Well I could see by the way that she danced for me
She want to break my heart
Want to tear it apart
Yeah I could see by the way she danced for me
If I give her ten dollars I could get anything that I want

So what's a girl like you doing in a place like this
Lets forget that I asked baby give me a kiss
So stop biting my fingernails
They're starting to bleed
Let's skip the formalities
And get down to what we're here for

I'll do anything for you
Anything that you want me to
It's just gonna to take
A little more money

Do anything for you
Anything that you want me to
It's just gonna to take
A little more money

So this big old guy comes up to me
And says hey skinny white boy
I don't like the way you look at my girlfriend
What an ugly thing to say
But don’t you flatter yourself
I don't think that much of your girlfriend

So that big old guy socks me in the nose
I falls on my back and gets blood on my clothes
He says hey skinny white boy
What do you think about that
I says it doesn't change much
I still don't think that much of you girlfriend

I'll do anything for you
Anything that you want me to
It's just gonna to take
A little more money

Do anything for you
Anything that you want me to
It's just gonna to take
A little more money

So what's a girl like you doing in a place like this
No forget that I asked baby give me a kiss
So stop biting my fingernails
They're starting to bleed
Why don’t we just skip the formalities
And get down to what we're here for

I'll do anything for you
Anything that you want me to
It's just gonna to take
A little more money

Do anything for you
Anything that you want me to
It's just gonna to take
A little more money

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America.

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.
