Prophet 60091, this is the flight number of our galactic sun.
Prophet 60091, before we start you should know that you're not the only one who can hurt me.
SH10151, this is the serial number of our orbital gun.
SH10151, you better be sure before you leave me for another one, you can hurt me.
I can hurt you.
You can hurt.
You can hurt me.
I can hurt you.
But you better be sure before you leave me for another one, I can hurt you.
You can hurt me.
But you better be sure before you leave me for another one...

I think the little romantic part probably has nothing to do with that. But maybe she is saying she could damage her synthesizer before she resells it to someone else. And maybe she produced a sound that hurt her ears. Just a humorous guess.
At first, I thought it was about a woman that's getting romantically involved with with a man she just met, and was expressing her fears about getting burned in this very new relationship.
I was just now googling for SH10151 to see what that's about, and someone created a t-shirt with a orbital gun and the serial number. (zazzle.com/…)
That made me wonder if this song is about Mutual Assured Destruction.
Prophet 60091: could be a flight number for a space rocket that is going to fire the orbital gun into orbit.
"Before we start you should know that you're not the only one"
She's a country or ambassador and is about to start some kind of defence treaty meeting. Other parties to the meeting have powerful weapons.
"Who can hurt me"
But wants to show weakness, and that will be willing to make concessions for the treaty to work.
"SH10151, This is the serial number of our orbital gun"
could be referring to a powerful devastating weapon, and other parties are aware of the destructive power of it.
"You better be sure before you leave me for another one"
If the other parties in the treaty want to abandon it, they really better be ready for the consequences.... because.....
"You can hurt me
I can hurt you
You can hurt me" -- the consequences will be MAD (mutually assured destruction).
As well, it's best to realize profit/prophet is likely an intentional play on words ;)
I agree with the first part about the sun and its relationship to the man. I think that's a really cool interpretation of the song.
I don't know about the gun. Maybe "orbital gun" is just a metonymy for a spaceship...
"This is the flight number of our galactic sun
Prophet 60091

Sun is always being compared to something unique, one and only and in this song it's just being described as something with a serial number, something usual, something there's plenty of around. And a man who this song as addressed to, is compared to Sun, he's unique, he's great, but that doesn't mean he's one of the kind. There are others. And hence "before we start you should know that you're not the only one", even Sun is not the only one.
"This is the serial number of our orbital gun

Not sure, but maybe she kinda threatens with a gun and reads its serial number in order to make him believe she really has a gun and really will shoot him if he would leave her for another one
