@[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.
It's been a while since I've seen you smile
But now you've come back again
Came into the room and you saw my girl
And you asked her how long it's been
"A year" she said and you shook your head
Said "I'm surprised it's gone on that long"
Baby, baby, baby bitch
For words I am at a loss
Baby, baby, baby bitch
I'm better now, please fuck off
What else you gonna say when while you're back on your stay?
Maybe something, maybe nothing, we'll see
It's just too bad, you're beautiful, I guess
I wasn't for you and you weren't for me
Baby, baby, baby bitch
Please slip back into yourself
Baby, baby, baby bitch
Go conquer someone else
People say, "How beautiful, how sweet, how kind"
You're perfect, you've got nothing to hide
But I, for one, have seen the sun
And the bitch that you've locked up inside
Got fat, got angry, started hating myself
Wrote "Birthday Boy" for you, babe
Now I'm skinny and sick and paranoid
Without a cent to my name
Baby, baby, baby bitch
Fuck you, you stinkin' ass ho
Most beauty I've seen
You come from a dream
But I can't close my eyes anymore
No, I can't close my eyes anymore
No, I can't close my eyes anymore
But now you've come back again
Came into the room and you saw my girl
And you asked her how long it's been
"A year" she said and you shook your head
Said "I'm surprised it's gone on that long"
Baby, baby, baby bitch
For words I am at a loss
Baby, baby, baby bitch
I'm better now, please fuck off
What else you gonna say when while you're back on your stay?
Maybe something, maybe nothing, we'll see
It's just too bad, you're beautiful, I guess
I wasn't for you and you weren't for me
Baby, baby, baby bitch
Please slip back into yourself
Baby, baby, baby bitch
Go conquer someone else
People say, "How beautiful, how sweet, how kind"
You're perfect, you've got nothing to hide
But I, for one, have seen the sun
And the bitch that you've locked up inside
Got fat, got angry, started hating myself
Wrote "Birthday Boy" for you, babe
Now I'm skinny and sick and paranoid
Without a cent to my name
Baby, baby, baby bitch
Fuck you, you stinkin' ass ho
Most beauty I've seen
You come from a dream
But I can't close my eyes anymore
No, I can't close my eyes anymore
No, I can't close my eyes anymore

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,

“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
this song seems like such an elliott smith song to me
THANK YOU! It's my favorite specifically because of that fact. :)
@J___P I thought exactly the same thing.
i like the comment suggesting that the bitch is a drug, although it's not.
i also agree with not having any friends who get ween. i've figured out that its because one song doesn't do it. you need to make them sit and listen to an album from start to finish.
whoever this woman is i hope she realizes how loathsome she is and then is blessed with immortality.
@jubaljam
@jubaljam I agree about needing to listen to whole albums to get into, or get, Ween. I've only been into them a few years, and initially I kept checking out individual tunes, and they always didn't make sense to me... then I listened to GodWeenSatan The Oneness and my mind was blown. Now I'm obsessed. I troll the internet for live stuff and they never disappoint. Love Ween!
@jubaljam
The singer's ex is back in town after they've been apart for a while. It was a painful breakup. They were once in love but now he's with a new girl so his ex is basically a bitch to him. Despite how awful she can be to him he still misses her but knows things can never go back to how they were.
Ween are awesome.........if anyone actually listens to Ween, your awesome too....
good...i thought i was the only one who thought this sounded like an elliott smith song
People say, "How beautiful, how sweet, how kind" You're perfect, you've got nothing to hide But I, for one, have seen the sun And the bitch that you've locked up inside Got fat, got angry, started hating myself Wrote "Birthday Boy" for you babe Now I'm skinny and sick and paranoid Without a cent to my name
that references how the boy started doing a lot of cocaine [references to cocaine all thorough ween's music] after the horrible relationship.
i can sympathize...
ok so this song is sweet as hell. it is really easy to understand what it is about and is amazing. jason schwartzmann from coconut records suggested it to me through his XM radio takeover with rivers cuomo from weezer. i was searching forever until i found it in a jank record store. has anyone seen the cover for this album? its deceivingly skanky!
Well, I wish you guys knew the story behind this because it is much simpler than a lot of you are making it out to be. This song, along with Birthday Boy, and Sarah, and a couple of others are about Gene Ween's former on and off again girlfriend Sarah. She broke up with him on his birthday, then he wrote Birthday Boy. At some point they got back together or he just used an old song on Pure Guava and that was Sarah, which is also about her. Anyways, after she broke up with him he got depressed and started getting fat, as it says in the song and can be seen from pictures of him from the early 90's. Then he got into some drugs and got really really skinny. There is only picture I know of from that time and it is just sickly looking. Then he got fat again and Chocolate and Cheese came out. If you watch the video for Voodoo Lady you can still see that he is a little chubby as he was loosing the weight again at that time.
Anyways it's just about her coming back to him and being a bitch to the girl he is with and to him and him just telling her off.
@sparky565 I don't think she's the ex in the Baby bitch song, it doesn't add up that way, even though they had an on and off relationship
Sparky565 is 100% correct. This song is about Gener's on again off again girlfriend and now ex-wife, Sarah Poten. They married in 1999 and divorced in 2003, although they had been dating since the early 90s I believe. They have one child together. He also wrote "Sarah" and "Birthday Boy" about her, and possibly some others.
This song was written during a time Gene was broken up with her, and dating someone else. It's kind of funny that he married the subject of this song a few years after it came out.
It's about Barret Christie for certain. Gener said it himself at Bonnaroo 3. I was there to hear it unlike everyone else, because they were at Primus.
Was that not "Birthday Boy"?
