My baby thinks she's French
My baby thinks she's French
She plays a Spanish guitar
At the coffee bar
She's takin' self-defense
My baby thinks she's French

She like the rose perfume
In the afternoon with her chocolate mints
She thinks she's French, she likes to kiss and kiss
Her flame is hard to quench

My baby thinks she's French
My baby thinks she's French
She drive a Citroen car
She sings me "Ooh-Wa-Wa"
She's prone to accidents
My baby thinks she's French

Well, it's Paris this
And it's Paris that, it makes me cringe
She thinks she's French, she likes to kiss and kiss
Her flame is hard to quench

My baby thinks she's French
My baby thinks she's French
She reads Mademoiselle
And when the clock strikes twelve
She wants to give me a pinch
My baby thinks she's French

She's a Texas doll
She likes shopping malls where the mood is French
With a southern drawl
They say "Come back, y'all"
And they never even flinch

My baby thinks she's French
My baby thinks she's French
She wants to start a fire
In the Eiffel Tower
She's lost all common sense
My baby thinks she's French

She likes the Moulin Rouge
When the sun shines through
She seldom squints
She breeds magnificence

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.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

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.
