J'ai bu dans toutes les tasses
J'ai goûté à tous les verres
J'ai perdu cent fois la face
Mais sans rien gagner derrière

J'voudrais bien trouver ma place
Naufragé cherche une terre
Déposer un peu d'angoisse
Y respirer un peu d'air
Autre part, autre frontière

La tête à l'envers
J'fais jamais jamais jamais l'affaire

Déguisé comme un gagnant
Tout dehors et rien dedans
Bronzage été comme hiver
Ça j'ai jamais su le faire

J'suis tombé profond profond
J'croyais tous les zéros frères
Mais dans la jungle des bas-fonds
Rallume un peu la lumière
J'suis pas plus doué pour l'enfer

La vie à l'envers
J'fais jamais jamais jamais l'affaire

J'ai cherché dans tous les livres
En long, en large, en travers
J'ai rien trouvé qui délivre
J'ai rien trouvé qui espère

J't'ai pas dit les mots des autres
J'connais pas l'vocabulaire
Suffit pas d'être sincère
Y a des façons des manières
J'suis pas doué j'sais pas y faire

Le cœur à l'envers
J'fais jamais, jamais, jamais
Jamais, jamais, jamais l'affaire
Le cœur à l'envers
Jamais, jamais, jamais l'affaire
La vie à l'envers
J'fais jamais, jamais, jamais l'affaire
La vie à l'envers
J'fais jamais, jamais, jamais l'affaire
La vie à l'envers

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
