The radio's on
But I'm sittin' in the backyard
The feeling isn't gone
Oh, you know it's going to be so hard
To do what I've got to do
When the rooster next door says "Cock-a-doodle do"
I'll forget about him

I'll forget about him (Don't worry)
I'll forget about him (You betcha)
I'll forget about him

The flowers are in bloom
Well it just makes me more lonely
There's too much damn room
For me and for me only
I always thought that my love was enough
Now I know that it's going to be rough rough rough
To forget about him

I'll forget about him (Don't worry)
I'll forget about him (I'll do it)
I'll forget about him

Well have you forgotten,
have you forgotten yet?
No, not yet
The sun's on the horizon
Goin' down, down

Baby, where you goin'
Hey, where you goin'
Honey, where you goin'
Hey, when you comin' back
When you comin' back?

You're just a speck moving through the fields
When you comin' back, back

There's a boy up the road
And he wants to take me out some
Well he doesn't know
That I'm not gonna be too much fun
'Cause when he kisses me I'm gonna cry
I do believe that I'm gonna have to die
To forget about him

I'll forget about him (I'll do it)
I'll forget about him (Don't worry)
I'll forget about him

If I forget about him I'll be on easy street
And my feet will walk with a breezy beat
If I forget about, forget about, forget about him
If I forget about him and I'm gonna do it
And the whole crazy world is gonna be brand new
I'll forget a-, forget a-, forget about him

Well have you forgotten,
have you forgotten yet?
No, not yet
The sun's on the horizon going down, down, down, down

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

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”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

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/
