Sur les murs y'avaient des glycines
Sur les murs y'avaient des glycines
Toi tu portais un tablier bleu
Toi tu portais un tablier

Toujours le nez dans tes bassines
Toujours le nez dans tes bassines
En ce temps-là on se parlait peu
En ce temps-là on se taisait
C'est pas de l'amour pauvre Martha
C'est pas de l'amour mais ça viendra

Paraît que cousin et cousine
Paraît que cousin et cousine
Ca ne doit pas s'aimer d'amour non
Ca ne doit pas parler d'amour

Alors on parlait du beau temps,
De la pluie et des fleurs des champs
De la vendange et du labour mais
On ne parlait jamais d'amour
C'est pas de l'amour pauvre Martha
C'est pas de l'amour mais ça viendra

Puis je suis parti en usine
Puis je suis parti en usine
Je ne voulais pas être fermier moi
Je voudrais être le premier

Merci beaucoup petit Jesus
J'ai bien manger et j'ai bien bu
Je suis aimé ou respecté moi
On me dit "vous" pour me parler

C'est pas de l'amour pauvre Martha
C'est pas de l'amour mais ça viendra

Pourtant quand je vois des glycines
Pourtant quand je vois des glycines
J'ai envie de les arracher moi
J'ai envie de les arracher

Paraît que t'aurais eu deux filles
Qui font partie de ma famille
Mais comme l'amour ne me dis plus rien
Elles n'auront jamais de cousins

C'est pas de l'amour pauvre Martha
C'est pas de la haine mais ça viendra

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

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.
