I swear to god! Look!
This is something new you've never heard before this
You better take a good look at your mind, fucker
I know what you want to come here for

You better take a good look at your mind, fucker
These three little, these three little fuckers
These three little, pumpkin patch
These three little pumpkins went into the woods and they said

They said today we're gonna find something really good to look at
And they went into the woods and they looked at all the little trees
And they said this woods is really continuous little trees
You know, 'cause nature is just as part of us as we are to the earth

I said yeah
And the pumpkins, the pumpkins went further into the woods
And they came across this little man with a big, big head
And the little man said, "What's your fucking idea you fuckers?

What are you fucking high?"
And the little pumpkin says,
"We're the pumpkins to join yours for a loose the pumpkin"
"Oooey! Oooey! Oooey!

You ain't been in my world
You never been in my world
You never will be in my world
You go away and you'll never be in my world again"

The pumpkin boy said, "Yes you will, yes you will, I think to stay
I want to be in your world
For you in your world"
"Yeah you fuckers, you can't get me off before you leave yourself

You think you can understand but you can't!
Look, you just entered my world, right?
You just entered my world and it's quite like you go in and for
Then enjoy nothing but share and progress

You think you can go from the top of the tree to the top of this too"

The two pumpkins looked at the little man and they said,
"Why, why would he be such a, why would he be such a jerk?
And the only thing he does is smoke drugs,
And he doesn't do cocaine,
And he doesn't shoot smack,
And he doesn't even drink beer
Why would he be such a fucker to me?
Why would he be such fuckers?"
All they wanted to do was pumpkins
All they wanted to laugh at was the pumpkins

Go back! Get out of the woods! Get out of the woods!
It's only the beginning - it is only the beginning - it is only the beginning
Stop the tape

    As stereotypical as it sounds this song is named after a drug. Morning Glory is a potent form of LSA- similar to LSD. The addition of the letter "u" to Mo"u"rning Glory may be a play on words, reffering to a famous painting or possibly the movie Mourning Glory.

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.

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."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
