Big boy
Big boy
Big boy

I said give me two pairs
('Cause) I need two pairs
So I can get to stomping in my Air Force Ones
(Big boy) stomping in my Air Force Ones

I like the all white high top strap with the gum bottom (big boy)
There's something about 'em that's dirty, that's why I got 'em (big boy)
I leave 'em strapped and laced and come up out 'em (big boy)
The last person that touched 'em, I been shot 'em (big boy)

Now if you looked, and seen lime green Forces, it's Kiwi (big boy)
You couldn't get this color if you had a personal genie (big boy)
You now I keeps it hip-hop, my niggas flip flop (big boy)
Yeah, my Force Ones in tip-top, now form a flip-flop (big boy) (me?)

I like the limited edition in khaki and army green (big boy)
Patent leather, pinstripe, you should see how I do the strings (big boy)
Size twelve with the strap, red and white with a Cardinal cap (big boy)
All flavors, but it just depend on when and where I am at (don't get me) (big boy)

Don't get me wrong man, now, Murphy Lee ain't dumb man (big boy)
'Cause if the shoe is on the shelf, you should have some man (big boy)
You can not sit up and tell me that you have none man (big boy)
You may not have three or four, but you got one man (big boy)

I said give me two pairs
('Cause) I need two pairs
So I can get to stomping in my Air Force Ones
(Big boy) stomping in my Air Force Ones

I said give me two pairs
('Cause) I need two pairs
So I can get to stomping in my Air Force Ones
(Big boy) stomping in my Air Force Ones (big boy)

We up in Foot Locker I'm looking like I need those (big boy)
Ten and a half and if you got 'em, give me two of those (big boy)
I can tell she never seen Murphy Lee before (Big boy)
'Cause she's just standing there as if I'm shooting free throws (big boy)
I said, "Excuse me miss I only wanna buy shoes" (big boy)
She said, "I love you Murph, especially in the white and blue" (big boy)
I said, "The white in blue sound nice, make it twice" (big boy)
And I signed her autograph, "Thanks for the advice" (big boy) (yo yo)

I keep it real dirty, dirty, you know how I do (big boy)
Purple and gold with the Lakers, the Broncos, the orange in blue (big boy)
I like 'em floppy with ankle socks
Lows, mids, and high tops (big boy) with the clear sole
But this Timbs and fat laces with it is cold (big boy)
But when the winter goes and the hot summer flows (big boy)
Then it's back to the all purpose with 'em and dots in the toe (big boy)
Ain't nothin' stoppin' this dough that I'm spending fo' sure (big boy)
On them Nike Air Force "NE" behind the "O" (big boy)

Okay Lee, I treat my shoe like my ride (big boy)
Chrome on the fat laces at what wood on the inside (big boy)
Spray candy on the swoosh with the electric poofs (big boy)
Since I put a kit on the sole now I got a wider shoe (big boy)
You see that low-mid Skittle purple coupe I'm drivin' in (big boy)
(Kyjuan, where you getting them colors, are you dying them?)
Ten is my size in them, no point in tyin' them
Ain't no point in tryin' these on, they know I'm buying 'em (big boy)

Now don't nothing get the hype on first site like, white on whites (big boy)
Them three quarters, them lows, they all tight (big boy)
The only problem, they only good for one night (big boy)
'Cause once you scuff 'em, you fucked up your whole night (big boy)
What's my basis? The look on store owner's faces (big boy)
This kids outrageous, he buying them by the cases (big boy)
'Cause once I cop 'em, gut 'em and switch the laces (big boy)
They all purpose, ya heard me kinda like my Dayton's (big boy)

I said give me two pairs
('Cause) I need two pairs
So I can get to stomping in my Air Force Ones
(Big boy) stomping in my Air Force Ones

I said give me two pairs
('Cause) I need two pairs
So I can get to stomping in my Air Force Ones
(Big boy) stomping in my Air Force Ones (big boy)

I wore spurs at first now there's tape on them (big boy)
Damn, when those come out so I write the date on 'em (big boy)
These Louis Vuitton ones, you gotta wait on them (big boys)
I had to get 'em early, so I spent more cake on them (big boy)

Look I'm trying to keep it up like a one minute man (big boy)
While Ali on the Kawasaki two head bands (big boy)
Jewelry and all (you whylin') fish bowl in the mall (big boy)
(I got two fifteens) security buying shoes and all (big boy)

Now some time I get 'em free, and some time I gotta pay (big boy)
Walk in the mall and they know what I'm 'bout to say (big boy)
Gimme the black and the platinum, and leather gray (big boy)
Ones in the back and the pair you got on display (check) (big boy)

Now in the boxes where I keep mine (keep mine)
You should peep mine (peep mine) (big boy)
Maybe once or twice, but never three times (big boy)
I'm just a sneaker pro
I love Pumas and shell toes (big boy)
But can't nothing compare to a fresh crispy white pair (big boy)

I said give me two pairs
('Cause) I need two pairs
So I can get to stomping in my Air Force Ones (big boy)
Stomping in my Air Force Ones

I said give me two pairs
('Cause) I need two pairs
So I can get to stomping in my Air Force Ones (big boy)
Stomping in my Air Force Ones

Big boy
Big boy
Big boy
Big boy

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."

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“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. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
