Two lovers stop for kisses on a wall
She asked him, "Never leave me"
He tells her that he won't

But the boy is young and foolish and knows it all
And he puts it about when he goes out
Stories they get told
And stories, yeah stories get told

It's in his nature, his misbehavior and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toes
It's in his nature, his misbehavior, and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toes

And these lovers trip
And stumble down the road
And on the grass they fumble round
Like a flower their love grows

And by the flower grows a weed
And not the kind you smoke
It raises up its ugly head
Our lovers are in a choke hold
Two lovers, two lovers in a hold

It's in his nature, his misbehavior and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toes
It's in his nature, his misbehavior and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he just keeps her on her toes

And I bet a bad thought don't cross her mind
And if it does, she just discards it 'till it's gone away
I bet of all of her, she sees, she feels
And there's somewhere that she stores it 'till it's gone away
'Till it's gone away, 'till it's gone away

And it's in his nature, his misbehavior and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toes
It's in his nature, his misbehavior and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toes

It's in his nature, his misbehavior and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toes
It's in his nature, his misbehavior and misdemeanors
The boy ain't no genius, he keeps her on her toes

On her toes
Said the boy ain't no genius but he keeps her on her toes

Two lovers stop for kisses on a wall
She asked him, "Never leave me"
He tells her that he won't

    I think the video to the song is really good in showing what it's all about. Even if it's already self explanitary. and i agree with twirlytori, when that last bit is repeated at the end... gives me butterflies =]

    I can't believe I'm the first to comment on this AMAZING song!! It's a classic story of two young people in a relationship thats going wrong, but it's told in a great way that relates to people.

    I love the first verse but it's when it's repeated at the end when it really gets me.

    i agree with hello.. the video is great and explains it well.

    the boy in the vid is played by danny dyer hes jus a general "geeza" with a cocky atitude and general tendancy to get up to no good and cheat. The girl is tottaly in love with him.

    Just about relationships in general and the way people usualy go about them.

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.

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/

Plastic Bag
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.
