Lyric discussion by nightandday 

Accordin to his own interviews, he stopped being celibate about 10-11 years ago (check The Face 1997 interview, the Janice Long 2002 BBC interview, the NME 2006 interview) and if you're so bloody interested, he's bisexual (check the Face 1990 interview and the Observer 1992 interview) - though he doesn't use the actual word because he hates labels. Who exactly he loves or who he sleeps with and if he is sleeping with anyone at all, he doesn't say and shouldn't be your business anyway. Are you all satisfied now?! Can we please move on?!

Who or what this song is actually about, I don't know. Some of these interpretations are ridiculous enough (wow, how exactly did you see that it was about an affair with a married man?! why not a married woman? or why not an unmarried man/woman, a cat... :D), but not as ridiculous as the NME's interpretation - they thought it he was adressing them and that he meant that the racist allegations were true... yeah, right. In any case, anyone can interpret it however they like it.
