This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Spotcheck Billy got down on his hands and knees
He said "Hey momma, hey let me check your oil all right?"
She said "No, no honey, not tonight
Comeback Monday, comeback Tuesday, then I might."
I said Juanita, my sweet Juanita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
I said Juanita, my sweet chiquita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
Don't want nobody who won't dive for dimes
Don't want no speedballs 'cause I might die tryin'
Throw me a line, throw me a line
'Cause there's a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan
Billy got so sad, dejected, put on his hat and start to run
Runnin' down the street yellin' at the top of his lungs
All I want in this life of mine is some good clean fun
All I want in this life and time is some hit and run
I said Juanita, my sweet Juanita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
I said Juanita, my sweet chiquita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
Put my money in your meter baby so it won't run down
But you caught me in the squeeze play on the cheesy side of town
Throw me a lime, throw me a line
'Cause there's a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan
He said "Hey momma, hey let me check your oil all right?"
She said "No, no honey, not tonight
Comeback Monday, comeback Tuesday, then I might."

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,
No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
I first heard Little Feat when I was maybe 12 years old. I'm almost 40 now . . . and a couple of weeks ago I was singing along to this song and I realized this song is hysterically dirty!!!!!
'Let me check your oil, all right' is a euphemism for sex. As is 'putting money in your meter.'
"Fat man in a bathtub with the blues" is a really creative way to describe a woman's anatomy.
And "I hear you moan"; man, this song, especially with their female singer is just about as sultry as any song I've ever heard.
Questions:
What does dive for dimes mean?--Is that also sex? And a taquita?
no speedballs is refference to certain drugs he doesnt want to deal with.<br /> <br /> <br /> through me a line through me a dime. <br /> <br /> a dime of weed clearly. he just wants a dime lol<br /> <br /> diving for dimes im not quite sure. maybe hes just talking bout chipping in for a dime
im pretty sure dive for dimes means the girl bends over for rear insertion just like "check your oil" is another way of sayin let me use my $%@# like a dipstick on an engine
I have a totally different first impression. This song is about jonesing during heroin detox. I have volunteered in a few rehabs while exploring if I wanted to get into psychiatry in med school (did biochem instead)<br /> <br /> Dime bag also can be a dime of heroin. He would like his girl to get him one. Speedballs are coke taken IV and can be mixed with heroin. But are much riskier. Hence not wanting to do it. Lowell was well known for his love of speedballs died at 34 of likely due to his addiction's toll on his body. guardian.co.uk/culture/2000/aug/30/artsfeatures<br /> <br /> <br /> Addicts on heroin often refer to their drug as a beautiful woman they cannot resist and describe the attraction similarly to being horny, and to being high on heroin similar to orgasm. <br /> <br /> Running down the street... also not uncommon for addicts who are detoxing and hallucinating.<br /> <br /> There is a mix between referring to his drug partner as Juanita and his addiction as Juanita. The clever reference to oil and dipsticks could just as easily be blood and syringes. Heroin was a very popular theme of lyricists in the '70s and needed to be slightly disguised in allusions to avoid censorship on the radio, plus it was 'cool' to be creative in talking about it.<br /> <br /> <br /> The bathtub or toilet is often where H addicts detox when they are broke or cannot get more and involuntarily detox. While detoxing H addicts often hallucinate of sexy women while "horny" for H. Moaning while detoxing is normal.<br /> <br /> <br /> Toward the end Billy seems to be mixing references again, either Juanita wouldn't buy another dime bag because she wanted him to get clean, and was disappointied to find him in a shooting gallery "on the cheesy side of town" or she actually joined him on Tuesday after she did speedballs on her own on Monday.<br /> <br /> Sex drugs and rock and roll. there seem to be more parts I can interpret easily as drugs than as referring to sex. <br />
@dogmanstar well, i remember the expression "muff-diving" was very popular in my teen years, the 1970\'s...muff-diving means performing oral on a girl (diving down into her muff, get it?).....but in this context, its him, the singer, who is male, so the expression still works, \'cuz he wants her to dive (go down on him) for a dime- or dime-bag.....prolly coke, not weed....because then he says to "throw me a line, throw me a line"\r\n
