Always thought the title and the first verse combined to describe something sexual going on with the protagonist. "Crosseyed and Painless" could be orgasm. "Lost my shape": an erection. "Trying to act casual": how else would you be if you were showing arousal when you are (maybe) in a social situation? And as the Levitra ads tell us, you "might end up in the hospital" if this condition lasts too long. (I know this was written before the advent of ED medication.)
