Flying...
Clark: I don't see myself as a farmer when I grow up.
Lana: What do you wanna do then?
Clark: I'm not sure as long as it doesn't involve putting
on a suit and doing a lot of flying.
Okay, Clark is Clark Kent - future Superman. But at this stage
he's too young and doesn't know what awaits him in the future.
So what does the underlined refer to?

I agree with Nona's interpretation as to the literal meaning; however, I think there is a kind of inside joke here for the viewer. Obviously, the viewer knows (even though Clark doesn't) that Clark's future involves exactly "putting on a suit and doing a lot of flying." Very amusing.

Yeah I too considered the inside joke but wasn't aware of that
interpretation. Thanks, guys!
