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.
Sad, bored, dumb, lazy and low
Watches lord of the rings 5 times in a row
It’s the special edition with the extra footage in
Without the explicit scenes of merry and pippin
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Happy, awake, joyful and high,
I think I'll have a slice of chicken pie,
It's the special recipe with extra gelatin,
Made in a pie shop based in Dunfermline.
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Like a horsey
Like a horsey
Like Moses parting the rivers on d-day
Ride the cheese like a horsey
Look at him he can play the guitar
He’s read every page of the Qu’ran
He would rate it 5 out of 5
Because of the way it makes wars and takes lives
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Ride the cheese
Like a horsey
Like a horsey
Like Moses parting the rivers on d-day
Ride the cheese like a horsey
So what do you do when you're bored?
You just chant:
FFFFFFA FFFFFFA FFFFFFA FFFFFFA FFFFFFA FFFFFFA FFFFFFA FFFFFFA
Like a horsey
Like a horsey
Like Moses parting the rivers on d-day
Ride the cheese like a horsey

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”
No Surprises
Radiohead
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.
Blue

“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.
Midnight
Ed Sheeran
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.
4,5,6 CHEEEEEEESSSSSSSEEEEEEE!!!!
Fuck yeah. Amazing song.
Written by George Banks and Lozza.
This song is about a cheese which is inflateable.
I thought the best bit was when it said Niv.
Yeah that line does rock.
"This song is about a guy who lives in a garage and haunts the town at midnight riding on his inflateable cheese with his sidekick, the vampire rat boy."
Sorry I forgot to mention that it is a speech made by the lead singer, George Banks.
If you look in the album artwork there is a diagram of how to ride a cheese like a horsey.
Marco's the worst member of the band. George is the coolest one. It's a well known fact.
The bit about FFFFFFA is rather inspired.
Before everyone asks "Why have the lyrics changed?" It's because I've seen them playing live and they said these are the final lyrics.
They're better because it says Like Moses Parting The Rivers On D-Day.
