[Right now you have the urge to eat something.
When it's through if you still want to eat, then you're probably really hungry.
Think about what I'm saying]

F.A.T
That is me
But I didn't used to be
I was hot. I was hungry
I was loose. I was free
Then I waited in the line
For some burgers and some fries
Super size, that'd be nice
Take a bite and close your eyes

Round 2, what do I do
I can barely walk around
Jenny Craig, Richard Simmons
But I still lug the pounds
Hamburgers, coke cola
Getting gas from too much soda
Double double, chunky chunky
Hope this meal is never over
The world is round, and so am I
Big boys, big girls with real big thighs

(Chorus)
Super size, super size
The American way
Going down, throwing down
All day, every day
Super size, super size
The American way
Getting fat, getting broke
Either way you're gonna pay
Super size me
Super size me
Super size me
Super size me

Now I can't get out of bed
So i have to order rein
I'm a triple fat fatty
And I have a triple chin
Who's the blame
Call the lawyer
Try to settle outta court
Get some cash
Spend it fast
Cos I'm staring at my fork

Cos it's sad and it's lonely
Ham and cheese with balogne
Large pies, stuff-crusted
Doggy bagels for a phony
I have lost the motivation
To inhibit the sensation
But I loathe the frustration
Birthday cake, I take my face in
Turkey club with double bacon's
got healthy connotations
Fast food has over-taken
And has super sized the nation

(Chorus)

[If I can keep up this progress, I'd have 25 pounds. 25 pounds! That's a lot of weight.]

Kentucky fried, just fried
Chicken nuggets, dip it twice
Freeky fries and gelata
Philly cheese, drive-through diet
Pack more weight
Cardiac, heart attack
Back on track
Grow so fat, slim, fast, slim, slow
Touch your toes

Finger lickin'
Hit the border
Pull right up
And place your order
Yes sir, r'way
Right away
You deserve a break today!

Super size, super size
The American way
Going down, throwing down
All day, every day
Super size, super size
The American way
Getting fat, getting broke
Either way you're gonna pay
Super size me
Super size me
[Put something in your mouth]
Super size me
(Can I get extra cheese with that?)
Super size me
(Whatdaya mean 50 cents for extra cheese?)
Super size me
(I come here all the time!)
Super size me
(Hook your brother up!)
Super size me
(Ooh I'm a fan)
Super size me
(All you can eat all day)
Super size me
(Is that the biggest size you've got?)
Super size me
(I said I want it super-sized)
Super size me
(Can I get like, a bucket with a handle?)
Super size me
(2 for a dollar? I'll take it!)
Super size me
(All I need is 3 more forks)
Super size me
(And another seta hands)

[That's a pretty good idea]

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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/

Plastic Bag
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.
