Blessed be the doctor and blessed be the nurse.
Blessed be the coachman who put me in the hearse.
Blessed be the blessings and blessed be the curse.

Rattled from the sediment
Old bones around the settlement.
Tell who passed out the medicine
The dose was much too strong.

He goes to bed bereft and berated
And rests his head in the hands of the over rated.
Sweating bullets in the faculty lounge,
Sensing treason they're not waiting around;
On the first bus out of town
They're playing movies that they've already seen.

The jewelry advances as the gums recede,
The devil goes out dancing on the angels perceived needs, please go easy on me.

Cheap sex with a discount broker-
Cop's walkie-talkie squawks breaker-breaker,
We got to take her down to the station
She says that that broker broke her.

Read the text at the ticker tape parade-
The subtext is that someone's getting paid off.
Check the checks at the ticker tape parade-
Pay stubs of the people who've been laid off.

Insurance can't cover what the world's exposed-
Open nerves. Touching toes to stretch,
The A.C. made us retch.
Can you conceive of working for the
Emperor's new clothes?


(please go)
Please go easy on me!
Please go easy on me!
Please go easy on me!
(please go)

Please go easy on me!
Please go easy on me!
Please go easy on me!
(please go)

Please go easy on me!
Please go easy on me!
Please go easy on me!
(please go)
Please go easy on me!

    I believe it's

    Blessed be the doctor, blessed be the nurse Blessed be the coachman who took us in the herse Blessed be the blessing and blessed be the curse

    Paddle from the sediment All those around the settlement Dilute themselves in medicine The dose was much too strong!

    He goes to bed, bereft and berated And rests his head in the hands of the overrated.

    Woo-Woo

    Sweating bullets in the faculty lounge Says it's treason and not waiting around On the first bus out of town Playing movies that we've already seen

    The chill in the abyss as the gums receed The devil does a dance on the edge of the sea needs

    Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me!

    Cheap sex with a discount broker Cops, walkie-talkie squash, breaker breaker, We got to take her down to the station She says that that broker broke her

    Read the text at the ticker-tate parade The sub-text is that someone's getting paid off Check the checks at the ticker-tate parade Pay stubs of the people who've been laid off

    Woo-Woo

    Inssurance can't count but the world's exposed Open nerves, times they told us to stretch The A/C made us RETCH

    Can you concieve us Working for the Emperors new clothes

    (please go) Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! (please go) Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! (please go) Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! Please go easy on me! (please go) Please go easy on me!

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

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.
