This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
don't get me wrong.
i appreciate the appreciation but don't mistake my gratitude for half-heartedness
i'm not shouting these words out for nothing now.
i still feel like there's nobody listening in an empty room full of people.
i hope these walls have ears they'll be the only one i'll ever get to.
EVERYBODY.
they all love to listen to the pretty music
but nobody hears my therapy bled upon this paper.
it translates only to...when all this is done and recorded
please don't say it was wasted on you in vain.
i'd rather you just hit stop right now and walk away
you don't hear a single thing that i say.
what's the difference when you don't read there's a lesson to be learned.
PAY ATTENTION! no this song isn't about my ex girlfriend,
didn't i just say to pay attention?
EVERYBODY.
they all love to listen to the pretty music
but nobody hears my therapy bled upon this paper.
it translates only to a catchy tune to you but i'm glad you're enjoying yourselves.
you fake like you know it so well so tell me what this song is about.
maybe girls? maybe god? maybe how well all moved on and all sold out?
i just want you all to know just how very wrong everyone of you are.
the substance is there and it isn't hard to decode.
we never said we said it best our lyrics are undressed.
we never wrote them to impress anybody. the point is this.
we've got something to say and we'll go wherever to say it.
and that is so much more than any of you can say for yourselves.
we're calling you out to call you in. so here's a second chance.
we can take this line by line and we won't second guess.
to accept is to not except a hand from anyone.
so what are you going to do now?
you're searching. reaching out there's not enough to get you through.
no turning back you've got to take this, you must face this alone.

@[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.

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,

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
This song is about how people misinterpreted the song "Latch Key", which is written by Matt about having a bad relationship with his family...but everyone came up to him and thought the song was about a girl.
