Then the chorus is her longing for the days when she isn't constipated. The days her bowel movements went so smoothly. She's longing for those days. Reminiscent. But ah, that's just the flavor of life. Sometimes something so simple as using the toilet can unexpectedly become a difficult thing to achieve. And she can do nothing but wait for the feeling to pass.
I can see the PV being a simple one-shot ordeal similar to Simple and Clean. Balled up toilet paper in her hand. She's depressed and a bit frustrated while sitting on the toilet.
Listen to the song with this in mind. It'll change your perception of the song forever. Lol.
And the twist? That experience gave her the inspiration to write "Devil Inside". She got to thinking "maybe there's a devil... Somewhere really deep inside me...?" It was only years later that she recalled her experience and process of writing that song that she decided to write Flavor of Life.
