This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Homo sapiens a dying species
Poor sick dumb numb feeding faeces
Half-eaten starved beaten multiplying lying cheating
Lean mean unclean ammo for the gun-machine
Cannonfodder driven by fear
Last-class raw mass victims of the puppeteer
Human driftwood lepers pariah
Suicide bombers for the new messiah
Everybody do your part
Hope is life and fire to the heart
Rattle your chains
Never back down
Blow your brains
Stand your ground
Plutocratic rule and power
Rich fat small balls' final hour
Big last gulp end of reign
Flush dictators down the drain
Poor sick dumb numb feeding faeces
Half-eaten starved beaten multiplying lying cheating
Lean mean unclean ammo for the gun-machine
Cannonfodder driven by fear
Last-class raw mass victims of the puppeteer
Human driftwood lepers pariah
Suicide bombers for the new messiah
Everybody do your part
Hope is life and fire to the heart
Rattle your chains
Never back down
Blow your brains
Stand your ground
Plutocratic rule and power
Rich fat small balls' final hour
Big last gulp end of reign
Flush dictators down the drain

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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'
Dusty Springfield

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/
They sampled the drumroll at the beginning of 'Ikons' from the Xtort album and put in onto this song.
