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"
*(Yuk)*
Uh, uh, ah. Uh-huh
What? Where my ladies at?
Uh. Where my ladies at?
Let's do this.....uh, Menage A Trios style.
It's the 90's, and regular sex is played out.
I need two women, at one time!
One time!
Verse 1 *(Yukmouth)*
What?
Uh.
Let's take it back, to the day we first met
I see you and your girls buyin purses
Lookin like two Miss Universe's
Make a nigga want to curse "Shit!"
Who them two bitches, let me go spit a couple of verses, see if I can
Work it
I dropped some money on purpose
You picked it up, an said "I dropped some"
Stop frontin you can tell from my watch that I got somethin
An that I squat somethin nice, pop somethin nice
Up in the air so elegant
You can tell I pimp but that's irrelavent
An I can tell by the way you and yo girl hang tight
That why'all be doin why'all thug thang at night
Somethin like dikes
Ain't nothin like.... two girls makin love to each other
Ain't nothin like.... two girls bustin nuts up on each other
Ain't nothin like.... two girls at the club, rubbin on each other
Ain't nothin like.... two girls kissin and huggin on each other
Ain't nothin like.... two girls juss suckin on you like a sucka
Ain't nothin like.... 'cause we fuckin each other, in a Menage A Trios.
Chorus *(Kira)* 2x

I want you and your girl to come by
I like to do Menage A Trios
I like it when you do me, do me.
Verse 2 *(Tela)*
Me and you Menage A Trios

You want me to set it up
Get that pussy wet it up

(Spend the night!)
Spend the night wit me

Verse 3 *(Yukmouth)*
Now we can kick it in my 4 point 6
Bangin "It's All On A Bitch"
You lickin my dick, wit yo ass up in the air she lickin yo clit

You wonder why they call me Hugh Heff
'cause I keep two chicks
Runnin around butt naked in my duplex
Screamin who's next
Yup in this life that I'm livin
I can't escape I'm in love wit two women
Swimmin in two women at once
Or I can relax, juss hittin on blunts
While why'all lickin on cunts, get shit crunk
I visioned it once, then tweedle-dumb I'm in a threesome
Wit me some bad chicks, hungry fo dick so I'ma feed 'em
We some fools off the cool
Gone off Xtacy and mushrooms in the room
I can do it slow, or I can room-a-zoom-zoom... BOOM!
Into that pussy like a bullet wound
Put on my Fruit of the Looms
And then I creep out the room

'cause if you baby daddy find out what we doin you doomed

*(Chorus)* 2x
Spend the night wit me
I'll spend the night with you

Don't care what we do
Juss as long as I'm with you.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
No Surprises
Radiohead

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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/
