My Egyptian lover...

I see your girl
But she don't do it like me
She's not that type
I see it in your eyes
You need a freak
Someone to keep your secret
A girl like me (Uhuh)
Who knows what's on your mind

You know I'm hot (Ow!)
I see you looking at me
Stop wasting time (Yeah)
And come with me tonight
Stop spending money on me
Make up your mind
If you're coming home with me
You're running out of time! (Ahh)

[Chorus:]
My egyptian lover
(My egyptian lover)
There is no other
(My egyptian lover)
My egyptian lover
(My egyptian lover)
There is no other
(There is no other!)

I see you boy
But you don't holla at me
I think you're shy
I'll show you what to do
I'll be your dog (Woof)
Come to you when you call me
Just close your eyes (Uhuh)
And dance with me tonight

You make me hot (Ow!)
You got me goin' crazay
You're on my mind (Yeah)
And make my heart go boom
Stop acting shady on me
And wasting time
Then you can take me on your magic carpet ride (Aohh!)

[Chorus: Repeat 2X]

    Obviously about a fun girl who says she does it better than the man's girlfriend. Perhaps used to imply that the man's girlfriend is boring or not as wild as the other girl is.

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.

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."

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,

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.
