Hoy, hoy
When Big Joan comes out, her arms are too small
Her head's like a ball
She's tied off her horse
And galloped off into the moonbeams
She pulled up her blouse, compared her navel to the moon
I dig my life for a while
When big Joan sets up
Her hands are too small
She's too fat to go out in the daylight
So she rolls around all night
I just saw the thread with a drooped body
I'll set up with you, big Joan
I'm too fat to go out in the daylight
I'll stay up all night
I won't droop if you won't talk about your hands bein' too small
You know something's happenin' or you wouldn't have come out like you did
She ain't built for goin' naked
So she can't wear any new clothes or go to the beach
They laugh at her body 'cause her hands are too small
When big Joan sits up, her hands are too small
She's out of reach
A turquoise scarf and silver rolled up over a Merc Montclair
I'll sit up with you Big Joan
I'm too fat to go out in the daytime
I'll stay up all night
If you promise not to talk about your hands bein' too small
Hoy, hoy, is she a boy?
When Big Joan comes out, her arms are too small
Her head's like a ball
She's tied off her horse
And galloped off into the moonbeams
She pulled up her blouse, compared her navel to the moon
I dig my life for a while
When big Joan sets up
Her hands are too small
She's too fat to go out in the daylight
So she rolls around all night
I just saw the thread with a drooped body
I'll set up with you, big Joan
I'm too fat to go out in the daylight
I'll stay up all night
I won't droop if you won't talk about your hands bein' too small
You know something's happenin' or you wouldn't have come out like you did
She ain't built for goin' naked
So she can't wear any new clothes or go to the beach
They laugh at her body 'cause her hands are too small
When big Joan sits up, her hands are too small
She's out of reach
A turquoise scarf and silver rolled up over a Merc Montclair
I'll sit up with you Big Joan
I'm too fat to go out in the daytime
I'll stay up all night
If you promise not to talk about your hands bein' too small
Hoy, hoy, is she a boy?

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
Actually there's a theory that Big Joan is a transsexual. Not just because of the last line because of the repetitions of "her hands are too small" - one of the visual signs of someone having undergone gender-corrective-therapy is unlikely "too-masculine" shapes and sizes of hands and feet
