This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
My vagina has two sets of lips, but I don't get
Monthly blood drips, my vagina hardly even used
My vagina's got lots of extra skin they took my
Outtie and made it an in turning Donnie into Marie Osmond
Operation successful, but now I gotta pee through a
Miniature hole gotta remember to put the seat
Down and when I wipe my ass I go from
Front to back cause I don't want a bladder infection
I never thought I'd miss my vas deferens
I trade it in for a pair of huge cans
Now I get to hang with lesbians
Operation paid up front now I show all
My friends my new designer cunt
They think I'm kinda weird, but that's
OK with me cause now I kick their ass
Playing from the ladie's tee there's
Nothing finer than having a vagina
Monthly blood drips, my vagina hardly even used
My vagina's got lots of extra skin they took my
Outtie and made it an in turning Donnie into Marie Osmond
Operation successful, but now I gotta pee through a
Miniature hole gotta remember to put the seat
Down and when I wipe my ass I go from
Front to back cause I don't want a bladder infection
I never thought I'd miss my vas deferens
I trade it in for a pair of huge cans
Now I get to hang with lesbians
Operation paid up front now I show all
My friends my new designer cunt
They think I'm kinda weird, but that's
OK with me cause now I kick their ass
Playing from the ladie's tee there's
Nothing finer than having a vagina

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Correction, the line is "Operation 'sex'cessful, but now I gotta pee through a miniature hole ". Spelling is a pet peeve of mine. This song is a first-person tale of getting a sex-change.
this song fucking rocks. "....and when I wipe my ass I go from front to back Cause I don’t want to get a bladder infection" hilarious!!!
This song is great. I played the cd at a party once, everyone else there was a poppy teen boppy brat, and my b.guitarist n i decided to put this cd in. We ran the cd thru over n over again, and everytime My Vagina came on - they all got mad and thought we were sick!! Hahahaha, we laughed our asses off, it was great!!
It's about being a guy and turning into a woman by means of operations. He is talking about how he got a vagina and breast. Looking at the last line I am guessing he had no problems with getting a sex change.
