The music of this song is a direct rip-off of Roxy Music, and Brian Eno (who was a member of Roxy Music). The staccato lyrics, (for example "Come on, Come on", "Uh oh, Uh oh", "All right. All right.", "Who knows, who knows", "Hey man, Hey man"), are simply a result of the Samba rhythm of the 70's rhythm machine percussion track.
The lyrics are possibly about cross-dressing in public, possibly like Brian Eno, David Bowie, Lou Reed, etc. Therefore, the "lady' referred to in the song is possibly David Byrne himself.
"Last time she jumped out the window, Well, she only turned and smiled. You might think she would say something, But you'd have to wait a while." is possibly because when cross-dressing in public, the male cross-dresser might decline to talk to persons because a man's voice would come out.
"drifting through a haze" might refer to the hazing ritual of cross-dressing in public.
Also, this song might refer to sex with a call girl, or a female fan delivering drugs and sex, and leaving via the window/fire escape. It is also possible that this song was written via randomly arranging one line phrases, like Jimi Hendrix's song Little Wing, (https://songmeanings.com/songs/view/18476/), that is admired by Brian Eno.
