This is possibly one of the greatest examples of how the music is built around the lyrics. Awesome the way this song falls together. The acoustic version available from her website (http://www.lennononline.com) is really good too, but I still like it better plugged in.
Anyway, meaning. I think this song is about her being a mistress to some guy who's getting two women at once. She's pretty much there for one thing and one thing only, to him. She'd hoped to get something more, but it became obvious that it wasn't going to happen, she got tired of "Playing the parts" and left. He was just like "Whatever" to her, but she knows he's still broken over it.
