Think I saw her for the first time maybe in a news stand
She was picking a mag and dressed oblique
She called me baby, and was a mean lady with the song on the radio
So I told her I was rich, then she asked could I use a dirty bitch? (of course)

[Chorus]
Then she said, 'No one loves me' neither do I
You get what you give,
I give goodbye
And if I should vanish
Don't get caught off guard
Don't hold it against me
Unless it gets hard

(Oh, oi, oo, oop! Aaawhhha, yea, aaawhhha, that's right)

Well if sex is a weapon, then smash, boom, pow,
How ya like me now?
You can't always do it right, you can always do whats left
So I told her I was trash, she winked and laughed and said I already know
I've got a beautiful place to put your face' and she was right,

[Chorus]

Cutting her loose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, your gonna lose control
Cut me a noose, I'm ready to go
People in the world, you're gonna lose

I know how to burn with passion
Hold nothing back for future ration
Give all you are, do not make haste
Savor every single taste

You get, cut

I know how to be controlled
Do what they said, son, watch your tongue
Quick to react, to break the box
Turn on queue, as your cell door locks
Behind you

I know how to be lost in lust
Not because you should, but because you must
It burns white hot, and so climbs the mile
This lightening strike isn't always kind

So use me up
Use me up

    A few things... I don't think we're analyzing all of Josh's poetry to it's maximum potential. THe reason I love QOTSA lyrics and TCV lyrics especially is because Josh adds amusing plays on words and double entendres in all his songs. A few things that haven't been mentioned that I thought I should bring to your attention...

    "you can't always do right, you can always do what's LEFT" (instead of "right" or correct. Just a little funny play on words he threw in)

    "So I told her I was trash, so she winked & laughed and said I already know..." Earlier in the song he told her he was rich so he could convince her to have sex with him. Here, he's admitting he was full of shit. But she said she already knew so obviously she didn't care anyways. This song is entirely about have sex for the fun of it and giving into your desires.

    "I know how to burn with passion Hold nothing back for future ration Give all you are, do not make haste Savor every single taste you get Cut

    I know how to beat control Do opposite of what you're told Quick to react, to break the box Turn on queue, as your cell door locks Behind you

    I know how to be lost in lust Not because you should, but because you must It burns white hot, and so clouds the mind This lightning strike isn't always kind"

    This part of the song is so deep! I guess in a nutshell, he's saying not to get caught up in relationships that aren't going anywhere or you'll feel trapped (in a cell for example) The last stanza is my favourite: Lust is a natural thing that is completely uncontrollable. Whether you control your actions or not is something completely different. Lust clouds your judgement and makes it impossible to make decent choices and it's not always a good thing to have because you can't control when you lust or who you lust for.

    TCV!! \m/

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
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.
