Interpretations for "shaven cave" are much more ambiguous and one, once again, put it in context: "I have been brave/ Deep in every shaven cave/ But none were you". As the song deals with being isolated and plays on the word "home", metaphorically asking whether true comfort and happiness is being found within yourself or another person, I believe Morrissey studies the word "cave" with a meaning regarding safety and protection and a rather simple form of shelter. It is a very primitive method of housing and coupled with the adjective "shaven", it gives off this very barren imagery as shaven implies that something is gone or "shaved off" and therefore is has nothing special to it, and Morrissey comes to the conclusion that this person he used this "home" analogy for was not the true "home" he is looking for hence "But none were you".
Yes, absolutely! Morrissey leaks with puns!Moz does enjoy a sexually suggestive double entendre now and again though, so, deep in the the hairless vagina would satisfy that agenda in addition to your more thought out possibility.
Jeepers H Christ - it's clearly a reference to someone's groomed genital area (theoretically a shaven vagina, though given Morrissey's usual humasexual preferences a guy's depilated butt is the more obvious). There really is no need to go digging for obscure non-sexual meanings here - this is the same damn song where he asks if someone will wrap their legs around his head, for Cliff's sake - so it's a bit late to be prudish.It is a very primitive method of housing and coupled with the adjective "shaven", it gives off this very barren imagery as shaven implies that something is gone or "shaved off" and therefore it has nothing special to it, and Morrissey comes to the conclusion that this person he used this "home" analogy for was not the true "home" he is looking for hence "But none were you".

what the f*** is up with that? musically I like it, but some of the lyrics... ew.
There are a lot of crotch references (at least three songs), but again - the sex references are nothing new. We are talking about an artist whose debut single featured a naked guy's butt on the cover, and lyrics about the sun shining out of someone's butthole - while the B side referred to mammary glands, boys in bushes and getting head on the conjugal bed. Even when we skipped to the solo career, the debut single talked about having a 'good lay'.
Most of the crotch references on 'Low in High School' seem to be aiming for the blunt shock factor previously displayed on something like 'there are explosive kegs between my legs', but there are more subtle references in there. One of my favourite 'hidden' bits of smut that most people don't seem to have picked up on yet, is the reference to an 'almighty crack' on 'In Your Lap'. Given the amount of Carry On films Morrissey has seen, there is no way that is not a deliberate double entendre.
