In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
I bounce in the club so the hoes call me Rocky
Posted in the cut, and I'm lookin' for a blockhead
Yup in my white tee, I break a bitch back
And I keep a big bank, oh I think they like that
Before I leave the house, I'm slizzard on the Goose
And I'm higher then a plane, so a nigga really loose
And I can lean wit' it (lean wit' it)
And I can rock wit' it (rock wit' it)
And if you gotta friend, she gotta suck the cock wit' it
Ayy, gon' and rock wit' it (gon' and rock wit' it)
Gon' and lean wit' it (gon' and lean wit' it)
Rock so damn hard, you break your spleen wit' it (you break your spleen wit' it)
Pull up ya jeans wit' it (pull up ya jeans wit' it)
Smoke some green wit' it (smoke some green wit' it)
And the spot ain't crunk bitch if we ain't in it (bitch if we ain't in it)
If you don't wanna do it (if you don't wanna do it)
Then I'll make ya dance (then I'll make ya dance)
Perfect example watch me make your face beat up my hands (beat up my hands)
When you see me hit the spot (spot), betta watch that boy (boy)
Charlay from the road, wit' Dem Franchize Boyz
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
I'm too clean to wanna pop, lock from left to right a nigga lean
Vibin' to the beat, check my feet, he ain't got these
I rock then bend my knees every time the beat drop
Lean wit' it, rock wit' me, freeze before yo fingers pop
Purple lean, purple green grams in my socks
The fuck you mean you ain't seen buddy on the block?
They call me Doctor Doc, I prescribe what a nigga need
Make 'em lean and rock, old school people pat ya feet
Bitch I'm pimpin' in the club, so the hoes start to act up
'Cause they see my chain and a nigga throwin' them stacks up
I keep a full clip and my pistol in my pants
I'm in the middle of the flo', they screamin', "Nigga do yo' dance!"
You can roll yo' arms (roll yo' arms), and just put 'em in rotation (rotation)
Go side to side and snap yo' fingas like them Temptations
Dog, I'm all outta state doin' a dance, they never seen that
I ain't Fat Joe, but snap yo' fingas then you lean back
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Rock left then snap yo' fingers, rock right then snap yo' fingers
Ayy, what's hannenin'? Lean wit' me, rock wit' me
Gotta pill pop wit' me, gon' take a shot wit' me
Call me Teddy, I got grams don't hate, nigga shop wit' me
D.F.B., So So Def, hell yeah, we on bitch
Franchize ain't got no money? Shit, hold on, hold on bitch
Ayy, rock left rock right, you can get that shit
Lean back like Fat Joe and snap your wrist back
Gangsters don't dance (nah)
They lean wit' it rock, wit' it
Glock wit' me, pop quickly (uh)
gansters gon' rock wit' me (uh)
One, two, pop (uh)
And bring it 'cross the chest wit' it (uh)
Get nasty, flashy, go on flex wit' it
Do it how you want it, slow it up, do the matrix
Play wit' it, straight hit it, get all in they face wit' it
This dance is for the killers, the dealers, the cutthroats
You already know, the chillen, the grown folk
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it
Lean wit' it, rock wit' it

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Only reason i dont get rapper's CD's is becuz there is too much swearing and dirty words. This song is obviously gangsta rap. I have to get edited versions of rapper's CD's. I dont like hearing so many F words and niggas and sucking cocks...bad, bad language. Even tho I say it sometimes myself, doesn't make it right...so anyway, the best part of the song is when they say "Gangstas dont dance. They lean wit it, rock wit it..." and "Do the matrix wit it..." ha ha. The matrix-I've seen the video to lean wit it. I think Laffy Taffy is better tho.
