This was the first song on the album, after Mrs Robinson, that I really got in to. Its more or less about a guy finally starting to "notice" a girl she's known for a while as a romantic partner. Very cute!

The lines

It's so mesmerizing, Can't describe it, All that inside, hey.

seem to me to be a misquoting of the lyrics to Rocks Off by the Stones:

Feel so hypnotized, can't describe the scene It's so mesmerized, all that inside me

the way i take it its like he has known a girl for a really long time and she's starting to come up in the looks department. its like when you have a friend and they all of a sudden change and they become really interesting to you. from what it sounds like she was a sort of plain boring girl and he looks over and shes becoming really cool and punk and whatnot

This song is about Alison from Smudge. Evan and his friends had taken an ecstacy pill. They were all peaking except for Alison. Half an hour later Alison's pill started coming on.

This song is about Alison from Smudge. They were sitting around taking e, and everyone came on except Alison. 20 minutes later Alison started to happen. Apparently the first question she gets asked is whether she has her tit pierced.

Does she?
