Some songs are never meant to be understood, and this is one of them. Part of me has always thought, like most people, that "pee girl" is Courtney referring to herself (probably as a child), but all of the other imagery is pure abstraction– the milk turning to cream, the milk crying, having a dye, having a dick... I honestly still have no clue what this song is about after years of speculation, but I do know this much: it's sorrowful and expresses some sort of seething, desperate pain– it's very, very sad, and very, very beautiful.
