At first, I thought it was about a woman that's getting romantically involved with with a man she just met, and was expressing her fears about getting burned in this very new relationship.
That made me wonder if this song is about Mutual Assured Destruction.
Prophet 60091: could be a flight number for a space rocket that is going to fire the orbital gun into orbit.
"Before we start you should know that you're not the only one"
She's a country or ambassador and is about to start some kind of defence treaty meeting. Other parties to the meeting have powerful weapons.
"Who can hurt me"
But wants to show weakness, and that will be willing to make concessions for the treaty to work.
"SH10151, This is the serial number of our orbital gun"
could be referring to a powerful devastating weapon, and other parties are aware of the destructive power of it.
"You better be sure before you leave me for another one"
If the other parties in the treaty want to abandon it, they really better be ready for the consequences.... because.....
"You can hurt me
I can hurt you
You can hurt me" -- the consequences will be MAD (mutually assured destruction).
I love this song.
