Beat the bloody hell out of it Ben look at what it took from you
Your pride shattered and all you do is deny
Shoulda chilled 'cause now you're living alone in a place meant for two
With a pocket full of stones and it drags you down to the bottom of it
You pig-headed motherfucker should have saw it coming
'Cause now you're ripping all the pictures off the fridge
Biting your bottom lip so you don't call her a bitch
And it's crazy, where'd you learn to fight like an animal
Every time you have a slight misunderstandable issue it kills you to let shit go
So you treat it like it's trying to take at you pick out your bones
When it finds you, dragging all the bullshit behind you
Fight for the hell of it and fuck for the silent truth
This is everything that's ripping you apart
But you act like it's just a little scar

I never back down, never threw no fight
Never stopped when the bell ding to prove you're right
Never listened when you told me it would boost my life
But I'm gonna give it just one more to back down
Never threw no towel, never hesitate to respark I'm breathing this out
Never thought that it would ever actually tackle me out
But I'm gonna give it just one more round

Beat the daylights out of it Ben
Then look at what it put you through
Rehide what you used to do
You shoulda chilled 'cause now you're living in a box with a ghost for a friend and a gun full of thoughts
And it beats you down with the water running
You blind-swinging motherfucker shoulda thought of something
'Cause now you're dancing in the middle of the ring with your fists tossed up yelling "I don't feel a thing" and it's crazy
You don't want to live like this
If it wasn't for your friends you'd get killed by this
Full of passion it actually slows you down
When you don't read between the lines of those old
When it's time to packing all the bullshit behind you
Fight for the hell of it or fuck for the silent truth
This is everything that's ripping you apart
But you act like it's just a little scar

I never back down, never threw no fight
Never stopped when the bell ding to prove you're right
Never listened when you told me it would boost my life
But I'm gonna give it just one more to back down
Never threw no towel, never hesitate to respark I'm breathing this out
Never thought that it would ever actually tackle me out
But I'm gonna give it just one more round
I never back down
I never back down

I never back down, never threw no fight
Never stopped when the bell ding to prove you're right
Never listened when you told me it would boost my life
But I'm gonna give it just one more to back down
Never threw no towel, never hesitate to respark I'm breathing this out
Never thought that it would ever actually tackle me out
But I'm gonna give it just one more

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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
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/
