Life's just a game that you have to play,
Gotta have a hand just to stay sane,
Why's it always seem I lose my turn?
Well, the game's gotten old and my brain is sore,
I still role the dice, but I can't keep score,
Still just a pawn, I await my crown.
My life lies on an old chess board,
I hide in the corners to avoid the storms,
Maybe some day I might just win.
I know some day when the tables turn,
I'll jump ahead and you'll be burnt.
All I ask is just a chance.
Gamble with life everyday,
Time doesn't matter anyway.
You can say that I'm so lost,
But you're just the one who sits home and rots!
I'm gonna have me some fun!
I won't stop 'till I'm done.
I won't sit home all locked up.
I'm gonna go out an get things done.
I'm not afraid to change my life.
I'm gonna do what's Right for me.
I'm gonna have me some fun!
I won't stop 'till I'm done.
I won't sit home all locked up.
I'm gonna go out an get things done.
I'm not afraid to change my life.
I'm gonna do what's Right For Me.
Gamble with life everyday,
Time doesn't matter anyway.
You can say that I'm so lost,
But you're just the one who sits home and rots!
But I'm gonna have me some fun!
Won't stop 'till I'm done.
I won't sit home all locked up.
I'm gonna go out an get things done.
I'm not afraid to change my life.
I'm gonna do what's Right For Me!

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
