Crack back,
Dog's tail,
House rules,
Rusted nails

Bare foot,
Cold flaw,
Black bricks,
Lock the door

Hey, hey
When you call my name
Time to get away,
When I hear you say
Hey, hey
Now my bed's been made
I can feel the world as it
Goes crumbling through my hand

Step back,
You don't know me
Step back,
You don't own me
Step back,
You don't even tell so,
Step the hell away

Step back,
You don't know me
Step back,
You don't own me
Step back,
You don't even tell so,
Step the hell away

Rip the heart off
Your Sunday's best
Black and blue
Across my chest

Dirty things
On your fingertips
Damn the day
He watched you slip

Hey, hey
When you call my name
Time to get away,
When I hear you say
Hey, hey
Now my bed's been made
I can feel the world as it
Goes crumbling through my hand

Step back,
You don't know me
Step back,
You don't own me
Step back,
You don't even tell so,
Step the hell away

Step back,
You don't know me
Step back,
'Cause you don't own me
Step back,
You don't even tell so,
Step the hell away

(If you could see my face,
It wouldn't make a difference)

You don't know me,
You don't own me
You don't know me, no
You don't know me,
You don't own me
You don't know me, no

Step the hell away

Step back,
You don't know me
Step back,
You don't own me
Step back,
You don't even tell so,
Step the hell away

Step back,
You don't know me
Step back,
'Cause you don't own me
Step back,
You don't even tell so,
Step the hell away, now
Step

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

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/

Magical
