Well, you must be a girl with shoes like that
She said, "You know me well"
I've seen you and little Steven and Joanne
Around the back of my hotel, oh yeah
Someone said you was askin' after me
But I know you best as a blagger
I said, "Tell me your name, is it sweet?"
She said, "My boy, it's Dagger", oh yeah
Woo

I was good, she was hot
Stealin' everything she got
I was bold, she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear, thank you, dear
Bring your sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it

Do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Well, you must be a boy with bones like that
She said, "You got me wrong"
I would've sold 'em to you if I could've
Just to've kept the last of my clothes on, oh yeah
Call me up, take me down with you when you go
I could be your regular belle
And I shall dance for little Steven and Joanne
Around the back of my hotel, oh yeah
Woo

I was good, she was hot
Stealin' everything she got
I was bold, she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear, thank you, dear
Bring your sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it

Chelsea, Chelsea, I believe
That when you're dancin' slowly, suckin', your sleeve
The boys get lonely after you leave
It's one for the Dagger and another for the one you believe
Chelsea, I believe
That when you're dancin' slowly, suckin', your sleeve
The boys get lonely after you leave
It's one for the Dagger, another for the one you believe
The one you believe
Oh, no, no, no, no

Do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do

    So. A Chelsea smile or grin is when someone is cut from the edge of the mouth to the ear, making what appears to be a huge smile. It's also known as a Glasgow smile, which it is named so because it started in Glasgow, Scotland. The Fratellis just so happen to be from Glasgow. Coincidence?

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”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“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.
