The lyrics of "Underworld - Born Slippy" talk about wank?

Is he pleasing himself and talking to his little fellow, meanwhile he thinks of a blonde?
quote:
Underworld - Born Slippy
Drive boy dog boy dirty numb angel boy
In the doorway boy she was a lipstick boy
She was a beautiful boy and tears boy
And all in your innerspace boy you had
Hands girl boy and steel boy you had
Chemicals boy I’ve grown so close to you
Boy and you just groan boy she said
Comeover comeover she smiled at you boy.

Let your feelings slip boy but never your mask boy
Random blonde bio high density rhythm blonde boy
Blonde country blonde high density
You are my drug boy you’re real boy speak to me
And boy dog dirty numb cracking boy
You get wet boy big big time boy
Acid bear boy babes and babes and babes and
Babes and babes and remembering nothing boy.
You like my tin horn boy and get wet like an angel.
Derail.

You got a velvet mouth you’re so succulent and beautiful
Shimmering and dirty wonderful and hot times
On your telephone line and God and everything
On your telephone and in walk an angel.
And look at me your mom squatting pissed in
A tube hole at tottenham court
Road I just come out of the ship
Talking to the most blonde I ever met.
Shouting
Lager lager lager lager shouting
Lager lager lager lager shouting
Lager lager lager shouting
Mega mega white thing mega mega white thing
Mega mega white thing mega mega shouting
Lager lager lager lager mega mega white thing
Mega mega white thing
So many things to see and do in the tube hole
True blonde going back to romford
Mega mega mega going back to romford
Hi mom are you having fun and now are you on
Your way to a new tension headache

1) In the first paragraph, "boy" could be a metaphor for "what has grown close to him", because when it's near the doorway, depending on the point of view, it does look like a girl using lipstick (when she says "come over" smiling at him, it's the mental image he's picturing while doing it). From its "innerspace", "tears" come... I guess it's enough for the first paragraph

2) You can let your feelings "slip", unless you're using a rubber "mask", not to mention the "get wet" part after becoming "big big big". I'll leave the blondes and babes part alone as they're self-explanatory.

3) I don't think I need to say anything about the "suculent and beautiful" "velvet mouth" capable of bringing "dirty wonderful and hot times". I'm afraid of what the telephone part can be, because I can't get the metaphor (I really hope he's not talking with his mother on the phone while doing it). As for the "look at me" while "you're going down on a tubehole" part, we can only guess he did it in the shower, and the "lager lager lager mega white thing" is the euphory of being in the vinegar strokes and its consequences.

i hate the tune with passion, but i think he's on about a blowjob rather than wanking. the tune has potential in that melody, but other than that it's all crap! IMO!

I've heard this theory before, and the way you just explained it makes sense.

They just chose a less embarassing excuse

This song is so awesome. I always kinda figured it was about some sort of drug experience, but I think your theory makes more sense.

Anyone got the interpretation of the other theories?

So far, all I can see is this one.

This song absolutlty pisses me off everytime i hear it. I hated it the first time I heard it live, and this tune has not gotten better with age. To all DJs everywhere, please give this song the burial it deserves...

I'll have to agree with you, there.

Oh, and your analyzation of the lyrics remind me of my English AP class.
