Lyrics
Go home, I'd like to
Desire to return home
Stumble to bed and lay beside you
Expressing a wish to stumble to bed and be with someone (presumably a partner)
Until we're even or romantically bored,
Describing the desire to be with someone until a balance or a state of romantic boredom is reached, whichever occurs first
Whichever comes first
Highlighting the uncertainty of the duration of the romantic encounter
Go home, I'm trying
Reiterating the desire to go home, indicating effort
But I've been misled by dirty cartoons
Admitting to being influenced or misled by explicit content, possibly in the form of dirty cartoons
You'll keep me honest for old time's sake
Expectation for someone to keep the speaker honest for the sake of old times
I'm begging of you, go home, go home
An urgent plea for someone to go home
(I'd like to) go home
Reiteration of the desire to go home
I've mined the graveyard of unpublished poems
Having explored extensively but found no valuable material, possibly in creative pursuits like writing poems
You should be so lucky
Suggesting that finding something valuable or lucky in the graveyard of unpublished poems is unlikely
Considers the meaning and shrug it right off
Considering the meaning of something and dismissing it with a shrug
You'll only encourage me
Expecting encouragement despite the dismissive attitude
(I'd like to) go home
Reiteration of the desire to go home
I like to go home
Expressing a general liking or preference for going home
