@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Red light
Demo take one
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it, mhm
Make your mind up fast
If you want it
Anytime I can give it
But you better hurry
'Cause it may not last
Did I hear you say
That there must be a catch?
Will you walk away
From a fool and his money?
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it
But you better hurry
'Cause it's going fast
If you want it, here it is
Come and get it, mhm
Make your mind up fast
If you want it
Anytime I can give it
But you'd better hurry
'Cause it may not last
Did I hear you say
That there must be a catch?
Will you walk away
From a fool and his money?

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,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Probably one of my favorite McCartney songs. Many of his songs seem fragmented and weird. This one always puts a smile on my face though. I wish he would have released it on his own, I think he could have done more with it than Badfinger did.
