Lyric discussion by Beefheart1977 

The Song is about the 1958 play entitled "A taste of Honey"

The film is about forbidden love between a black man and the daughter of a single mum in Salford nr Manchester

I think the plastic toy may also refer to the doll that the main character was given to prepare her for motherhood.

Its about accepting that the one you love might not be acceptable to those around you but being so hopelessly in love that you would take all the shit in the world to be with that person.

Its not about oral sex...that would be quite shallow.. lol
