Okay, it really bothers me because it seems that people aren't getting what seems to be pretty clear from it. Everyone has been dancing around it, but has some different take. In my opinion is that this song coincides well with Keep Yourself Warm, not contradicting it. He starts out just craving the attention of sleeping with someone, as is seen in the first few verses, but then he realizes quickly that it is not enough, which ties in with the changes in lyrics of the last chorus. First he says whisper the right name, and then says I'm dave, if you please. I believe that Dave is the actual name of the character in the song. The 'if you please' is just like saying "if you will". He's just asking nicely that she call him by his real name. And then "the twist is that you're just like me" is a great word play that is saying that in reality she wants more than just casual sex too but it seems that it is alluding both of them. Well that's my take, but it seems to fit.
It's a sick song. It's about being with people for all the wrong reasons...out of a fear of being alone. And it's about settling for what's easy and attainable, and requires little risk. But then again, life is about choices. And some people choose the superficial over anything more because that's what they need or it's all they believe they can maintain. Only, they can't even maintain that for long. Sick song, and not in a good way. I am go glad I don't need anyone other than my family. I am so glad I spend time only with those...

Your use of 'alluding' is a boo-boo! S/B eluding.
