Roses are red and
Violets are blue
Honey is sweet,
But not as sweet as you
Roses are red and
Violets are blue.

Ad id aid id mud
Ad id aid id mud

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

Come pick my Roses!

Sweet from the flowers
Honey from the bees
I've got a feeling,
I'm ready to release

Roses are red and
Violets are blue
Honey is sweet,
But not as sweet as you.

It's invisible but, so touchable
And I can feel it on my body,
So emotional.
I'm on a ride, on a ride

I'm a passenger.
I'm a victim of a hot love messenger.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

And roses are red.
Come with me baby,
Please fulfill my wish
Show it to me truly,

Show me with a kiss.
Roses are red and
Violets are blue
Honey is sweet,

But not as sweet as you.
It's invisible but, so touchable
And I can feel it on my body,
So emotional.

I'm on a ride, on a ride
I'm a passenger.
I'm a victim of a hot love messenger.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
And roses are red.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Ad id aid id mud
Ad id aid id mud
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

Don't take my roses away!
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
And roses are red.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing you said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
My roses are red.

Oooh oooh oooh, yeah!
Ad id aid id mud
Ad id aid id mud

    This seems like its about an orgasm. I've been reading all Aqua's lyrics and I am suprised that they are all actually about stuff. I always thought they were about nothing. But then again, I never really listened to Aqua.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Album art
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
