Jonathan Richman often writes about longing for a normal boy girl relationship. It really is an alienated sort of a scene to portray, being used to more sex and unusual love in most modern music. It's very close to something the Beach Boys tried to say in songs like 'Wouldn't it Be Nice' (and succeeded, by the way). Anyways, there is definitely a scene of a normal teen longing for normality and a girlfriend in this song.
