If you could pick your guitar like you pick your nose,
Or play a clean lick like you lick clean your toes,
If you were less like a thistle, and more like a rose
You could be the shit
Yeah you could be the shit
You could be the shit like me

But your lyrics are trite and redundant
Chock full of cliches like sardines in a can
You tend to repeat things again and again
You can’t write for shit,
No you can’t write for shit
You can’t write for shit like me

Your band sucks my ass
And bows down before me
To kiss the tips of my painted toes
And lick my callused feet
Your band sucks
Your band sucks
Your band sucks me

But then one day
In the month of may
Sitting complacent and bored
They played your song on the radio
And I heard your power chords
And they didn’t suck
No they didn’t suck
They didn’t suck me

Well I’ve changed my views and I see the light
This competition between, it just ain’t right
And I don’t wanna end up in a great big fight
‘cause your band kicked the shit
yeah your band kicks the shit
your band kicks the shit out of me

My band sucks my ass
And bows down before me
To kiss the tips of my painted toes
And lick my callused feet
My band sucks
My band sucks
My band sucks me

    Whatever TR is the best they would never write a song dissing themselves.

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."

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.

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.
