It's a happy new year
I'm making guacamole
You couldn't even pick up the fucking phone and call me

I don't like my t-shirt
I don't like my blue jeans
I don't like my attitude, but it's gonna be a party

Whoa-oh
Let's party

It's a happy new year
Last year was so stupid
Most of us were drunk and even more of us were puking

Although I heard a rumour--
Something about bad shrimp?
Don't know how I made it up the stairs to your apartment

Whoa-oh
I remember it
Whoa-oh
Climbing up to bed
Whoa-oh
I remember it
I remember it

And that's not all that I'm forgetting
It's a new year, the last one's ending
Don't know how I ever made it out
Here's to nothing ever changing
If it were, then I'd be parting ways
With all the bad habits I found
But I still hang around
I still hang around
I still hang around
I still hang around

It's a happy new year
I'm eating guacamole
You kissed me at midnight 'cause you thought that I looked lonely

I don't like my outfit
I guess it's not important
'Cause I like your four-track and the things you record on it

It's the time of year now
To keep your close friends closest
We'll be friends forever and I don't care if you know it

It's a happy new year
Unlike all the rest
Feels like I am changing and I know it's for the best

Whoa-oh
I remember that
Whoa-oh
Climbing up to bed
Whoa-oh
I remember that
I remember that

And that's not all that I'm pretending
It's a new year, the last one's ending
And all the guacamole I made browned.
Here's to always ever-changing
Circumstances we're arranging
Throwing all our cautions to the ground
They only weigh you down
I won't let you down
I won't let you down
I won't let you down

Hey, did you know you can check the time
Your call reaches the other line?
Hey, did you know that I know you lied?
So board it up and don't even try
Last year is ending just in time.

I got out alive
I got out alive
I got out alive

It's a happy new year
Here I am again
Writing in my car, and this time I can't pretend that we are friends

We're not friends
Friends don't do the things we did
And the ones you've done since then makes think we've never been

When is this night gonna end?
Are you lying in her bed?
All these questions in my head
Hey where's the whiskey at again

You were discombobulated
When you showed up at my door
Leaving glitter on my floor
But I don't like you anymore

No, I don't like you anymore
No, I don't like you anymore
No, I don't like you anymore
No, I don't like you anymore

No, I don't like you anymore
No, I don't like you anymore
No, I don't like you anymore
No, I don't like you anymore

No Surprises
Radiohead
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.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
