This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
No need to pull some weight around
But then I ain't gonna just sit here
Like a clown and just wait around
I'm taking what I've earned to be taking
And you know you only get stronger
When your heart is aching, oh love
But me I've had enough of
Walking around for some red tape
You know it's just a fake
And I say it's a big mistake
And we're all human
So there's no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
We'll surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
Just a little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
Come on, now
What shall we choose to be our tactics
In this age of computer taxes, oh no
When in this new era to come
We shall be organized and not supervised
From the physical to the spiritual
All our works will be so critical
Our offense and mental will soar
And you know that this ornamental will be so pure
And we won't sweat the expense
In the new millennium
We are raising through the fog
Helping the healing God
The next awakening is you
And we're all human
There's no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
We'll surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
A little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
Come on, now
The next awakening is you
The next awakening is you
The next awakening is you
The next awakening is you
But then I ain't gonna just sit here
Like a clown and just wait around
I'm taking what I've earned to be taking
And you know you only get stronger
When your heart is aching, oh love
But me I've had enough of
Walking around for some red tape
You know it's just a fake
And I say it's a big mistake
And we're all human
So there's no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
We'll surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
Just a little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
Come on, now
What shall we choose to be our tactics
In this age of computer taxes, oh no
When in this new era to come
We shall be organized and not supervised
From the physical to the spiritual
All our works will be so critical
Our offense and mental will soar
And you know that this ornamental will be so pure
And we won't sweat the expense
In the new millennium
We are raising through the fog
Helping the healing God
The next awakening is you
And we're all human
There's no need to be taking it
With some honor and harmony
We'll surely be making it
With a little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
A little bit of honor and harmony, yeah
Come on, now
The next awakening is you
The next awakening is you
The next awakening is you
The next awakening is you

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
i would go with blues as opposed to reggae. but at the same time, g. love doesnt really have a very definable sound, which is what makes him so appealing to me. you can never quite put your finger on it, but it all sounds so damn good.
