This song, like many of his, is about lonely people. All his friends are car salesmen, who are friends with anyone until they know you well enough to realize you aren\'t buying. The second verse says after \'the deed\' things are pretty much as they were before the act, same for his dog getting pregnant, or various religions and their gods. Just someone not very well connected to others and feeling isolated and alone
