This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You know he read a couple books
And now he shoots me dirty looks
As if he thinks he's better than me
A condescending attitude
Well I hate to tell you dude
Can't even buy a vowel on your SAT's
Some cruel prick told him he's on the ball
Don't hold your breath waiting for Mensa to call
He's an idiot savant, a first class moron
He's an idiot savant, a jackass indeed
He's an idiot savant, one minute pushing a mop
The next studying Geometry
He really made his parents proud
A regular Magna Cum Laud
Valedictorian of the urinal set
Is he a genius? Listen, bud
The man splits atoms with his butt
Don't need his fingers to count to ten
He's a Renaissance man of the world he's doing well
He's close to learning how to tie his shoelaces without help
He's an idiot savant, he's a cloth-eared flop
He's an idiot savant, an imbecile indeed
He's an idiot savant, an Ivy League retard
Who drooled his way to a PhD
He's way too smart to be fooled
By the likes of me or you
He knows what's going on in the world
He thinks that Chili con carne
Is a Mexican farmer
And RuPaul is just a real tall girl
He'll show you who's really the better man
As he asks you if you'd like some fries with that
He's an idiot savant in a 30 point font
He's an idiot savant, a walking dictionary
He's an idiot savant, ask him what he wants
Just to go down on history
[Repeat first chorus]
And now he shoots me dirty looks
As if he thinks he's better than me
A condescending attitude
Well I hate to tell you dude
Can't even buy a vowel on your SAT's
Some cruel prick told him he's on the ball
Don't hold your breath waiting for Mensa to call
He's an idiot savant, a first class moron
He's an idiot savant, a jackass indeed
He's an idiot savant, one minute pushing a mop
The next studying Geometry
He really made his parents proud
A regular Magna Cum Laud
Valedictorian of the urinal set
Is he a genius? Listen, bud
The man splits atoms with his butt
Don't need his fingers to count to ten
He's a Renaissance man of the world he's doing well
He's close to learning how to tie his shoelaces without help
He's an idiot savant, he's a cloth-eared flop
He's an idiot savant, an imbecile indeed
He's an idiot savant, an Ivy League retard
Who drooled his way to a PhD
He's way too smart to be fooled
By the likes of me or you
He knows what's going on in the world
He thinks that Chili con carne
Is a Mexican farmer
And RuPaul is just a real tall girl
He'll show you who's really the better man
As he asks you if you'd like some fries with that
He's an idiot savant in a 30 point font
He's an idiot savant, a walking dictionary
He's an idiot savant, ask him what he wants
Just to go down on history
[Repeat first chorus]

Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Blue

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there.

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.
