well, this song to me is something i can really relate to. being the middle man, it's like being stuck between two friends where they don’t particularly like each other anymore but you're still friends with both of them. it's something where you don’t really mind being where you are but sometimes it's like there's something or someone playing tricks with you and you get confused and frustrated because you don't know whether the next day you're still going to be friends with both of them or if they're going to be friends and then turn their backs on you. so 'give a friend a call instead of making him confused', to me, is like just stop thinking about yourselves but think about the person who is being the middle man.
and ‘of this and that and man he should try less because every time he's rejected man he loses affection’ is like he shouldn’t always be the middle man, shouldn’t always help people because then they’ll take advantage of him and he’ll be the one who will end up hurt, even though his intention was so that no one would get hurt.
Well I know some people's they got a little less than nothing
But still find some to spare
And other people got more than they could use
But they don't share
And some people got problems man
They got awful complications
Other people got perfect situations
With no provocation
for ^that^ part of the song, it’s like other people didn’t bother with the problem the friends were having even though they could help, but the guy, the middle man did. and he’s a middle man even though he has problems of his own to deal with in the first place. so his two friends are too blind to see that… and they are the ones who should be helping him (by giving him a call!) instead of the other way around.
Somehow we always get stuck in the middle
Confused, what an awful thing for you to do
Confused, what an awful thing for you to say
well, yea, it’s an awful and terrible thing to be the middle man, but sometimes you just don’t plan these things. the middle man is usually at the right place at the right time.
