it's the answer to all the questions we have forgotten, to all the questions we will never ask. it's always changing and always moving. that's what's so wonderful about it. sure, it also means people can fall out of love, but that's ok because in the end love is still the red line in life. the thing that keeps it all together.
