It's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot
It's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot, like life

There's a new game we like to play you see
A game with added reality
You treat me like a dog
Get me down on my knees

We call it master and servant
We call it master and servant

It's a lot like life
This play between the sheets
With you on top and me underneath
Forget all about equality

Let's play master and servant
Let's play master and servant

It's a lot like life (it's a lot like life)
And that's what's appealing
If you despise (it's a lot like life)
That throwaway feeling
From disposable fun
Then this is the one

Domination's the name of the game in bed or in life
They're both just the same
Except in one you're fulfilled at the end of the day

Let's play master and servant
Let's play master and servant

Master and servant
It's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot
It's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot, like life
It's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot
It's a lot, it's a lot, master and servant
It's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot
It's a lot, it's a lot, it's a lot, like life

It's a lot like life (it's a lot like life)
And that's what's appealing
If you despise (it's a lot like life)
That throwaway feeling
From disposable fun
Then this is the one

Let's play master and servant (it's a lot)
Come on, master and servant (it's a lot)
Let's play master and servant (it's a lot)
Come on, master and servant (it's a lot) (it's a lot)
Let's play master and servant (it's a lot) (it's a lot)
Come on, master and servant

Gentle Hour
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,

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.

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.
