Actually it's "You're no longer my candidate", not cavity... Lol, cavity, wtf?
Anyway, to me this song seems to be about Tony Blair and George Bush...
"Should've seen the look on Tony's face/When the President went all the way"- probably a double meaning, because the media at the time humorously implied Blair and Bush to be gay ("all the way"), and "all the way" could mean also the Iraq war, as in Bush went all the way to starting a war and "the look on Tony's face" at the time was shock. (Even though he then joined in.)
"Kiss on a first date"- well, the whole 'gay' thing coming back again. This is to do with how Blair practically devoted himself to doing what Bush wanted from the moment when they met.
"Slut!"- see above. Calling him 'slut' is basically Curse saying she thinks Blair's a sell out, New Labour promised peace and then he did what Bush wanted and went to war.
"Final requests before I blind fold dad?"- Bush's dad was the President before him
"We were raised on magazines/Hoola hoops and beauty queens"- typically American things
"Execution's never been so fun"- the war again
"Who are you?"- (it's sung inbetween the pre-chorus bits) this is probably a line about how Bush didn't actually seem to know anyone important in politics when he became President, or a line about how everyone was shocked when Bush became President because it was believed Gore was meant to have won
"You're no longer my candidate"- as in electoral candidate, this line means people no longer voted for Bush and/or Blair
So, yeah. That's what I think it is anyway; I mean how could it not be? Anyway. This is my fave Betty Curse song, because it's surprisingly meaningful for her songs (let's be honest, her lyrics aren't exactly intelligent) and also, I'm a politics geek, so the lyrics appeal.
