Turn the lights off, turn the lights off
Your daddy better lock up his girl
Say a prayer boy, call on the cops
'Cause you ain't gotta run when the music comes on

Board up the doors, the windows
And keep your crying under your breath
'Cause I smell a drop of fear in a ten gallon tank
And I'm movin' in for the kill

Yeah, in the wild kingdom
You don't live 'til you're ready to die
You don't live 'til you're ready to die
You don't live 'til you're ready to die
You don't live 'til you're ready to die

Which one of you sons of bitches
Is going to make me feel alive?
Which one of you motherfuckers
Is going to get inside my heart
Is going to get inside my heart
Is going to get inside my heart attack? Whoa

It's a full moon, death in the sky
And the [Incomprehensible] circus is freaking out
Run for you life, cover your eyes
I don't want you to see me while I'm a little high

I've got a bone to pick with
The morning sun and the first five
But I didn't put my hair in a pony tail for nothing
So if I'm going home alone I'm not going at all

Yeah, in the wild kingdom
You don't live 'til you're ready to die
You don't live 'til you're ready to die
You don't live 'til you're ready to die
You don't live 'til you're ready to die

Which one of you sons of bitches
Is going to make me feel alive?
Which one of you motherfuckers
Is going to get inside my heart
Is going to get inside my heart
Is going to get give me a heart attack?

Look away it's too much to bare
I've been bitten by the party animal
Save yourself, save yourself
And tell my baby that I loved her so

Don't cry, don't cry
I gave the world one hell of a time today
Don't regret a thing
Except for the times that I got caught givin' in

Hey, hey, hey

I never thought it would take
A hair [Incomprehensible]
So where are you supposed to escape
When the creature is lurking inside you?

    I'm pretty sure it's "I smell a drop of fear in a ten gallon tank and I'm movin' in for the kill." In addition, and these are still just what I think it may be.

    "I've been bitten by the party animal."

    "Don't regret a thing except for the times that I got caught givin' in."

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.

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,

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.
