If you look at me baby
I won't look at you
If you're good to me baby
I'll be good to you
I think you're old-fashioned
And you think I'm a tramp
But are you just gon' sit there
And watch me as I dance
You say "You're so perfect and pretty
I'm taking you with me
Run away from the city life"
Baby's lost and helpless
Soon everyone'll be jealous
'Cause soon we will be throwing rice

I could be such a wanderer
You can be such a monster
Baby, I don't want to fight
I don't care where we go
I don't care if they know
I just wanna be by your side
In the tropical moonlight

What's it gonna be baby?
What's it gonna be?
If I'm good to you
You better be good to me
Now the damage is done
So don't get so serious
I just wanna have fun
'Cause I'm young and curious
Amidst the madness
And the mayhem
And the triumph of love
I want you there
Again and again
Whenever I wake up

I could be such a wanderer
You can be such a monster
Baby, I don't wanna fight
I don't care if they know know
I don't care if we go
I just wanna hold you tight
In the tropical moonlight

Sometimes I'm wild at heart
Baby, that's a start
You like it, I can tell
Sometimes I'll get jealous
And sometimes I won't give back
And then sometimes
I'll pretend I'm someone else

I could be such a wanderer
You can be such a monster
Baby, I don't want to fight
I don't care if they know
I don't care where we go
I just wanna be by your side
In the tropical moonlight

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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
