Kokamantratarius

Pain (USA)

Blank walls in a restaurant bathroom.
Black marker though just a pen would do
Small words and simple poetry.
Say what you want to say
In just the perfect way
And all the people say:

Kokamantratarius
Hero for the average Joe.
It makes him feel like
POW! BLAM! YEAH!
Fire in the hole!
Kokamantratarius above the toilet bowl.

Cracked tiles and cold white cinder blocks
Soon wear his words.
It’s like a diarrhea diary for men.
He’s like a Robert Frost if Robert Frost had been
Strange and nefarious and ungregarious.
The road less traveled is for Kokamantratarius.

Kokamantratarius
Hero for the average Joe.
It makes him feel like
POW! BLAM! YEAH!
Fire in the hole!
Kokamantratarius above the toilet bowl.

Here I stand with pete in hand
I’m hoping that you’ll understand
That all my life I’ve been a freak,
Afraid to laugh, afraid to speak.
But now you’ll have to listen to me.
Now you’ll have to listen to me,
Now you’ll have to listen now
But I don’t have a thing to say.

Average Joe, hero for the average Joe.
It makes him feel like shit.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

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/

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.

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.
