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/
Verse 1: Thrill Da Playa
Come on, I'm speakin' up
All the big-booty girls in the club
Wussup with the table-top?
Get up on, and make that booty drop
If you want this pay
You got to work baby, I ain't goin' any way
It ain't 'bout no hand-out
It's 'bout g-strings and booty-cheeks hangin' out
'Cause I'ma get my money's worth
So make that booty, hips and tongue work!
'Cause I'll nickel-and-dime ya
If you fail to work what's behind ya
But if the dance get felt,
Then I'll stick a dub in ya garter belt
So make these ends
'Cause it's me, and some of my big-money friends
But ya can't be no flop
Just stop - and make that booty ...
(DR-ROP!!) {True dat, true dat!} C'mon, c'mon, just make that booty ...
(DR-ROP!!) {True dat, true dat!} Don't try to flaunt, just make that booty ...

Verse 2: Thrill Da Playa
Drop it on one, then on two
What you gon' do?
Don't hold that wallet
There's room on the floor for the both of us
And this my last chance
Before I dip to get this lap-dance
And they playin' the funk
Work that skirt and make that booty jump
Shake it down turn around
Now touch the ground
Go 'head and do it
And I'ma get a lil' closer to it
It's plenty head room
So work that thing like we in the bedroom
Work what you got
Get on the dance floor and make that booty ...
(DR-ROP!!) {True dat, true dat!} C'mon, c'mon, just make that booty ...

(DR-ROP!!) {True dat, true dat!}
[Go 'head and do it!]
[Shake it baby don't stop!]
Verse 3: Thrill Da Playa
Shake it, baby, don't stop
On the dance floor or on the table-top
And you're aaight!
See if you can make my nature rise
You got the equipment
Now you need just a lil' commitment
You bring that milkshake and the Puddin Tame
And I'll bring the g-string
And a lil' bit of extra flow
Sit and stare and watch that booty go
Come on, I'm speakin' up
All the big-booty girls in the club
Don't try to flex
One time for Magic City AND Rolexx
'Cause them the spots
To stop - and make that booty ...
(DR-ROP!!) {True dat, true dat!} C'mon, c'mon, just make that booty ...
(DR-ROP!!) {True dat, true dat!} Don't try to flaunt, just make that booty ...

Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Somewhere Only We Know
Keane
Keane
Per the FAQ on Keane's website, Keane's drummer Richard Hughes, stated the following:
"We've been asked whether "Somewhere Only We Know" is about a specific place, and Tim has been saying that, for him, or us as individuals, it might be about a geographical space, or a feeling; it can mean something individual to each person, and they can interpret it to a memory of theirs... It's perhaps more of a theme rather than a specific message... Feelings that may be universal, without necessarily being totally specific to us, or a place, or a time..."
With the nostalgic sentiment and the overall tone of the song, I think Keane is attempting to express a Portuguese term known as 'saudade', which does not have a direct English translation but roughly means "that which we remember because it is gone."

Zombie
Cranberries, The
Cranberries, The
"Zombie" is about the ethno-political conflict in Ireland. This is obvious if you know anything of the singer (Dolores O'Riordan)'s Irish heritage and understood the "1916" Easter Rising reference.
"Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken
-
Another mother's breaking
Heart is taking over"
Laments the Warrington bomb attacks in which two children were fatally injured on March 23rd, 1993. Twelve year old Tim Parry was taken off life support with permission from his mother after five days in the hospital, virtually braindead.
"But you see it's not me
It's not my family"
References how people who are not directly involved with the violence feel about it. They are "zombies" without sympathy who refuse to take action while others suffer.
LOL..."no comments." The lyrics are obvious. It's about....well....a booty. And apparently it's a booty-licious :) Can't get into the "milkshake" reference 'cause it makes me think of lactation, but love sexual songs like these. Anything to get the blood pumping through the body. For me, these songs negate the need for tequila. And it's not just the females with the booties! Mmmm mmmmm mmmmm
