In an interview Neko said that this song was written for her guitarist and close friend Paul Rigby. He was the one who came up with the line that he was "holding out for that teenage feeling". To me this song is about her lack of desire for a romantic partner, a stance that she's had to defend in countless interviews. But I want to believe that this is also a love song to Paul, only purely platonic. But from past research, Ms. Case's songs are often not what they seem.
