Lyric discussion by coviiblu 

According to Deal, the main inspiration for the song was the film Crimes of the Heart, in which a married woman falls in love with a black teenager[2] and the song "Gigantic" is credited to Mrs John Murphy (Kim Deal's pseudonym at the time of Come On Pilgrim and Surfer Rosa and an ironic feminist joke). so yeah

@coviiblu There's also an element of joyful voyeurism in the song, like Kim's spying on the couple and is enjoying how happy they are together.
