Una señora patillalera
Muy elegante, vestida de negro
Formó en el Valle una gritería
Porque la nieta que más quería
La pechichona, la consentida
Un dueño e' carro cargó con ella

Tranquilízate Juana Arias
Déjate de tanta bulla
Que tú te mueres de rabia
Y ellos mascándose en la cabuya

Ella gritaba yo crie a mi nieta
Con buena ropa, con buen calzado
Con mucho esmero y estimación
Pa' que ahora venga ese sin vergüenza
Nariz parada, patillalero
A entusiasmarla con su camión.
A todo el mundo empezó a decirle
Oigan señores pa' que lo sepan
Representante yo tengo empilas
En Patillal es Colás Martínez
Que es la única persona que sirve
Y aquí en el Valle el doctor Molina
Estate quieta Juana Arias
Deja a los muchachos quietos
Que tú te mueres de rabia
Y ellos se están mascando el cabestro

Si usted confía en el doctor Molina
Doña Juana Arias, siento decirle
Que en este caso ha perdido todo
Porque ese no afloja su chinchorro
Ni si le dan todos los tesoros
Ni si le dan todo lo que brilla
Es eminente y capacitado
Fuma tabaco y habla de todo
Y tiene muy buena reputación
Fue magistrado con gran decoro
Por eso no cambia su chinchorro
Ni por la silla del gobernador

Doña Juana Arias, que tontería
Ha cometido un error muy grande
En lo que se ha puesto con Luis Manuel
Usted pendiente la policía
Y ellos felices quién sabe dónde
Estarán gozando su luna e' miel

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.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
