Force field super shield AA
Junior high love affair is okay
Jump on the big wagon 'cause I'm so cal
I'm big in every way
I'm running as fast as I can

She goes above and beyond her call of duty
She is a slut but X makes it sexy
Sex reminds her of eating spaghetti
I am wasted but I'm ready

If you wanna move it so, why don't you make it go?
Prove to everybody who doesn't understand
All the nights, all the fights you are out of sight
Some say more with their hands
I'm running as fast as I can

She goes above and beyond her call of duty
She is a slut but X makes it sexy
Sex reminds her of eating spaghetti
I am wasted but I'm ready
I am wasted but I'm ready
I am wasted but I'm ready

I'm running as fast as I can
I'm running as fast as I rock

Why am I dealing with this feeling?
I'm maxed out like a credit card
I'll continue to be my worst enemy
It's easy but it seems so hard
You're near but you seem so far

She goes above and beyond her call of duty
She is a slut but X makes it sexy
Sex reminds her of eating spaghetti
I am wasted but I'm ready

She goes above and beyond her call of duty
She is a slut but X makes it sexy
Sex reminds her of eating spaghetti
I am wasted but I'm ready
I am wasted but I'm ready
I am wasted but I'm ready
I am wasted but I'm ready

I'm running as fast as I can
I'm running as fast as I can, can
I'm running as fast as I can
I'm running as fast as I can

    ROCK N’ ROLL - I am an old fart from the 80s, and when I heard this in the early-2000s I thought , “cool, Rock N Roll is still going strong, man, it’s NOT all freakin Dashboard Comfessional…thank you Lord”

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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,

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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
