The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
What's That You're Doing?
Girl I Like What You Do To Me
What's That You're Doing?
'Cos It Makes No Kind Of Sense To Me
You Can Make Me Feel So Proud
You Can Make Me Holler Ow!
Girl You Make Me Want To Dance And Sing
My Mind Is Blown And You're The Blame
I Say It's Sunnin' When There's Rain
I Jump By Leaps And Bounds, Just Call My Name
What's That You're Saying?
Girl I Like The Way You Talk To Me
What's That You're Saying?
Even If It's Wrong Girl I Do Agree
Girl You Make Me Feel So Small
Though I Might Stand Six Feet Tall
What You've Got Cuts Me Right Down To Size
I'll Be The Last, You'll Be The First
I'll Do My Best To Quench Your Thirst
I'm The Lucky One Who Keeps The Prize
Girl I Like What You're Doing
Baby Do It Some More
Girl I Like What You're Doing

Do It Some More

'Cos It Makes No Kind Of Sense To Me
You Can Fill My Appetite
Without Me Taking Up A Bite
Never Knew That Love Could Fill You Up
You're Much Too Good For Me To Pass
I'm For The Taking, You Just Ask
We Can Make It Stick With Love And Luck
Girl I Like What You're Doing
Baby Do It Some More
Girl I Like What You're Doing

What's That I'm Feeling?
That Sensation's Such A Mystery
I Know What It's Thrilling
And I Hope This Feeling Lasts Eternally
Girl You Make Me Scream And Shout
Tell Me What It's All About
You Make Me Give In Without A Fight
I Don't Have No Words To Say
You Can Fill It Anyway
And Everything You Do Will Turn Out Alright
Girl I Like What You're Doing

Holiday

@[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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
