Baby, baby, baby
From the day I saw you
I really, really wanted to catch your eye
Somethin' special 'bout you
I must really like you
'Cause not a lot of guys are worth my time, oh
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
It's getting kind of crazy
'Cause you are taking over my mind
And it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
I swear, it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
Oh, baby, baby, baby
I see us on our first date
You're doing everything that makes me smile
And when we had our first kiss
It happened on a Thursday
Ooh, it set my soul on fire
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
I can't wait for the first time
My imagination's running wild
It feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
And I swear it, baby, it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
I'm sayin', he don't even know what he's doin' to me
Got me feelin' all crazy inside
I'm feelin' like, oh
Doing more than I've ever done
For anyone's attention
Take notice of what's in front of you
'Cause did I mention (oh)
You bout' to miss a good thing?
And you'll never know how good it feels
To have all of my affection
And you'll never get a chance to experience my lovin' (oh)
'Cause my lovin' feels like
Ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go)
And I swear (will you ever know?)
It feels like
Ooh
You don't my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go) oh
(Will you ever know?)
Will you ever know it?
No, no, no, no, no
No, no
Will you ever know it?
Well, I'ma have to just go 'head and call this boy
Hello?
Can I speak to, to Michael?
Oh hey, how you doing?
Uh, I feel kinda silly doing this, but, uh
This is the waitress from the coffee house on 39th and Lennox
You know, the one with the braids?
Yeah, well, I see you on Wednesdays all the time
You come in every Wednesday on your lunch break, I think
And you always order the special with the hot chocolate
My manager be tripping and stuff
Talking 'bout we gotta use water but
I always use some milk and cream for you 'cause
I think you're kinda sweet
Anyway, you always got on some fly blue suit
And your cuff links are shining all bright
So, what you do? Oh, word? Yeah, that's interesting
Look, man, I mean, I don't wanna waste your time, but
I know girls don't usually do this
But I was wondering if maybe we could get together
Outside the restaurant one day?
You know 'cause I do look a lot different outside my work clothes and
I mean, we could just go across the street to the park right here
Wait, hold up, my, my cell phone breaking up, hold up
Can you hear me now? Yeah
So, what day did you say?
Oh, yeah, Thursday's perfect, man
And it feels like ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go) baby
(Will you ever know?) Baby, I swear, it's like, ooh
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?) No, no, no
And it feels like, ooh
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
And I swear on my mother and father it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
From the day I saw you
I really, really wanted to catch your eye
Somethin' special 'bout you
I must really like you
'Cause not a lot of guys are worth my time, oh
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
It's getting kind of crazy
'Cause you are taking over my mind

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
No Surprises

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.
Takes me straight back to my last year of college, where I lived out my meaning of this whole entire song! That’s when I walked into the job of my dream guy. Like the song said, there was something special about him. He was gorgeous…that’s all I really knew about him at the time. But I had to keep seeing him with my own eyes. He didn’t even have to talk to me. I talked to him 4 times, strictly because I was a customer at his office who needed help. Other than that, he never came up to me, and to this day I wonder if he ever noticed that I was secretly attracted to him. I was like Alicia in the song, telling myself things like “if he only took notice of me,” and “he’s missing out on a good thing.”
In the song, Alicia plays out their relationship in her head. Then she tells herself to call him, and tell him how she feels. After that, she talks to him and they agree to meet up. Sometimes when I listen to the song I imagine the phone call’s all in her head. She’s playing out what she’d do if she really got him on the phone. In the end, they never meet, and he never knows how she feels about him. Other times I think that she really did call him and confess her feelings. I felt like Alicia in the song: I had to tell him, even if he didn’t know who I was.
I saw him outside of work once and I thought it was a sign. I had to let it out. It didn’t play out like Alicia’s phone call though, lol. I did say, “I feel kind of silly doing this,” like she says in the song. He recognized me, and when I told him everything, he smiled. He said "Really?" and seemed too surprised at first to be flattered or humiliated. That’s why I wonder if he ever noticed that I was checking him out. He smiled at me, then congratulated my project, and grabbed me for the most innocent hug ever. All the time I pictured myself telling him I never expected him to say or do anything, but after I told him and he didn’t do or say anything, it made me sad. The feeling for him was probably nothing, but he made my year, and he had no idea. I moved out of town the next day, and I haven’t seen him since. And yes: He never knew my name.
Alicia takes me back to that time. In the six minutes of the song I can play out all those months I was hung up on him. You gotta feel this. You have to.
