I've got your answers, they're on my ribcage.
And I'm laughin' in the pouring rain.
I've seen your family, they look like monsters.
And I'm dancin' on a nameless grave.

Bored enough to call it off,
and dumb enough to think to stop.
And don't believe the flapping gums,
cause I know they've got us in their targets.
But I can’t tell if it's a joke,
you’re so intent on goin' broke.
I know that I won't miss them and I,
won't waste my time and kiss them away.

I've got my questions,
you never solve them.
Cause I'm laughin at your ball and chains.
I've seen your nightmares,
I'm always in them.
And I'm stompin' on your precious name.

Bored enough to call it off,
and dumb enough to think to stop.
And don't believe the flapping gums,
cause I know they've got us in their targets.
But I can’t tell if it's a joke,
you’re so intent on goin' broke.
I know that I won't miss them and I,
won't waste my time and kiss them away.

I've got your answers,
they're on my ribcage.
And I'm laughin' in the pouring rain.
I've seen your family,
they look like monsters.
And I'm dancin' on a nameless grave.

I'd like to say it ain’t true,
but things will never stop and now they’re coming for you.
{I've got my questions}
And if we can’t relax we’ll have to fight till we lose it all.
{You never solve them}
Cause I'm laughin' at your ball and chains.
{But we'll go down with our fists up!}

I'd like to say it ain’t true,
but things will never stop and now they’re coming for you.
{I'm in your nightmares}
And if we can’t relaxed we'll have to fight till we lose it all.
{I'm always in them}
And I'm stomping on your precious name.
{But we'll go down with our fists up!}

Gentle Hour
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,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
