Hey, time won't wait for you
Keeps on ticking away
Burning up every day
She was sleeping at the bus stop
Heaven away
But our magic in her blue eyes
Told me she had left her daze
So I have to chat her wisdom
And there was no doubt
I told her I was sitting lonely on request fault
Future's gonna catch out
[Chorus]
She said, 'Time won't wait for you.'
So do all the things you wanted to
Better hurry up, take it in your stride
Use your resolution which you've been sublime
And love won't change you boy, it's true
I can tell you till my face blue
Every second screams, listen to your dreams
Oh, cause you just can't stop the pop
On a brick that I was banging, over my head
But the sweet rings on my feet now
Where they once were made of lead
Do you hear the message in the music now
I hear it too
You know, you got your history in the making now
Slowing down won't get you through, no no
[Chorus: x2]
Keeps on ticking away
Burning up every day
She was sleeping at the bus stop
Heaven away
But our magic in her blue eyes
Told me she had left her daze
So I have to chat her wisdom
And there was no doubt
I told her I was sitting lonely on request fault
Future's gonna catch out
[Chorus]
She said, 'Time won't wait for you.'
So do all the things you wanted to
Better hurry up, take it in your stride
Use your resolution which you've been sublime
And love won't change you boy, it's true
I can tell you till my face blue
Every second screams, listen to your dreams
Oh, cause you just can't stop the pop
On a brick that I was banging, over my head
But the sweet rings on my feet now
Where they once were made of lead
Do you hear the message in the music now
I hear it too
You know, you got your history in the making now
Slowing down won't get you through, no no
[Chorus: x2]

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,
I Can't Go To Sleep

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
