This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I dunno what you heard about me,
But you aint gettin a smirnoff for free.
You can sit yourself on my knee,
But keep your hands off my P.I.N.T
Now sharon, shes in the pub shes pullin the pints
And pullin the punters if she thinks the price is right
Shes into nuts and gin with slim line tonic
She plucked out her eyebrow n drew a line on it
I don’t buy her a drink, I just get her some pork scratchins
Keep her off my pint cos I think her warts catchin (urgh)
It's pub quiz night n its bad for my health
She asked me 21 questions and there all about herself
She likes my hair, she likes my car, shes in the daily sport
I don’t understand a single word because she comes from york
I'm not that bloke that’s only tryna get her into bed, (nope)
I'm that bloke that’s only tryin cos im off my head (yep)
We can leave now if your startin to get bored
We’ll take the bus home because my nova’s not insured
Look love its simple if your sittin with me
Sip your drink but don’t touch my P.I.N.T
(haha)
I dunno what you heard about me,
But you aint gettin a smirnoff for free.
You can sit yourself on my knee,
But keep your hands off my P.I.N.T
Bur-bur-bur-bur-burn unittttt! (hahaha)
F-i-f-t-y pence that’s me,
I work in the burn unit infirmary
NHS pention 'til im sixty three
And you no that im representin' kings Langley..
F-i-f-t-y pence thats me,
I'm a nature loving geezer you can find me in the tree,
I'm accidently known and locally accepted
Get off my pint!
So now you no about me
Yea love got my reebok classics on, (wee)
I'm 'bout to show you why my pint hand is quite strong
You're not wrong if you think I got a lazy eye,
It's 'cos I had a mishap with a steak 'n kidney pie (oops)
I down a pint the same way I down a glass of water (slurp)
I swear I didn’t know this bird was the landlords daughter
BURN, U, N-I-Tizzy,
I bumped my head and now im feelin dizzy
I've got people in Watford that no how I get down
Got a bird in Hemel,
A few mates in town,
I've got a job in Mcdonalds and i'm not messin around
I've got a Big Mac, Mcflurry’s and a quarter pound-er (haha)
Just put it on my tab,
Pick up a doner at millennium kebab, for closin time
And about the fighting
I've got a beer proof vest to avoid the pinting, pinting
I dunno what you heard about me,
But you aint gettin a smirnoff for free.
You can sit yourself on my knee,
But keep your hands off my P.I.N.T
Yeah
Now in Hollywood they say there's no business like show business,
Well in the pub dave said there's no business like the dough business...
And he’s a baker
See if I talk really fast I sound like a prat but if you listen real fast I don’t gotta slow down
Haha..
Yea..

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.
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
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.

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
Excellent!
A brillaint use of 50 cent's sexist crap which passes as music...
50 pence is a genius.
BURN UNIT ..thats all
