Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow, when you say goodbye
To a tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow

What if you were livin' yours instead of hatin' mine findin' truth and spreadin' love and searchin'
Deep inside, see me glidin' swiftly to that place I need to be that home grown irie zone
Harvesting my seeds

I'm gonna live my life from day to night with no hesitation
Make the best of every situation that I find myself placed in
Decidin' right from wrong, choosing my final destination
Cause when it's said and done, it's just yourself that you are facin'

Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow- when you say goodbye to a
Tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow

Say Say
Say good-bye to tomorrow
Wash your sorrow
Live and learn
Listen up and follow
Do what you so let me rock it
I be dammed if you think you gonna stop it
Popo it drop it D-Loc get up on it
Don't you think your sink cause you can't call it
I be the one that balled you up in college
Killa cross just brake you down Kottonmouth Kings on the radio now
Make you think when you see my face D-Loc with style and grace

I want to touch the sky unleash control want to feel time travel real through my soul want to ride real
High want to lay real low independent free thought control my zone my zones full blown like a
Plant full grown transform myself through this microphone – Hold up
Change that tone Johnny
Richter come through with your barritone

It's time to open up your eyes and catch sight
'Cause you could wake up in the morning, and not make it to the night
Take advantage of your life, you only get one try
You gonna be satisfied today if tonight you died?
Well I'm not that guy, I keep my blood runnin'
You say you've had enough, and I say keep it comin
Now you're bummed because you're done and you're left all alone
Should've known livin blown you'd end up like a clone WHAATTTT!

Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow- when you say goodbye to a
Tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow

It's not a place on any map it's Kaya meditation that home grown herbal zone peaceful
Medication at peace no understandin no condition but love at peace all accepting to the sky above

Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow- when you say goodbye to a
Tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow

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.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.
