Bullhorn: "Save the falsetto valentines for the black ice cube toast, for the filth roast."
Classified: You know she looks so clinique, but when you think she's asleep, we're watching from inside the pilots seat. Because unfortunately thes Marylin Monroe is a secret Zeppelin whose sweat rains down napalm confetti on all black tie celebrations.
Bullhorn: Tear out your carnivorous toupee for the afro fire, save your hors'dovours for the boiling lobster choir.
Classified: You know she looks so vulnerable in that snakeskin shawl, but we're watching through her cut out eye holes (because unfortunately this Marylin Monroe is a Secret Zepplin known towing a sign across the Coca-cola sky that reads S.S. Penetration)
God Bless you Bloodthirsty Zeppelins!
Technique: And now we're flying over the past and future butchered from out brains and left to rot. And now we're flying over the television towers plastering the air with the filthy film of prayer. We don't need a blueprint we don't need a blue print the blueprints me the blue prints you.
Classified: We'll build our engines from hyjacked hymans. Propellers churning in whispered fury. We'll pluck our bombs from the greased pouch of your presidents propighanda pupa louse.
Message received: "Honey I'll be home late, from the office today, up to my neck in paperwork, yeah, my boss is such a jerk."
Telephone wire: "Yeah she bought the story...there's a motel up the street...so show me your surrender face baby"
Bullhorn: Unfortunately this Marylin Monroe is a secret Zeppelin set on a crash coarse with your cumshot museum with the blowjob bunny mansion.
Technique: And now we're flying over factories manufacturing authentic ecstacy. And now we're flying over the swamp that brews the biggest smiles, cackling teeth in piles. And now we're flying over the globe derobed all the houses x-rayed all our thoughts exposed. And all the copyrighted memories in my head spill to the floor in a puddle of hungry lead. And while the traffic weaves human tapestry's we sing a chord to the frustriation symphony. Unfortunately this marylin monroe is a secret sepplin...

    i interpret this song as a profound statement on male/female gender relations in a deluded, consumerist, disposable society. w/ the zeppelin as a metaphor for pregnancy.

    "yeah she bought the story + there's a motel nearby now show me your surrender face baby" (someone attempting to have an affair)

    "unfortunately this Marilyn Monroe is a secret zeppelin, set on a crash course with your cumshot museum with the blowjob bunny mansion" (...affairs generally turn out badly, because no woman is satisfied being the 'other woman' and will eventually want monogamy, a baby, etc, ruining your playboy fantasies)

    if you think this song is about politics... wow... you really missed the point broski

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

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.
