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”
I'm money broke and it's no joke can't core use the rope this time (Hey!!)
Nuckel up buckel up the ride´s getting rough but I will not loose my mind (Hey!!)
I asked 'em if I could come in and the first thing they said was no (Hey!!)
If I can't come in that's mean that I can't come back that means I got nowhere to go
[Repeat x2]
I'm a hyena fighting for lion share
Sometimes the lions share ain't there
Absent from political authority an animal I've become (Hey !!)
Total disorder and confusion is the life style that I run (Hey !!)
Permit me to do what I want and I will I'm a nomad to travel (Hey !!)
Concrete class stone and gravel
[Repeat x2]
I'm a hyena fighting for lion share
Sometimes the lions share ain't there
Every time I turn around it´s the same sad story
Getting ganked I wish it could end in life's commissary
I'm a bad missionary with a wicked message I sent
Who can I trust in a world of greed
When I'm taught to take and not to give
Who can I trust when I'm taught to take and not to give
I'm money broke and it's no joke can't core use the rope this time (Hey!!)
Nuckel up buckel up the ride´s getting rough but I will not loose my mind (Hey!!)
Permit me to do what I want and I will I'm a nomad to travel (Hey!!)
Concrete class stone and gravel
I'm a hyena fighting for lion share
Sometimes the lions share ain't there
Sometimes the lions share ain't there...shit
Nuckel up buckel up the ride´s getting rough but I will not loose my mind (Hey!!)
I asked 'em if I could come in and the first thing they said was no (Hey!!)
If I can't come in that's mean that I can't come back that means I got nowhere to go
[Repeat x2]
I'm a hyena fighting for lion share
Sometimes the lions share ain't there

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Just A Little Lovin'

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/

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.
Dont you guys think its "Who could I trust in a world of greed?" insted of "Who could I trust in a world of green?" It sounds more fitting to the whole lyric, do you feel the same? great fucking song btw :D
