You've got to come into my kitchen for a crime
You've got to shoot me up and tie me to the kite
I'm gonna tell you what to do about yourself
Because the breakfast of the champions is a hedonistic health
Made of paper and glue
You're a Rubik's cube
You can buy it in cans, tin cans
You were always the first
But I think you've got your hands reversed
Hands reversed
Hands reversed
And cool for sure
Watching your weekends and your holidays combine
Trying to color in between the dotted lines
Your only souvenir's a suitcase full of sand
But when you feel like you're a million then I feel like I'm a grand
Made of paper and glue
You're a Rubik's cube
You can buy it in cans (tin cans)
You were always the first
But I think you've got your hands reversed
Hands reversed
Hands reversed
And cool for sure
Made of paper and glue
You're a Rubik's cube
You can buy it in cans (tin cans)
You were always the first
But I think you've got your hands reversed
Hands reversed
Hands reversed
And cool for sure
You've got to shoot me up and tie me to the kite
I'm gonna tell you what to do about yourself
Because the breakfast of the champions is a hedonistic health
Made of paper and glue
You're a Rubik's cube
You can buy it in cans, tin cans
You were always the first
But I think you've got your hands reversed
Hands reversed
Hands reversed
And cool for sure
Watching your weekends and your holidays combine
Trying to color in between the dotted lines
Your only souvenir's a suitcase full of sand
But when you feel like you're a million then I feel like I'm a grand
Made of paper and glue
You're a Rubik's cube
You can buy it in cans (tin cans)
You were always the first
But I think you've got your hands reversed
Hands reversed
Hands reversed
And cool for sure
Made of paper and glue
You're a Rubik's cube
You can buy it in cans (tin cans)
You were always the first
But I think you've got your hands reversed
Hands reversed
Hands reversed
And cool for sure

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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
In the song meanings commentary for Bambi, there's the interpretation that the "kite" in that song refers to the singer's mother's battle with alcoholism... the colorful kite (alcohol) is the only bright thing in a black and white world. The theme seems to continue in this song.
"You've got to come into the kitchen for a crime"-- alcohol is usually kept in the fridge or cabinet "You've got to shoot me up and tie me to the kite"-- the mother is holding the singer hostage emotionally with her alcoholism
"The breakfast of champions is a hedonistic hell"-- The mom starts drinking first thing in the morning and apparently doesn't care about anything but her own pleasure
"You can buy it in cans, tin cans"-- you can buy beer in cans
"I think you've got your hands reversed"-- the singer thinks the mom's logic for defending her choices is completely backwards
"Watching your weekends and holidays combine, etc"-- this set of lyrics talks about the effects of alcohol on one's memory and the poor decisions the mother makes like forgetting to buy actual souvenirs when she went to the beach.
"But when you feel like a million, I feel like a grand"-- when the mother feels great (i.e. drunk), the singer feels crappy.
