Steppin' out the bus,
Fresh-faced
These city lights (lights)
Stars all chase.
Ain't got nothing but
Suitcase.
Country boy,
Peeping L.A.

Following down the first alley...
Her love was free,
But her time was gonna cost
(Money, my baby)

She said, "I won't let you go
That easy.
See my man (staring)
Down the street."
Lady, this seems so
Seedy.
(You can have a taste)
The devil in my mind is greedy.

Too trusting
I know these streets are mean.
Come join my team
Guess I could float you $20 if you're clean

I was sent to take the strip
Back from the grave you
Motherfuckers dropped it.
Keeping up the nasty shit
(Scare them straight) by the crew in it.
I was sent to save the strip
Up from the trash that
Swallowed it.
Crack it open and take a sip
And let the sluts know who's running it.

All the things I've seen, local and overseas (metamorphosis)
Transformed me to a superfreak.
No, the change worked clean came week-to-week
Permeated my machine like a slow-drip leak.
(Well, I'm a superhero!)
Watch me hypnotize,
Pendulum for your eyes between my thighs (back at the lab)
You could watch that rise,
When the sunset gonna hit my stride.
Never let a lady straight take my dough
If you think you're mad now
(Well, I'm a super-ho!)
Well, I'm a cum-rag girl, keep your shit at home
Empty out my glands come back for more.
You gotta killer new 'do (puffy botox face)
Don't look to the past, it's been erased.
(We ain't having that now)
Not even a trace.
You found the place to fellate and I pick up the pace.

Are you looking for a thrill,
Candy?
I can taste (river)
Dripping from your panties.
We all getting so
Randy.
One more night,
Twisted by a little brandy.

My duty's
To save the party.
They come in threes-
My priorities are me and me and me!

Gather up in style at the hotel
Mini-bar (empty)
It's no motel no-tell.
Come on baby ride
Coattails.
(We'll get it free)
We're the kings of every castle.

Too trusting
I know these streets are mean.
Come join my team
Guess I could float you $20 if you're clean

I was sent to take the strip
Back from the grave you
Motherfuckers dropped it.
Keeping up the nasty shit
(Scare them straight) by the crew in it.
I was sent to save the strip
Up from the trash that
Swallowed it.
Crack it open and take a sip
And let the sluts know who's running it.

I was sent to take the strip
Back from the grave you
Motherfuckers dropped it.
Keeping up the nasty shit
(Scare them straight) by the crew in it.
I was sent to save the strip
Up from the trash that
Swallowed it.
Crack it open and take a sip
And let the sluts know who's running it.

    I believe "kill a new dude" is actually "killer new 'do"

    "puppy botox face" is "puffy botox face"

    "My, to tease, to save the party" is "My duty's to save the party"

    and filate = fellate

    ;)

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

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/
