Tell me who's watching me..

Every day there's camera's flashin'
I hide behind dark sunglasses
Everyone wants to take a shot
Cuz nobody has what I got
Steppin out on the scene
Living life in a magazine
A million eyes I can't avoid
In limousines I'm paranoid

(Chorus:)
I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
And I have no privacy
I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
Tell me is it just a dream?

The star in my eye is dying
Flashbulbs always blinding
My lipgloss is shining
But that look is lying
Fake smiles, let's pretend
Everyone acts like they're my friend
Build up, knock down, that's the trend
I'm not buying it
That's why..

(Chorus:)
I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
And I have no privacy
I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
Who's playin' tricks on me?
I always feel like somebody's watchin' me
Tell me is it just a dream?

Step back!
Stop and stare
There's people everywhere..
I don't care
Stop and stare

(Chorus repeat until end)

    first part that i forgot:

    I see those cameras flashing I have my dark tint glasses Everyone wants to take a shot Everyone knows what I got

    Stepping out now on the scene Livin' life in the magazines A million dollars I can afford It makes me paranoid

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
