Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Get ready to have some fun
Alright here we go
Five, four three, two, and one
Are you ready to work out?
Don't take it the wrong way
I can never keep up
Sick of liking your selfies
Should've gone with my gut
Maybe I'm in a movie
Maybe I'm out to lunch
But I'm constantly swiping it, tapping
It's not that relaxing
I need a new routine
(He's trying)
(She works out too much)
The only reason we never worked out was
He didn't work out
(He's trying)
(She works out too much)
The only reason we never worked out was
He didn't work out enough
(He's trying)
Let's move on to the next step
Step, touch, step, touch
Come on
Get on your hands and knees
Ready? Here we go
Welcome to the shitshow
Grab a comfortable seat
Find me in the front row
Listening to music
Anyone can see
(He's trying)
(She works out too much)
(She works out too much and)
The only reason we never worked out was
He didn't work out
(He's trying)
(She works out too much)
(She works out too much and)
The only reason we never worked out was
He didn't work out enough
Remember to drink a glass of water before and after your workout (he's trying)
Form and shake
Stick with it
Here we go!
I'm going off the deep end
Time to let myself go
Nothing's ever as easy as when
It never begins
The end is just a dream
(He's trying)
(She works out too much)
(She works out too much and)
The only reason we never worked out was
He didn't work out
(He's trying)
(She works out too much)

The only reason we never worked out was
He didn't work out enough

The only reason we never worked out was

The only reason we never worked out was
He didn't work out enough
(He's trying)
(She works out too much)
The only reason we never worked out was
We didn't work out, it never works out
No, it never works out
She works out too much
No, I never work out (she works out too much)
It didn't work out
No, it never works out
Okay, we're done
Alright here we go
Five, four three, two, and one
Are you ready to work out?

It didn't work out
No, it never works out
Okay, we're done

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
