@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Who's that I see walking in these woods?
Why it's Little Red Riding Hood.
Hey there Little Red Riding Hood.
You sure are lookin' good,
You're everything a big bad wolf could want.
Listen to me!
Little Red Riding Hood,
I don't think little big girls should.
Go walking' in these spooky old woods alone.
What big eyes you have,
The kind of eyes that drive wolves mad.
So just to see that you don't get chased,
I think I ought to walk with you for a way.
What full lips you have.
They're sure to lure someone bad.
So until you get to Gramma's place,
I think you ought to walk with me and be safe.
I'm gonna keep my sheep suit on,
'Til I'm sure you've been shown,
That I cam be trusted walkin' with you alone. (Howl!)
Little Red Riding Hood,
I'd like to hold you if I could.
But you might think I'm a big bad wolf, so I won't.
What a big heart I have,
The Better to love you with.
Little Red Riding Hood,
Even big bad wolves can be good.
I'll try to keep satisfied,
Just to walk by you're side.
Maybe you'll see things my way,
Before we get to Gramma's place.
Hey there Little Red Riding Hood.
You sure are lookin' good,
You're everything a big bad wolf could want.
Little Red Riding Hood.
You sure are lookin' good,
You're everything a big bad wolf could want.
Little Red Riding Hood.
You sure are lookin' good,
You're everything a big bad wolf could want.
Why it's Little Red Riding Hood.
Hey there Little Red Riding Hood.
You sure are lookin' good,
You're everything a big bad wolf could want.
Listen to me!
Little Red Riding Hood,
I don't think little big girls should.

You sure are lookin' good,
You're everything a big bad wolf could want.

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
i think it's told from the perspective of the (wolf) a "bad guy"
but he's really just a normal dude.
he kinda rationalizes walking with her to keep her safe but he really wants to be with her himself.
there is internal conflict where he doesn't want to live up to the big bad wolf stereo type by holding her so he waits and resists the temptation.
he also tries to get her to see things his way but i don't think she listens.
this is such a cool song, really portrays some of the feelings guy have when perusing a women.
