In our cell you ask me do I wanna be a sailor In our cell you ask me do I wanna be a sailor (His first invitation to have sex with a man)

I think dirt (His mind races, he gets excited and thinks he's 'dirt' for wanting this) A suicide jump to run a self check (He analyses what he wants. Is he sure he wants to go through with it? YES) Oh my girl (Sarcastic, calling his male lover a girl) Do you only like the younger or the braindead? (Thinks low of himself, or prehaps this is in reference to his lover's previous lovers)

Three way, freeway, take me like a sailor (He wants it, he wants to be free and be a 'sailor' with this man) Three way, freeway, wanna be a sailor? ('Are you sure you want this?')

A-quick step, boy girl love me like you love her (Quickly, he realises he is attracted to both males and females) A Knee-jerk, slow work, wanna be a sailor? (Knee jerk, slow work, playful sex etc)

In our cell you ask me do I wanna be a sailor In our cell you ask me do I wanna be a sailor

A child like a lipstick fight before the nose dive, (The first kiss, messy, all over the place but full of lust. Nose dive being the act of sex) My princess, do you only like the easy and the snow blind? (Another sarcastic namecalling 'princess'. Thinking he's submitted himself too easily, too quickly because he's so eager)

etc.

My thoughts anyway. AMAZING song though, so so so so sexy.
