I'm from durban south africa. Much of the album was recorded in south africa, there are some specifically south african cultural references:
The sign of the teaspoon is index finger extended pointing down making a circular motion. The sign of the wave is a wave like motion with your arm. These are signs used to summon a minibus taxi. The teaspoon one means citycenter and the wave one means durban (its a coastal city). As the taxi drives past the driver sees the signs and stops if he's going in that direction.
In context this probably means that he is saying that they are going in different directions in life.
Also you would use the city centre one if you are in the wider area of durban, the wave one is more appropriate if you are coming from further away such as a rural area. In other words they use the different signs because they come from different places.
