Is this about her vagina? -

I don't know. I think it's just about the frivolousness of femininity, honestly; most of the stuff you could say about feminine frivolity can be easily turned into a metaphor for vaginas, but that doesn't necessarily mean the song is about vaginas.

Also, what's with all the views on this? Is Lenka a thing again? Did she get on some more globo advertisements?

Yeah but the ovoid eye outline things on their hands made me think of vaginas. I found the video on this site complaning about the FDA and how evil it is: <https://ktechrebate.com/life/19571-time-in-ancient-greek-literature-556-936.php>. Most of the song wouldn't make most people guess it's about vaginas, but the video definitely does.

I think the eyes are an occult reference, actually. The black-and-white motif is classic trope from occult spiritualism (the spiritual and the profane, gnosis and ignorance, etc. see for example the use of Checkerboard imagery), as is the whole Hamsa / "eyes-on-hands" thing.
The open eye is, of course, a symbol of enlightenment - and, in the case of the Hamsa, a symbol of warding and protection against the "evil eye". However, a closed eye might represent ignorance, non-enlightenment, or - again, in the case of the Hamsa - receptiveness to the dysgenic effects of the "evil eye".
My guess is that this is all relating to her desire to be "everything at once". i.e. Lenka wishes to be both enlightened AND unenlightened, spiritual AND profane, protected AND vulnerable. She wants to be (or perhaps rather, she wants you to be, as she is singing the song for your benefit as much as her own) completely open and receptive to contradictory messages, with a mind unmediated by logic or the confines of reality.
I don't know if Lenka is responsible for the video's art direction, so it could be that she's unaware of the blatant esoteric symbolism behind her video. Nor can we be sure if Lenka is herself an occultist; certainly, SOMEBODY in the dark corporate world is pushing her music, but Lenka may simply have intended to make a song celebrating female irrationality, a theme that regardless of her own intentions and allegiance, also happens to resonate with the aims of the elite.
