    Hearing Hozier explain that the song is about oral sex, and about the contrast of the relationship between this and power gave a whole different understanding of the lyrics.,

      it's wrong! Hozier explain that some PEOPLE believe that and this is a wrong interpretation. This song is about found the way to be connect with the source of love and clarity.

    He finds joyful elements of human nature that have been made into shadows by those of us promoting fear and division, and then he twists out the shadows of shame by paying tribute to utterly gorgeous dynamics universal to life by virtue of love. This ideological reflectivity is beautiful on its own, but then he puts this poetry to music’s emotional poetry and this shit STICKS. Like magic. Does anyone else think He and his cosmic lover are sewing humanity’s tapestry back together? Unity bitches! I love you all.

      Well, I hear "my baby puts her mouth on me"... It's just that he is making the liaison between "puts" and "her". At least that's what I hear.
      Plus I don't think that what you're hearing - " my baby (singular) puts ( 's' at the end so 3rd person singular) their (3rd person plural) mouth (singular) on me" - makes any sense grammaticaly speaking....

      That wasn't a gender problem but a plural/singular one. "The mouth" doesn't really make any sense to me either... But maybe it's because I'm french ! We'll see when the album will be out what it says !
