The song "Call Me In The Afternoon" by Half Moon Run seems to be about someone offering something to another person, but with conditions. The first line suggests that the person can have "it" if they don't mind some or all of the others staying with the speaker. It's unclear what "it" is, but it could be something like a relationship or a job. The next line talks about the confusion caused by the person's riddles and sudden generosity. This could suggest that the person is being mysterious or manipulative - offering something that seems too good to be true. The chorus repeats the title phrase, "Call me in the afternoon," and suggests that the person should call the speaker even if it's just one person at a time. This could imply that the speaker wants to keep their conversations private, or that they're only willing to deal with the other person one-on-one. The next verse suggests that the person can have "it" when they come by - again, with the vague suggestion of conditions. The line about seeing the person when "it" caught their eye could mean that they both want the same thing, whatever "it" is. The line "it's such a petty price to pay" suggests that there might be some kind of sacrifice involved in getting "it." The pre-chorus repeats the idea of taking something if you need it, but warning against being out too late or getting too messed up. The repeated phrase "Really really really really... wanna make you feel home" suggests a desire to help the other person, but it's unclear what that help might be. The final verse talks about sliding another shot and finding company, which could imply that the person is using alcohol or drugs to cope with some kind of loneliness or pain. The repeated warning against being out too late or getting too messed up suggests that there are consequences to this behavior. Overall, the song seems to be about a cryptic offer from one person to another, with both parties potentially hiding something. The repeated phrase "Call me in the afternoon" adds to the sense of secrecy. The chorus and pre-chorus suggest that there are conditions and warnings attached to whatever is being offered, and that there might be a cost involved in accepting it.
