@[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.
And the clouds are red and pink like they're wearing a tube of lipstick
The Sun is dimming while dipping a toe into the Pacific
Just gimme a hot jacuzzi
A spliff and we'll watch a movie
I'm spiffy, man in a jiffy I'm lifted and living groovie
I'm a groupie to the good life
Looking for a taste of paradise
I don't need the whole pie
Just wanna have my little slice
I found the fountain of youth and went skinny dipping up in it
I pick up the lucky pennies, epiphanies every minute
I run the money to Coinstar and watch the cash from the ticket
I snatch my homies whatever they want at Denny's and kick it
'Til the mothafuckin' Sun rise
So many folks I love right here
But it hasn't been a good night
Until the shit gets kinda weird
I'm a groupie to the good life
Looking for a taste of paradise
I don't need the whole pie
Just wanna have my little slice
I'm a groupie to the good life
Looking for a taste of paradise
I don't need the whole pie
Just wanna have my little slice
I got a stylish private island inside of my mind the size of Hawaii
And when I'm vibing you're likely to find me deep in my psyche
Hiding out peeping a flying V of neon pelicans filling the psychedelic horizon like
Wow, what just happened?
I'll please have what he's having
And how can I come ride that wave?
Don't give a damn if I'm damp, I dance in the rain
I decided to celebrate like the sky is dumping champagne on me
Paint every clap of thunder as Heaven popping a bottle
Jump in and paddle the deepest puddles
Strap on my goggles
I gotta seek what I lack
When I'm weak, gotta act
I'm a freak, it's a fact
But I can't say that I mind
Gotta leave those thoughts behind
And I hop in my car and I bob in my seat
When I'm dropping to the beat as I mob the beach
And I stop and I park at the top of a cliff in the dark
And I'm digging on the stars in the sea
Shining like a fistful of diamonds
That somebody went and threw into the sky but they ricochet off
And a couple of 'em fell into the water and they sink the bottom
And I think that I saw some
But I blink and lost 'em
And I drink in the awesome view
Infinite kilometers of water and the tiny ships moving across 'em
If I'm getting money then I get it while I can
But if I'm not, I better live it up and dammit I demand
To give it every single breath I got inside of me and try to be the man
I'm a groupie to the good life
Looking for a taste of paradise
I don't need the whole pie
Just wanna have my little slice
I'm a groupie to the good life
Looking for a taste of paradise
I don't need the whole pie
Just wanna have my little slice
The Sun is dimming while dipping a toe into the Pacific
Just gimme a hot jacuzzi
A spliff and we'll watch a movie
I'm spiffy, man in a jiffy I'm lifted and living groovie
I'm a groupie to the good life
Looking for a taste of paradise
I don't need the whole pie

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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
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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
