@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Did you come here to kill, or did you come here to die,
Or did you really think that spaceships would descend from the sky!
Bending light and beaming forth across space-time,
To see us scared in the reflection of their oily black eyes
To a stalk us like a predator
Like our movies imply
They're not the one's who've come to kill us
Come to fill us full of lead
They're not the one who hate us
And they are not the ones who mutilate our animals.
Or travel to the stars, they're not the one's who cause us harm!
(We are)
We are, we are, we are
We are still-life, and cold-blooded
(We feel nothing!)
We are still-life, and cold-blooded
(We feel nothing!)
Hellbent on heaven
Hellbent on heaven
Hellbent on heaven
Hellbent on heaven
While our righteous men are stuffing corpses full of shit and pain
We are, we are, we are still-life
We are, we are, we are still-life
We are, we are, we are still-life
They're not the ones who cause us harm
We are, we are
Did you come here to kill, did you come here to die'
We are still-life in cold-blood
We are still-life in cold-blood
And we feel, we feel
Nothing!
Stuffing corpses full of shit and pain
They bloviate about a future beyond the moon,
To bring about another planet's doom.
To discover peaceful life, and beat a war-drum to its tune
Unless my prayers are answered
Our end is coming soon!
Or did you really think that spaceships would descend from the sky!
Bending light and beaming forth across space-time,
To see us scared in the reflection of their oily black eyes
To a stalk us like a predator
Like our movies imply
They're not the one's who've come to kill us
Come to fill us full of lead
They're not the one who hate us
And they are not the ones who mutilate our animals.
Or travel to the stars, they're not the one's who cause us harm!
(We are)
We are, we are, we are
We are still-life, and cold-blooded
(We feel nothing!)
We are still-life, and cold-blooded
(We feel nothing!)
Hellbent on heaven
Hellbent on heaven
Hellbent on heaven
Hellbent on heaven
While our righteous men are stuffing corpses full of shit and pain
We are, we are, we are still-life
We are, we are, we are still-life
We are, we are, we are still-life
They're not the ones who cause us harm
We are, we are
Did you come here to kill, did you come here to die'
We are still-life in cold-blood
We are still-life in cold-blood
And we feel, we feel
Nothing!
Stuffing corpses full of shit and pain
They bloviate about a future beyond the moon,
To bring about another planet's doom.
To discover peaceful life, and beat a war-drum to its tune
Unless my prayers are answered
Our end is coming soon!

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,
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/
