LIGHTS OUTS!
i can see the evil in your eyes
fuck yeah!
i can see the evil in your smile
fuck you!
all i know is tonight is the night
i gotta play this by the book
so take a stab at my broken heart
fuck yeah!
you can even have the first damn shot.
fuck you!
cos you know i shoot to kill

i gotta get this off my chest.
round and round and round we go
if its perfect then its just fine by me
you picked the wrong war.
you picked the wrong WAR!

RIOT! RIOT!
IM A RIOT? YOURE A FUCKING RIOT!
IM A RIOT? YOURE A RIOT!

yeah!
im just a good guy in a bad, bad town
im just a bad boy with a good reputation.

oh oh oh oh ohhhh
you gotta reap what you sew
WRONG WAR!
you gotta reap what you sew!
WRONG WAR!

    this is an ace song.

    i am guessing that this is about 2 people who are in a fight with each other and its basically saying "bring it on! you're gonna loose!"

    [in an interview, sean smith stated that] the title of this song comes from a sketch by the comedian dane cook, who the whole band are fans of.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Cajun Girl
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.

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/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
