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.
Feel me a home
To crawl inside of you
And lay this heart, unsure
I'm sick of your sores
Yeah, but I'll always stay sitting
I'll go
I'm yours, yeah
And I'm your whore
Please leave me a taste
The fire, pleasure from my concern
But I'm a little late
I'm sick of your quirks, yeah
Because I'll always be my own, I . . .
I deserve a
A lollipop whore
Yeah, lollipop whore
A whore
(Haha, oh yeah, ah)
You're all I wanted
You'll always be true to me
You're all I ever wanted
Run, days of more
But I could complete it, yeah
I could come down
Yeah, well, what if I would spare?
Could circles count down?
But I could complete it, yeah
I could come down
She screamed more, loud, give me some more, yeah
The terrible silence is leading to injuries and sores
So what could you do?
She screamed love is such a strong word
I said what if we took a word
Deciphered the innocence
And, well, um, fucked
Say what could you do
She screamed more, loud, give me some more, yeah
The terrible silence is leading to injuries and sores
Say what I could do for you
And I tie my whore
Leading to something terrible
I scare myself, even now
What if we take away?
What if I take away?
Me and my whore
I scare myself
But I'm not ready to fuck her
Fuck her, fuck her, just to fuck her
I just can't think anyways
So give me my pussy you whore
(I'm standing here, I'm waiting)
When in doubt, oh
When in doubt, oh
When in doubt, just get down on your knees and suck me
When in doubt, oh
When in doubt, oh
When in doubt, just get down on your knees and suck
(And I fool no one even more)
And I tie my whore
Leading to something terrible
I scare myself (come on, you whore)
What if we take away
What if I take away
Me and my lifeless whore
I scare myself
I scare myself
To crawl inside of you
And lay this heart, unsure
I'm sick of your sores
Yeah, but I'll always stay sitting
I'll go
I'm yours, yeah
And I'm your whore
Please leave me a taste
The fire, pleasure from my concern
But I'm a little late
I'm sick of your quirks, yeah
Because I'll always be my own, I . . .
I deserve a
A lollipop whore
Yeah, lollipop whore
A whore

I scare myself
I scare myself

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,
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
