(spoken)

I was looking at the chandelier. "Do you feel that way?" she asked. I was driving through Los Angeles getting some help. I didn't know Pema Chödrön was a girl. People sounded nuts. She had a sign: "I'm hungry, I'm homeless", and with a really pretty son.

(sung)

L.A. you are a mystery to me
When I get to you I can see
a million miles underwater,
destroy sharks in Long Beach

I'm on a long board in Florida
so far from where you are today
but anyways, I thought I'd call you up

...nothing much
how surfing's cool
the ocean air is beautiful
We ate oranges with a special pool
I think you'd think we're cool

In the mountains of Canada
you demanded a love song
On the shores of Orange County Beach
the filthy sand we walk on
I pray we get along

(spoken)

She hadn't asked for anything, but I gave her five bucks and it felt great. I thought "Women are such a bunch of idiots," but that's what I am. Are you one?

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/
