Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Got a man in uniform
Riding up my day
He never said where he was from
And we were better off that way

There was something in the way
When he was polishing his buckle
So well he would see his reflection
But the sparkle's gone
Reckless with his seatbelt
And his foot is on the pedal
And his keys in the ignition
But the handbrake's on
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

And every time I look around
I see couples everywhere
As if my world was falling down
As if anyone would care

Huggin and a-kissin
It's a world of things I'm missing
I ain't got a pot to piss in
And in all my talk
It's pretty inconceivable
In fact it's unbelievable
I'm not so bloody leavable
Oh my God
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

Keep me satisfied
Keep me warm at night
I'm not after all the sake or the sushi in Japan
I'm a-waiting for my man
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

Around the time I took it back
He had a handlebar mustache
He was a hypochondriac
And he looked like Graham Nash
The place that he lived in was a
really really really really really nice place
But I got sick and tired of trying
To explain he wasn't dying
It was only influenza or a common cold
Fearin at my worst I went and got a proper nurse
And then they hit it off together
Now they're growin old
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

So he got a fisherman instead
But his chaff was out of line
Trying to get me into bed
He said "Your place or mine?"

But I had to kill the moment, funny feeling in my stomach
Made a date, I took the bait
The bugger reeled me in
But I had to avoid him now
That there was something bout his smile
It was tiny at the time
But now it's wearing thin
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

Keep me satisfied
Keep me warm at night
I'm not after all the sake
Or the sushi in Japan
I'm just waiting for my mister tambourine man
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

Then Malcolm came along
And stole away my heart
I know he's the one
Cause I read it in my chart

He was born in January
I was born in August
I'm a Leo that's a lion
He's a Capricorn
We were meant to be together
And it doesn't matter whether
You believe it's in the date and time that you were born
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

Keep me satisfied
Keep me warm at night
I'm not after all the sake or the sushi in Japan
I'm just waiting for my nowhere man
Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Hey hey, hey hey

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.

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."

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.

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
