Oh Miss Brown
Your ruby lipstick's gonna paint the town
You say you're happy
But your eyes let you down
But why not have another one
Regret it when tomorrow comes

Although you act the fool
I know you want a fella who doesn't treat you cruel
To show the other mothers at the school
That your not what they say you are
Someone who will do anything

Oh for love of Miss Brown
Oh for love of Miss Brown
Oh for love of Miss Brown
I'd do it all for the love of Miss Brown

I'd love to sleep tonight
But I'm not one for overstaying my invite
I won't be creeping out the backdoor
When it's nearly light
It's alright when you're bladdered
You'll regret it when tomorrow comes

Always a man to blame
I bet you'd start a fire counting you're old flames
You say you've never met
A good un 'cause we're all the same
'Cause some of us are different
I know someone who will do anything

Oh for love of Miss Brown
Oh for love of Miss Brown
Oh for love of Miss Brown
I'd do it all for the love of Miss Brown

I bet that your son's got more uncles than most
Who is this strange man eating frosties and toast
Bet that your son's got more uncles than most
Introductions at breakfast for frosties and toast

Oh for love of Miss Brown
Oh for love of Miss Brown
Oh for love of Miss Brown
I'd do it all for the love of Miss Brown

    miss brown is normally a euphomism for heroin and it kinda makes more sense as a song about drug addiction. i do it all for the love of miss brown is possibly him saying all the bad things he does is for another fix

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental 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.
