I know, I've been in conversation
I had a reservation
But now it's going slow
One trip, I fell into a big drop

While choking on a rain drop, and I ain't thirsty ... no
But suddenly I caught up with a rainbow
It's shadow glowed in the dark
And all of my answers turned into questions

The ending became the start
So, c'mon she said, turn on yourself
Baby's got a new revelation now
Exit to Zen, come take my hand ... we'll

Meet your maker and we'll do it all over again
One last time
A time
We'll kiss off, you're callused and abrasive

Over underrated and I won't break for you
Switch on my targeting computer
Camouflage mag shooter, specially made for you
While keeping an eye on a cool connotation

And tripping on a Winter's day
Asleep with the lights on, covered in angels
Won't stop before I go astray
So, c'mon she said, turn on yourself

Baby's got a new revelation now
Exit to Zen, come take my hand ... we'll
Meet your maker and we'll do it all over again
One last time

But suddenly I caught up with a rainbow
It's shadow glowed in the dark
And all of my answers turned into questions
The ending became the start

So, c'mon she said, turn on yourself
Baby's got a new revelation now
Exit to Zen, come take my hand, we'll
Meet your maker and we'll do it all over again

Well c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon
Baby's got a new revelation now
Exit to Zen, come take my hand, we'll

Meet your maker and we'll do it all over again
Do it again, one last time
A time, a time

    Generally from my perspective this song is about a girl doing LSD and having a life changing experience and finding a "new revelation".

    "One trip, I fell into a big drop While choking on a rain drop, and I ain't thirsty ... no"

    • LSD or ACID is usual dropped from a vial or a bottle onto a piece of paper / sugar cube / whatever. This explains the trip being really a big drop or a lot of LSD in a hit. Then having a life changing moment, "choking on a rain drop".

      Then from the constant saying "Do it again". LSD tends to cause people to repeat themselves over and over again.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
