What would you have me do? Give out? Give up? Give in?

= What do you want/expect me to do? Collapse? Stop trying? Surrender?

When a man is wrapped up in himself he makes a pretty small package.

= When someone (yes, it's usually a man!) is obsessed about himself, his own feelings, his own dignity and
so on, he is a rather pathetic person.

There is a pun here on to wrap up (= envelop a present in wrapping paper) and be wrapped up in oneself (=
be self-obsessed)

Tune in, turn on, drop out.

- this was a slogan of the hippy drugs culture of the 1960s. Timothy Leary who coined
the phrase in 1966 explains:
"Turn on" meant go within to activate your neural and genetic equipment.
Become sensitive to the many and various levels of consciousness and the
specific triggers that engage them. Drugs were one way to accomplish this
end. "Tune in" meant interact harmoniously with the world around you—
externalize, materialize, express your new internal perspectives. "Drop out"
suggested an active, selective, graceful process of detachment from
involuntary or unconscious commitments. "Drop Out" meant self-reliance, a
discovery of one's singularity, a commitment to mobility, choice, and change.
Unhappily my explanations of this sequence of personal development were
often misinterpreted to mean "Get stoned and abandon all constructive
activity".

The last example, as a phrase, is an abiding part of US counter-culture, the

meaning of Leary's three phrasal verbs, however, is not very important. In a
more general copntext, "tune in" means synchronize a radio to a specific
channel or station (which we no longer do). "Turn on" is a standard way of
saying "activate" or "switch on". "Drop out" nowadays means to stop
participating, stop trying - for instance, if you drop out of a course you've
started because you haven't got time to study properly.
