I'd like to jettison your medicine
Back to where you came from
You keep your bell and edison
Away from my grandson
Stand son on your own bone
Don't forget the home that you come from
Don't let them say your name wrong

Just like larry I'll take it to the hoop
Make one false move in one fell swoop
And then I pass it to the trigger man
Bow down to the sound if you still can

131-XHD
I got my beautiful dutiful cargo 250
(x2)

Plenty of misshalls and plenty of cat calls
And I can attest to the rest of the best stalls
But never have I ever made a match with sickness
Look both ways and dispatch with a quickness

Gimme some roy and gimme some speed
Gather all around to the world and read on
Til you get to the part that's righteous
It's an unbearable likeness

131-XHD
I got my beautiful dutiful cargo 250
(x2)

    I love "You Cut it, You Match It" but this one just has this sort of stupid produced funk that makes you wanna just get up n'groove. Hot shit.

    Just like Larry I'll take it to the hoop I make one false move in one fell swoop

    Obviously thats about Larry Bird

    And then I pass it to the trigger man Bow down to the sound if you still can

    That would be Larry Bird passing to (the trigger man) Kevin McHale

    If I had a guess this song is just about life in Boston

    --Well, the "Larry" that they mention, may be Larry Perry, one of the many physically/mentally handicapped people that Chad, and the other dispatch guys often work with. Plus they showed him in the "How's Your News?" trailer on the "Under The Radar" DVD. Also, during one of the songs on the "UTR" DVD, (I think it was the jam-session in 'Bats') Chad picked up Larry from the audience and danced around stage with him, Larry was obviously having a hell of a time! -- Also, (as i saw on Dispatch's Myspace profile!) "131-XHD" is the liscense plate number for their van, Wimpy! [Hence the 'cargo' that they got for it] --They also must've put "in one fell swoop" in there in homage of their original band name "One Fell Swoop" Yeaaahhhh...

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/

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America.
