Sixteen Saltines Lyrics

Cover art for Sixteen Saltines lyrics by Jack White

I think this song is about young love and the twisted teen subculture. "Who's jealous who's jealous who's jealous who's jealous of who? If I get busy then I couldn't care less what you do But when I'm by myself I think of nothing else Than if a boy just might be getting through and touching you " Especially reminds me of teen love while "She doesn't know but when she's GONE I sit and drink her perfume. I'm sure she's drinkin TOO, but wondering what for and who" makes me think of the twisted games teens play. Combined with the video I really get the feel that this song is about young love and the twisted teen subculture but it could truthfully be about anything.
