Oh no! Was it worth it?
Starting now I'm starting over,
I'm gonna sleep with the next person I meet
Starting now I'm starting over,
You swore together forever now you're telling lies
Well tell me your worst, they got no, they got no concept of time.
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby oh
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
Oh no! Was it worth it?
Was it worth what you did to big business?
Was it worth?
Was it worth?
What your friends, put up their noses.
So starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
Well tell the new wave kids their make-up kits can find me where
Self pity gets a breath of fresh air.
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby oh
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
You set the watch, you're just time
To wreck my life, to bring back what I'd left behind
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby
A time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
Five years and you fell for a waiter
I'm sure he says, well he's an actor
You're acting like (you never tried, to take your life)
So starting now, I'm starting over
I'm throwing bottles, I'm, I'm taking showers
I'm going to sleep, I'm going to sleep
So starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
So starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
To play the game, get even, act my age.
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby oh
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
You set the watch, you're just in time
To wreck my life, to bring back what I'd left behind
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby
A time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
Oh no! Was it worth...
Was it worth what you did to your wrists?
Starting now I'm starting over,
I'm gonna sleep with the next person I meet
Starting now I'm starting over,
You swore together forever now you're telling lies
Well tell me your worst, they got no, they got no concept of time.
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby oh
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
Oh no! Was it worth it?
Was it worth what you did to big business?
Was it worth?
Was it worth?
What your friends, put up their noses.
So starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
Well tell the new wave kids their make-up kits can find me where
Self pity gets a breath of fresh air.
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby oh
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
You set the watch, you're just time
To wreck my life, to bring back what I'd left behind
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby
A time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
Five years and you fell for a waiter
I'm sure he says, well he's an actor
You're acting like (you never tried, to take your life)
So starting now, I'm starting over
I'm throwing bottles, I'm, I'm taking showers
I'm going to sleep, I'm going to sleep
So starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
So starting now I'm starting over (stop it)
To play the game, get even, act my age.
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby oh
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
You set the watch, you're just in time
To wreck my life, to bring back what I'd left behind
Tick tock, you're not a clock.
You're a time bomb baby, a time bomb baby
A time bomb baby, a time oh oh oh
Oh no! Was it worth...
Was it worth what you did to your wrists?

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”
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."

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,
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
a catchy song about the oh so familiar cheating woman. she's unstable (what she does to her wrists) and unfaithful, therefore a timebomb to whoever she is close to...
