The song's lyrics are indicative about personal problems of three fictional individuals at a group psychotherapy, with each Tic Tac Toe member representing a different character. Jazzy takes the role of a teenage girl called Kerstin who has low self-esteem due to her overweight, Ricky is a young woman Michelle whose modelling career is taking its toll on her life, and Lee represents Bernard, a man caught up in a rat race, whose job has a negative impact on his family. In the song's climax, Bernard pulls out a gun and in a rage commits suicide.
