I saw you with Carini and that naked dude
I could not eat my food.

Lucy had a lovely head.
Lucy took a walk,
now Lucy's dead.

You told me of a secret place.
I saw it when I met you,
the walrus on your face.

Here we stand in shadows...

The thesis that you're writing os a load of shit,
But I'm glad you finally finished it.

He ran across the street and he called his dad-
Now you'll never get the raise you thought you had.

People were all screaming when they saw the lump.
Everyone was screaming when they saw the lump.

Here we stand in shadows...

...Instrumental...

Carini had a lumpy head x16

...Jam...

Carini had a lumpy head x15

    the "naked dude" show was 11-6-98 Madison, Wi with the those referential lyrics inserted for the first time 2 shows later @ UIC 11-8-98.....btw, it's "lucy had a LUMPY head", not LOVELY head.....and although it started as "agillah(sp?) scared the shit out of the ram (i think)" it's been changed over time to "carini scared the shit out of the rail" (as in the RAIL that seperates the stage from the front row)..

    pete carini is one of their sound guys/bodyguard something. so its probably an inside joke about him. the first line "naked dude" part probably has reference to when a naked guy streaked across the stage during a show and carini had to tackle him, i forget the date though. carini is usually the guy who comes out to stop people when they get on stage.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
