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.
I don't understand it 'cause you won't say yes
But you don't say no
Sayin' no shouldn't you keep holdin' out
But you don't let go
I'm givin' up on trying
To sell you things that you ain't buying
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
You're giving me the business with that old come on
But you don't come across
You get me so excited don't you know you're such a tease
When I think you're gettin' hot, you're not
So what's the problem, what's wrong
This kiss and miss you know it can't go on
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
I'm givin' up on trying now it's
Girl, if you ain't buyin' now it's
I gave it all I got now it's
I thought you were hot but you're not so it's
Your move, your move your move
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
But you don't say no
Sayin' no shouldn't you keep holdin' out
But you don't let go
I'm givin' up on trying
To sell you things that you ain't buying
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
You're giving me the business with that old come on
But you don't come across
You get me so excited don't you know you're such a tease
When I think you're gettin' hot, you're not
So what's the problem, what's wrong
This kiss and miss you know it can't go on
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
I'm givin' up on trying now it's
Girl, if you ain't buyin' now it's
I gave it all I got now it's
I thought you were hot but you're not so it's
Your move, your move your move
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move
It's your move
I played all of mine
Time is running out
Make your move
Or we can't go on
Till you understand
It's all in your hands
It's your move

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
