Welcome to the Mo-Mo
(all right, all right, all right, all right, all right!)
You come and take a ride wit me! Hey, hey!
And that's the way we roll bro!
That's the way we...
Th-That's the way we...
Th-That's the way we..
Hey, that's the way we roll bro!
Welcome to the Mo-Mo
[Verse One]
Whatever you need, best believe
It's starting with Alley
Whether you fiendin' for some greens
Or you starving for patties
And if you (Roll!) well let me tell you what that five gon' get you
As far as (Smoke!) oh my dogg, he gon' fire up wit' you
And if you drink, I'm gonna buy some liqour
I'll make that moonshine shit that'll dry up your liver
I spent the whole day, I'm seein' now how I can get ya
Ya still standin' well, damn I still fire up switches
That's how I do it in the (Mo-Mo Baby!) Oh I rarely change
So you know Alley Life gonna keep that Mary Jane man
[chorus]
Five'll get you (Tripped up!)
Ten'll get you (Fixed up!)
Twenty'll get you (Lit up!)
Hey, that's the way we roll, bro!
Thirty'll get you (Touched up!)
Forty'll get you (Sucked up!)
Fifty'll get you (Stuck up!)
Uh oh, welcome to the Mo-Mo
Come and take a ride wit me (Let's Go!)
You not expectin to be live as me, but try something 'cause
Five'll get you (Tripped up!)
Ten'll get you (Fixed up!)
Twenty'll get you (Lit up!)
Hey, that's the way we roll, bro!
[Verse Two]
I want you to take it all off
Nothing dropped in your drink
I want you to do that (yeah girl), go to that
It's not what you think
But when it comes to gettin' nasty
Oh yeah, I'm paying for that
No disrespect I keep it business, I ain't straying from that
But let me tell you, I don't play with that
So when I meet a broad
I'm comin' out the gate with that (Yo, yo, how much?)
If you straight with that
Well dig this here, I'm gonna page you back
Come to your spot and probably blaze a bag
But if I paid you can save the naggin'
Unless you screamin' "Alley Life"
while you praise the thrashin' (right, right)
[chorus]
[Verse Three]
Everybody and they mamma tryin' to up and stop this
I done told ya'll before, man, I ain't got shit
Ain't no bling bling floatin' round in my watches
Since the casinos came, Narc-o's been on my block
I can't mess with no lick if I can't profit
Or have sex with some chick if she ain't topless
I'm a freak, baby, gotta see them things hoppin'
Show me your face girl, let me know the pain's throbbin'
If I paid though, man, get the same options
You can either get game or get bouncin' (bye!)
[chorus]
That's the way we (hey!)
That's the way we (hey!)
That's the way we (hey!)
That's the way we roll bro!
That's the way we (hey!)
That's the way we (hey!)
That's the way we (hey!)
That's the way we roll bro!
(all right, all right, all right, all right, all right!)
You come and take a ride wit me! Hey, hey!
And that's the way we roll bro!
That's the way we...
Th-That's the way we...
Th-That's the way we..
Hey, that's the way we roll bro!

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Gentle Hour

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,

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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
