@[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.
I've got the magic in me
Everytime I touch that track
It turns into gold
Everybody knows
I've got the magic in me
When I hit the floor
The girls come snapping at me
And everybody wants the presto magic
Magic
I got the magic in me
These tricks that I'll attempt will blow your mind
Pick a verse, any verse, I'll hypnotize you in every line
I'll need a volunteer, how 'bout you, with the eyes?
Come on down to the front, sit right here, and don't be shy
I'll have you time travelin', have your mind babblin',
People try to inherit the skills, so they askin' it
Even David Blaine had to go and take some classes in it
I see Mindfreak, hey what's up man, what's happenin'?
So come one, come all, and see the show tonight
Prepare to be astounded, no ghost or poltergeist
You know I'm no Pinocchio, I never told a lie
So call me Mr. Magic Man, I float on cloud 9
I've got the magic in me (I've got the magic baby)
Everytime I touch that track
It turns into gold (Yes, it turns to gold)
Everybody knows
I've got the magic in me (I've got the magic baby)
When I hit the floor
The girls come snapping at me (They be snappin' baby)
And everybody wants the presto magic
Magic
I got the magic in me
Now take your journey into my mind
You'll see why it's venom I rhyme
Stay on the road, so I call my mama when I got time
I hit the stage, go insane, and jump into that crowd
See, see when I rhyme I flow on the beat like pidda-dow-dow
See, I'll deceive you with my intergalactic ether
I sing just like Aretha, so respect me like I'm Caesar
I kick it like Adidas, flowin' sticky like adhesive
Be cautious 'cause what I be on'll leave you with amnesia
I break all the rules like Evil Knievel
It's a spectacular show 'cause my heart pumps diesel
So whatever you sayin', it don't entertain my ego
I do this every day, hocus pocus is my steelo
I've got the magic in me (I've got the magic baby)
Everytime I touch that track
It turns into gold (Yes, it turns to gold)
Everybody knows
I've got the magic in me (I've got the magic baby)
When I hit the floor
The girls come snapping at me (They be snappin' baby)
And everybody wants the presto magic
Magic
I got the magic in me
I got the magic in me
Everytime I touch that track
It turns into gold
Everybody knows
I've got the magic in me
When I hit the floor
The girls come snapping at me
And everybody wants the presto magic
Magic
I got the magic in me
These tricks that I'll attempt will blow your mind

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.

Wow. I usually don't like this kind of music, but this awesome. I listened to this for an hour staright. This is pretty cool; I listened to it while reading Harry Potter which is kind of funny. I usually jump all over people who try to make magic about getting chicks, but this is the only exception.
