I'm gonna tell you 'bout the car that I just bought
It's that Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot
Well, I'm gonna tell you 'bout the car that I now own
Well it doesn't go nowhere, it just stays all alone
You know, I like it
You know, I like it a whole lot

Well, that's my Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, there in the parking lot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
You know, I like it
You know, I like to watch it rot

(I don't know why)

I'm gonna tell you 'bout a car you'd best not buy
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
The brakes'll fall off and you will sigh
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
I'm gonna tell you 'bout a car that you won't like
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
You had best stay home, sir, better take your bike
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
I like it
I like it a lot

Because it's my Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it's there in the parking lot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it's there in the parking lot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
You know, I like it, though, yes, I like it a lot

Tell 'em

Well, I'll meet you at seven in the parking lot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
We can all just stand by my car, you know, and watch it rot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
Well, I'll see you now at seven, sir, don't be late
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
We'll stand there and watch my car vegetate
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
You know, I like it
You know, I like it a lot

(Let's do another verse)

Well, go ahead and buy it, don't listen to me, go ahead and do it
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
You'll have it home five minutes and you'll know you blew it
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
See, the brakes are made of glass and tires are made of vinyl
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
You'll want to take it back find out that all sales are final
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
You know, I like it, though
I like this car a lot

My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it's there in the parking lot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
It's my Dodge Veg-O-Matic, there in the parking lot
(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)
Well, you know, I like it
I like it a lot

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/

Magical
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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
