I always thought it was about the look you make when you.... you know.... your 'O' face.... Teenage angst would make more sense.

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of them all round my cell
I want the doctor to take a picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down and turning in and turning 'round
Teenage angst ?
