To me, this song is about a guy that is not a good catch because he will wait until it's too late to make a meaningful life for himself. (he'll open up his heart to the one he loves when he's on his death bed) A person that licks coconut skins and hangs out is like a surfer-pot head with no motivation to do much other than that. (nothing against surfers OR pot heads)
If the one that loves him puts all her eggs in his basket, she'll be sorry b/c his basket is faulted and she'll lose them.
He waits for others to tell him the way life should be rather than braving the decision himself. This guy better get a reall fire under his ass or else he's going to have to use a chimney to get one there...and that's just artificial.
