Something told me to tell you
Not to tell me what to do
I am what I fucking am
Many have tried to change this man
Life's always been an uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like
Life's always been an uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like

Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me

Why do you do the shit you do?
I'm doing just what I do
No, not what I want to do
But what I've got to do, we're through
Life's always been uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like
Life's always been uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like

Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me

Something told me to tell you
Not to tell me what to do
I am what I fucking am
Many have tried to change this man
Life's always been uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like
Life's always been uphill fight
Some things I do you may not like

Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me

I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of this shit, motherfucker
I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of this shit
I'm sick of your shit

I'm out of my mind and you're driving me crazy

I'm out of my mind and you're driving me crazy

I'm out of my mind and you're driving me crazy

I'm out of my mind and you're driving me crazy

Don't give into me
Don't give into me
Don't give into me
Don't give into me

It's not the same, it's not the same
Some things are not the same anymore

Something told me to tell you
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me
Something told me to tell you
Don't give into me

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

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/
