Sometimes it seems
I've seen everything in this life
And I refuse to give in
Does anybody have some time left to be nice
To someone he doesn't know, but
Everybody takes what everybody needs
Everybody's peaking at some other's seeds
And hearts filled with envy
Won't give anything to relieve
Unless you sign the receipt

Are we coming to the point of no return
Are we still being fearless taking pride
In the moment the curtain is drawn
We're giving the stuff to the spawn
The show must go on

Sometimes it seems
I've seen everything in this life
But then I'm glad to be wrong
When something happens and suddenly I feel surprised
Not knowing what's to be done, cause
Everybody's being lavish and at ease and
Everybody suffers from mental disease
If hope hasn't vanished there's something that we can believe in
Until we get the meaning

    It's about the downfall of society, and how we have to pass it on to our kids.

    "We're giving the stuff to the spawn The show must go on"

    Our kids are going to have to deal with this crap when they grow up.

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/
