Who are these men from your Middle America
Their political views they are cause for hysteria

Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes

They drive motorcycles but as boys they rode bikes
Their social position will reveal their dislikes to you

Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes Sometimes Sometimes

Better than some I’ve got a lot to learn
I’m driving pickup toward the city, and I’m not very good
You’ve got your panoramic vision but you just can’t see
The inequalities that are in front of you that’s the letter E
You’re in solitude confinement here, in the office space from hell

Who are these men from your Middle America
Five million ten million middle American

Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes

If they show some concern it’s probably just a front
I don’t know, no left turns, no turns, that’s what they want from you

Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes Sometimes Sometimes

Revoke all their licenses, do it permanently
Or just suspend their bleeding licenses do it temporarily
You can put them in jail or just let them alone
He sure does know he’s a blow hard frankly I don’t know
There are lousy there’s some good some bad
But none as good as I am

You’ve got your master plan for your Middle America
Like crashing my van into Middle America

Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes

The panoramic vision it is turning on
Pardon me sir while I drive back on over you

Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes (sometimes)
Sometimes Sometimes Sometimes

So they hit the breaks hard and of course swerve to the right
So you can be a circle or a triangle for life
More education before licensing’s stiffer penalties
Remedial education for violators
Or D all of these

Your A, excellent
B, passable
Or C, just flunk yourself now!

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

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/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
