I suppose this song refers to the Andy Warhol movie, "Chelsea Girls." The photographs, Warhol's polaroids, I've seen the movie, the models, the drugs, all the girls he's gonna "fix" meaning heroin. He doesn't want to be part of that type of scene event though he's "seen the movie." For all I know he visited with Warhol or else he was more using "Chelsea" as a metaphor of a drugged up, pop fashion scene.
Yes. Dead on. Queer dissident pseudo bohemian urban decadence. Drugged up nihilistic hedonism. First of the last gasps of a perishing society. Speed freaks and cross-dressers - how far we've come. Our soldiers laid down their lives in 45' so that Andy W. could be campy and sell soup cans. To hell with this world....

@MalagaSlim I think you are correct - get your kicks at sixty six - 1966 is when that film was released, good call!
