This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
(You left me with a broken heart,
Now I see we were shooting from the start,
You you left me with nothing but a kiss,
And now I'm leaving you with these lips, with these lips, oh)
Every single time from here
Every single moment from here
But now you are gone
And I'm still here (yeah, check it out)
So check it out (so check it out)
I wrote to tell (I wrote to tell)
In case you ever left yourself
And baby you can't find me (no way)
'Cause I quit (right now)
Oh you left me with a broken heart
And now I see we were shooting from the start
Well you left me with nothing but a kiss
And now I'm leaving you with these lips
(Listen up)
So now I'm pressin'
But I ain't stressing
She's got a man (she's got a man)
I'm with her best friend
I tried it love
But it never really stuck
She said it's love
But it didn't give a fuck
You left me with a broken heart
But now I see we were shooting from the start
You left me with nothing but a kiss
And now I'm leaving you with these lips
And now I'm better 'cause you left me
I just left 'cause you let me
Don't you go and just forget me
Don't you go and just forget
Oh you left me with a broken heart
And you I see were shooting from the start
You left me with nothing but a kiss
And now I'm leaving you with these lips
You left me, you left me, you left me, baby [Repeat x2]
Now I see we were shooting from the start,
You you left me with nothing but a kiss,
And now I'm leaving you with these lips, with these lips, oh)
Every single time from here
Every single moment from here
But now you are gone
And I'm still here (yeah, check it out)
So check it out (so check it out)
I wrote to tell (I wrote to tell)
In case you ever left yourself
And baby you can't find me (no way)
'Cause I quit (right now)
Oh you left me with a broken heart
And now I see we were shooting from the start
Well you left me with nothing but a kiss
And now I'm leaving you with these lips
(Listen up)
So now I'm pressin'
But I ain't stressing
She's got a man (she's got a man)
I'm with her best friend
I tried it love
But it never really stuck
She said it's love
But it didn't give a fuck
You left me with a broken heart
But now I see we were shooting from the start
You left me with nothing but a kiss
And now I'm leaving you with these lips
And now I'm better 'cause you left me
I just left 'cause you let me
Don't you go and just forget me
Don't you go and just forget
Oh you left me with a broken heart
And you I see were shooting from the start
You left me with nothing but a kiss
And now I'm leaving you with these lips
You left me, you left me, you left me, baby [Repeat x2]

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,
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
