Both: We're just two little girls from Littlerock.
We lived on the wrong sid of the tracks
But the gentlemen friends who used to call
they never did seem to mind all
they came to the wrong side of the tracks
Marilyn: then someone broke my heart in Littlerock
So I up and left the pieces there
Like a little lost lamb I roamed about
I came to New York and I found out
Both: that men are the same way everywhere
I was young and determined
To be wined, and dined and ermined
and I worked at it all around the clock
Jane: Now one of these days in my fancy clothes
I'm going back home and punch the nose
Both: of the one who broke my heart
Marilyn: the one who broke my heart!
Both: The one who broke my heart in Littlerock, Littlerock,Littlerock, Littlerock!

Marilyn: I learned an awful lot in Littlerock
and here's some advice I'd like to share
find a gentleman who's shy or bold,
or short or tall, or young or old...
Both: as long as the guys a millionaire!
as a kid from the small street
I did very well on wallstreet
though I never owned a share of stock
and now that I'm known in the biggest banks
I'm going back home and give my thanks
to the one who broke my heart
Marilyn: the one who broke my heart
Both: the one who broke my heart
IN LITTLEROCK!

    I love this song so much. I am a HUGE Marilyn fan, so...I love all these. But this one is so cute, with her and Jane Russell.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
