In revision 893313963, 82.45.50.60 (talk · contribs) added the following "analysis of lyrical content" (quoted from edit summary):

The song's lyrics relate the emotional and psychological trauma faced by a man who is attempting to negotiate a post - feminist world. The opening lines of the song show his confusion in the variety of roles played by women in late Twentieth Century Western Society and the challenge he faces in moving beyond now redundant gender stereotypes ('Some girls will, some girls won't. Some girls need a lot of lovin' and some girls don't'). In the first verse the singer describes meeting a lady in a social situation and relates his sense of crippling self - doubt as he struggles to decode the non - verbal communication inherent in the scene ('I see those looks you're sending me, is this the way it's meant to be?'). Eventually the lyrics resolve themselves in the second verse with the singer resigning himself to a secondary role within his new relationship ('Now that I know you socially, obviously I'll fall heavily'). The whole piece works as a premonition of the changing dynamics of male/female relationships in a post 'me too' society.

Lacking citations, and seeming generally unencyclopaedic in tone, I've removed the paragraph. But it's obviously not thoughtless, and may not even be wholly original research/opinion, so I felt a bit bad deleting it wholesale. So, I'm putting it here in case any of it can be sourced and salvaged. -- Perey (talk) 10:38, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
