In the back of his mind he could have been
A prize fighter like Muhammad Ali
Or maybe Prince Nazeem
But in school he was prayed upon
From the very start
For being way too petite and a little light on his feet
But once he heard that Arnie was bullied at school
But just a few years later he became the Terminator
He turned his mind to steak and weights
Its time to get those bullies back
Its time to get those bullies right back

Looking for a skinny kid to break some bones

Looking in the mirror and his t-shirts feeling tight
Hes praying to the God of war because he wants to fight tonight
In the background you can hear the CD spinning in the player
This is fight music for the fight
This is fight music for the fight

Now its 10 years on
The weights have taken their toll
Because he's dosed up on the steroids
And his plan has been deployed
He's turned from victim into the oppressor
Yes he feels the satisfaction when he hears those backbones cracking

Every time he throws a fist he feels he's getting them back
For everytime those nobs flushed his head down the bogs
So everynight you'll catch him on the door at the club
At his head his eyeballs are popping
Yes you'll see those heads are knocking
He's looking for a skinny kid to break some bones

Looking in the mirror and his t-shirts feeling tight
Hes praying to the God of war because he wants to fight tonight
In the background you can hear the CD spinning in the player
This is fight music for the fight
This is fight music for the fight

Na na na na naa
Na na na na naa
Na na na na naa
Na na na na naa

Looking in the mirror and his t-shirts feeling tight
Hes praying to the God of war because he wants to fight tonight
In the background you can hear the CD spinning in the player
This is fight music for the fight
This is fight music for the fight

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.

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.
