This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Red and green was the color of her dress
Manipulation
Pale blue was the color of her eyes
Manipulation
Yellow yellow, was her hair
Orange sunburst, red-hot glare
Manipulation
Manipulation
And you can feel her madness
She will call you out
watch out for her dark side
and you'll soon figure out
She'll straighten you
and she's got you, got you
Red and green was the color of the ground
Manipulation
Pale blue was the color of the steel
Manipulation
Yellow yellow was her hair
Icy grey, was her glare
Manipulation
Manipulation
And you can feel her madness
see right through her smile
don't you turn your back and
you'll soon figure out, so run on
She'll straighten you
and she's got you, got you
Red and green was the color of the money in her hand
Pale blue were the color of the flowers on his casket
Yellow yellow was her hair
icy grey was her glare
Manipulation
Manipulation
And you see her sadness
She will call you out
watch out for her dark side
and you'll soon figure out, so run on
She'll straighten you
and she's got you, got you
Manipulation
Pale blue was the color of her eyes
Manipulation
Yellow yellow, was her hair
Orange sunburst, red-hot glare
Manipulation
Manipulation
And you can feel her madness
She will call you out
watch out for her dark side
and you'll soon figure out
She'll straighten you
and she's got you, got you
Red and green was the color of the ground
Manipulation
Pale blue was the color of the steel
Manipulation
Yellow yellow was her hair
Icy grey, was her glare
Manipulation
Manipulation
And you can feel her madness
see right through her smile
don't you turn your back and
you'll soon figure out, so run on
She'll straighten you
and she's got you, got you
Red and green was the color of the money in her hand
Pale blue were the color of the flowers on his casket
Yellow yellow was her hair
icy grey was her glare
Manipulation
Manipulation
And you see her sadness
She will call you out
watch out for her dark side
and you'll soon figure out, so run on
She'll straighten you
and she's got you, got you

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/

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.
