Contact
She said, these wasp's nests in your head
These wasp's nests, these terminals in your head
These heart swells, these contacts in your head

Oh help no, these vessels
Our heart swells on these vessels
Our heart swells up, let's make them explode

Oh help no, these vessels
Our heart swells on these vessels
Our heart swells up let's make them explode

Oh, what the hell, she should've said
Oh, what the hell, we should've said
Our heart swells up, let's make them explode

These wasp's nests, these contacts in your head
Once again...
We could set it on fire for them
We could set it on fire for them
We could set it on fire for them
We could set it on fire for them, for them, for them, for them

Oh help no, these vessels
Our heart swells on these vessels
Our heart swells up let's make them explode

Oh, what the hell, she should've said
Oh, what the hell, we should've said
Our heart swells up, let's make them explode

Oh help no, these vessels
Our heart swells on these vessels
Our heart swells up let's make them explode

Oh what the hell,
We set it on fire
We set it on fire
We set it on fire

    My Interpretation

    Personally, it's about unreciprocated love, or circumstances that are unfair for one party.

    No matter how much they wish to validate the situation, the other person cannot cooperate. It's simply not true for them.

    'In Context She said, these terminals once again These wasp's nests, these terminals once again These heart swells, these contexts in your head'

    The desired circumstances are the 'context' which is referred to. 'Terminals' are just points, like airport terminals; sendoff locations, or 'terminals' in the brain that relay messages.

    In reference to the latter, she's talking about his brain signals and how they're being activated by the desires, by the want or longing to make the 'context' true. 'Wasps nests' are the stings or the pain inflicted by these constant desires that end up nowhere, with no results. 'Hearts swelling' are his feelings growing and growing, but with nowhere to belong, because they cannot be accepted. 'In context' is her approaching the present situation, where he is longing for 'contexts' in his head. They allude to the same thing, but exist in different planes to contrast it. In context is realistic and contexts in your head are idealistic.

    'Oh hell no, these vessels Our heart swells up, these vessels Our heart swells up, which makes us explode'

    Vessels -both in the brain and in the heart. Brain vessels, thinking too much of the situation. Excessive contemplation and desire. So much that the heart vessels 'swell' for what they long for. Both of them together eventually prove to be too much and 'explode'.

    'We could set it on fire for them'

    That's his wishful thinking again. 'Set it on fire' is the start of a relationship. 'Fire' also alludes to how passionate it could've been or how much the desire burns and longs for it to be so that it's a 'fire', which eventually leads to the 'explosion'.

    Just a personal interpretation. :]

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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/
