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.
Never too busy, I'm never too busy for you babe, never too busy
I've got things on my mind
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
If you're feeling alone
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
Girl when we first started we were spending all our time together in love
Now we're growning on and you're afraid of losing me, don't be
I've got a heart full of love even though I might not show it
Girl it's you I dream of and just so you know it
You have my attention, anything you need at all
I'll be there when you call me
(Chorus 1)
I've got things on my mind, takin' my time, but I'm...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
If you're feeling alone, just pick up the phone, 'cause I...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
We used to dream that one day we'd have everything we want
But now that things are movin', I hope that we don't move apart
You still have my heart
I've got so much to do, but girl it doesn't matter
But when it comes down to you I can't think of nothing better
Every time I'm stressin', I find that it's a blessin' to
To be hearin' from you
(Chorus 2)
I've got things on my mind, takin' my time, but I'm...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
If you're feeling alone, pick up the phone and call me, 'cause I...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
Whenever you need me
(Chorus/Vamp out)
I've got things on my mind
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
If you're feeling alone
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
Girl when we first started we were spending all our time together in love
Now we're growning on and you're afraid of losing me, don't be
I've got a heart full of love even though I might not show it
Girl it's you I dream of and just so you know it
You have my attention, anything you need at all
I'll be there when you call me
(Chorus 1)
I've got things on my mind, takin' my time, but I'm...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
If you're feeling alone, just pick up the phone, 'cause I...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
We used to dream that one day we'd have everything we want
But now that things are movin', I hope that we don't move apart
You still have my heart
I've got so much to do, but girl it doesn't matter
But when it comes down to you I can't think of nothing better
Every time I'm stressin', I find that it's a blessin' to
To be hearin' from you
(Chorus 2)
I've got things on my mind, takin' my time, but I'm...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
If you're feeling alone, pick up the phone and call me, 'cause I...
I'm not too busy for you, I'm not too busy
Whenever you need me
(Chorus/Vamp out)

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”

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'

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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
