    The song is about feeling melodramatic, neurotic, and paranoid. The singer went to a shrink to analyze their dreams, and was told their lack of sex was the problem. They then went to a prostitute who said their life was boring and to quit whining. The chorus reiterates these feelings of giving in to melodrama and their mind playing tricks, adding to their feeling that they may be cracking up or just stoned.
