Can you hear me?
Hope you can
Listen here closely
You'll understand

Make way for the killer race
They use the Bible
Millimeter by millimeter
Millimeter by millimeter

Six times hot as the sun
Didn't mean to hurt anyone
Didn't mean to hurt anyone
Sorry, sorry, yeah

Don't try to force them
To help them
Do what they do
What they do

So the hurting's not on you
Chasing for miles
Until you're standing before
The Human Being Lawnmower

Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop

    In a 2011 interview on youtube, MC5 guitarist, Wayne Kramer explained that the lyrics to Human Being Lawnmower were written by lead singer Rob Tyner. Tyner's lyrics were meant to illustrate exactly what the draft during the Vietnam War was all about. Listen to the song again and think about the time in which it was written. 1970 was a great year for music, but not much else in America.

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/

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
