The song is not about masturbation. He wrote this after his visit in a club in Japan. He was curious about a fad there, which actually spread through much of Japan in the era. People did not dance with other people, instead the dance floord were covered with large mirrors and you were supposed to dance in front of them. Japan has such stupid fads...it was once a fad for teenagers to jump into volcanoes...
Well... you can't quite say he "wrote" the song, since he didn't write it. Its a cover, the original version is by a band from the 1960's called Generation X or Gen X, and when he came to New York for the first time, he heard this song being played by some other group.

Yes, its true that later, after visiting Japan, Billy was inspired by how in the discos the japanese kids where "dancing by themselves", but nonetheless the original version of this song is by Gen X.
Wow that was a bad reply, Pepe. Billy Idol was IN Gen X, he was a founding member, and he (along with the rest of the band) wrote the song. It dates from 1981, not the 1960s. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dancing_with_Myself
