Hackman uses poetic imagery and metaphors to describe female masturbation. She seems to mention this song in an interview with Dork before it was released:
It’s quite sexual; there are songs about masturbation and fucking – it’s a really funny record
As Any Human Friend has been labelled a breakup...
[Intro]
Grease sheets, leave my right hand free
It’s hard to be alone
Deep heat, turn the lights on in my hole
I love this
[Verse 1]
My finger touch
I've been feeling stuff
Dark meat, skin pleat, I'm working
Oh, monkey glove
You threw away two pints of blood
It's alright, I'm jerking
[Pre-Chorus]
I love this
Grease sheets, leave my right hand free
It's hard to be alone
Deep heat, turn the lights on in my hole
[Chorus]
When I'm alone (Onanism)
It's automatic, oh
I dig for life in the eye of my thighs
I can't believe petite mort
I'm a slave at your door
And I feel to be free, oh, the irony
[Verse 2]
When I go blind, will you keep in mind
I had fun, I got it on
Endorphins
I gave it all, but under patriarchal law
I'm gonna die a virgin
[Pre-Chorus]
I love this
Grease sheets, leave my right hand free
It's hard to be alone
Deep heat, turn the lights on in my hole
[Chorus]
When I'm alone (Onanism)
It's automatic, oh
I dig for life in the eye of my thighs
I can't believe petite mort
I'm a slave at your door
And I feel to be free, oh, the irony
(I love this)

This idea that you haven’t lost your virginity unless you have sex with a guy…Well, how do you define having sex? What actually is sex? A line like that is definitely political. There, I know exactly what I’m doing… I think we need more wank anthems, especially for women…The more the merrier, that’s...
