This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You keep pushing me away
In spite of what you say
I found out yesterday that I've
Been wasting all my time
Trying to make you smile
Trying to make this seem worthwhile
You've been pushing me around
In spite of what I do
Trying to make things good for you
Take your economy car and your suitcase
Take your psycho little dogs
Take it all away
You've been racing through my mind
You're picking up in speed
You're driving recklessly
It's like a car crash happening on my street
Broken bodies at my feet
And sirens on the way
They're too late
'Cause nobody's going to save us
We're a rubbernecker's dream
We're burning gasoline
Go
Take your economy car and your suitcase
Take your psycho little dogs
Take it all away
And go
Go ahead and destroy this
Better come with an army
Are you feeling, feeling okay, baby?
Uh huh
Na na
Na na, na na, na
Na na, na na, na na, na na, na na
Take your economy car and your suitcase
Take your psycho little dogs
Take it all away
In spite of what you say
I found out yesterday that I've
Been wasting all my time
Trying to make you smile
Trying to make this seem worthwhile
You've been pushing me around
In spite of what I do
Trying to make things good for you
Take your economy car and your suitcase
Take your psycho little dogs
Take it all away
You've been racing through my mind
You're picking up in speed
You're driving recklessly
It's like a car crash happening on my street
Broken bodies at my feet
And sirens on the way
They're too late
'Cause nobody's going to save us
We're a rubbernecker's dream
We're burning gasoline
Go
Take your economy car and your suitcase
Take your psycho little dogs
Take it all away
And go
Go ahead and destroy this
Better come with an army
Are you feeling, feeling okay, baby?
Uh huh
Na na
Na na, na na, na
Na na, na na, na na, na na, na na
Take your economy car and your suitcase
Take your psycho little dogs
Take it all away

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Page

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.
THis song kicks. Love it. Take your psycho little dogs. lol
Pretty obvious, a relationship that can't be saved so just help me try and forget it ever happened.
great metaphors here, especially the crash. and i can totally relate to the psycho little dogs.
Brilliant arrangement: the sped up funeral march part after the "crash" part is very funny!
The meaning: pretty straight up stuff about a relationship where give and take is non-existent, the relationship that's about to crash...
Totally straightforward, but I love the way he goes about it: It's like a car crash happening on my street Broken bodies at my feet And sirens on the way
They're too late 'Cause nobody's going to save us We're a rubbernecker's dream We're burning gasoline
Probably my favorite song on this album, 2nd being "Wheels", which should have been a single!
but there is a happier point at the end of the song which people havent mentioned.. "And go Go ahead and destroy this Better come with an army Are you feeling, feeling okay, baby?"
The guy is letting her go, she will leave but the whole thing wont upset/"destroy" him - maybe she is shocked that he doesnt seem upset where the line "Are you feeling, feeling okay, baby?" comes in -- i can imagine the guy smiling here. like hes almost 'caught her out/unexpected' because hes not showing his upset
This is probably my favorite song on Pressure Chief. Good album. Cake is absolutely an awesome band to see live, by the way.
i think 'alpinist00' is right about the give and take consistency of this song. hes obviously giving and shes just taking and not giving anything in return. and it obviously takes two people to make it work. both people need to give and take equally other wise .. well its obvious. its such a great song. this band doesnt get enough attention at all.
snugasagrub, I kind of disagree with your interpretation of those lyrics at the end, but I do find them puzzling. The "Better come with an army" line makes it sound like he's going to try his hardest to keep the relationship going, to oppose her attempt to "destroy it", which kind of goes against what's said during the rest of the song.
I've always thought of it as being said sarcastically/cynically, but after thinking about it I'm not sure that makes sense either. Hmm...
I think it's a snapshot of an argument. He's yelling - go, go, take everything and get out of here... and as the anger's expressed and he says that it's too late, she breaks down... And he still really does care, so he backs off and asks about her, but it might be too late by now...
