This is an amazingly trippy song. And I'm surprised so few TMBG fans aren't into it. The lyrics are taken directly from a Nat King Cole song of the same name, the opening line of his song being 'Mona Lisa, men have named you'.
The 'men have named me too' part is something that the giants would have come up with, my guess would be that it's mocking of romance, since 'Mona Lisa' is a romantic song, and 'men have named me too' is trivializing a line in a Nat King Cole song that is often seen as more profound than it actually is. -- Timus.
