(Hey man) Oh leave me alone, you know
(Hey man) Oh Henry, get off the phone
I gotta (Hey man) I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed chick just put
My spine out of place
(Hey man) My schoolday's insane

(Hey man) Well, she's a total blam-blam
She said she had to squeeze it but
She - and then she -
Oh don't lean on me, man
'cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back from Suffragette City
Oh don't lean on me, man
'cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City is outta sight
She's alright
(Hey man) ah Henry, don't be unkind, go away
(Hey man) I can't take you this time, no way
(Hey man) Droogie, don't crash here
There's only room for one and here she comes
Here she comes

Little Feat
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”
