Legal Stuff:

As usual, this is my own interpretation of this piece and is intended
for private study, research and
though what you could learn from

This song just dosen't work on many levels. They're saying that if a guy wants to get with them, they have to also be with their friends, and make it last a long time. I don't know if i'm mistaken, but I don't think that relationships work that way.
