Big deal, that's how you do it, hey!
Good luck and that's enough, yeah
First take, it's never too late
Cause I've been through it
Why don't we take a chance?

Hard times, it's alright
And you know that I've been through it
Mistakes, we all have made them
'Cause I've been through it
Why don't we take a chance?

Over and over
Over and over again

You might get lucky (Take a chance)
Forget the rough times (Take a chance)
We'll have to get it straight
'Cause I've been through it
Why don't we take a chance?

Cheap thrills, that's how you use it, hey!
So hot like it or not, yeah
Too much, I'm on the rocks
'Cause I've been through it
Why don't we take a chance?

Over and over
Over and over again

You might get lucky (Take a chance)
Forget the rough times (Take a chance)
We'll have to get it straight
'Cause I've been through it
Why don't we take a chance?

You might get lucky (Take a chance)
Forget the rough times (Take a chance)
We'll have to get it straight
'Cause I've been through it
Why don't we take a chance?

Hey, hey, hey

Cheap thrills, that's how you use it
So hot like it or not

Hey, hey, hey

Over and over
Over and over

Hey, hey, hey

You feel that's how you do it
Good luck, that's enough

Over and over
Over and over

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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.

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."

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
