@[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.
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
Im thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Cuz you'll be back with me then
I'm carryin the weight
The weight of the world
That doesnt wanna wait for me
It spins me all around
And then it spits me out
Recycled like a christmas tree
You picked me up when no one would
Convince me baby its all good
You're doing it again the way you always could
And now everything is understood
I never had a girl like this
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
Im thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Cuz you'll be back with me then
the walls are closing in its closing time again
I see it through my champagne glasses
Terrified of how the time is flyin now
At least we're sittin in first class
Never wanna be like them
I hit the city by 3
And the bottle by 4
Im thinkin about the shit that I pulled the night before
And by the party at midnight everything is cool again
Cuz you'll be back with me then
Im carryin the weight of the world
That doesnt wanna wait for me
Im carryin the weight of the world
Your carrying me
I never had a girl like this
I hit the bottle by 6 and another cigarette
I'll probably do things that I know i should regret
Any by the party at midnight everything is cool by then
Cuz you'll be back with me then [3x]

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.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/
