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.
Yeah-yeah
Mm
Yeah-yeah
I'm not your everyday, 'round the way
Don't go bar-hoppin', chillin' on the block
On a cell phone frontin'
Never that, 'cause I'm not that kinda girl (no, not me)
I need to know how you roll
And how you get down, no drama
Money in the bank
Take me home and meet your mama
Can ya handle that?
'Cause I'm that kinda girl
I'm that kinda girl
Boy you ain't impressin' me
With your jewelry, your designer clothes
Or the games that you try to play
Think you need to know
I got my own
Don't need you for your dough
Hearin' me, maybe then we can flow
Let me know
Make me smile, maybe we can chill
Keep it real, show me something I can feel
'Cause I'm not your average, ordinary type
Could you be that kinda guy I like?
I'm not your everyday, 'round the way (I like)
Don't go bar-hoppin', chillin' on the block
On a cell phone frontin' (that's not me, baby)
Never that, 'cause I'm not that kinda girl
Not that kind girl
I need to know how you roll
And how you get down, no drama (no drama)
Money in the bank
Take me home and meet your mama (meet your mama)
Can ya handle that?
'Cause I'm that kinda girl
I'm that kinda girl
I'ma be up at the spot, chilling with my crew
We'll be hanging out, gettin' a little late
You start bugging out
I don't think it's fair (no fair)
You don't like the clothes I wear
How I do my hair
I don't really care
But it's not for you
And I ain't got nothin' to prove
There can't be any us
If there can't be any trust
Nothin' to discuss, no doubt
I'm not that kinda girl to let you play me out
I'm not your everyday, 'round the way
Don't go bar-hoppin', chillin' on the block
On a cell phone frontin' (I'm not the one)
Never that, 'cause I'm not that kinda girl
Not that kinda girl, no, no
I need to know how you roll
And how you get down, no drama (how do you roll?)
Money in the bank
Take me home and meet your mama
Can ya handle that? (Meet your mama)
'Cause I'm that kinda girl
I'm that kinda girl, and I'm that kinda girl
You might take me shopping
But I'm not your property (no, baby)
If I don't like it, I decide it
I can make it on my own, yeah (own)
As long as we disagree to agree
Down for you and you're down for me
Baby, I'll put you on and we can build a love so strong (build a love so strong)
I'm not your everyday, 'round the way (yeah)
Don't go bar-hoppin', chillin' on the block (please believe it)
(Please believe it, baby) on a cell phone frontin'
Never that, 'cause I'm not that kinda girl
(Need to know the kind of girl I am, darlin')
I need to know how you roll
And how you get down, no drama (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Money in the bank
Take me home and meet your mama
Can ya handle that?

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/
