I remember when I was a little girl
Growin' up livin' in my own little world, so it seemed
I had my dolls and dreams
Momma was always there to comfort me and give me love
And there wasn't nothin' quite like it in the world that I knew of

Before I knew it I was standin' in my teens
Sweet little boy with his strong young arms holdin' me
I remember the first time I felt his kiss
Ooh, it like to drove me crazy and I remember sayin'
"I never felt nothin' like this"

So I went and asked momma, "Can you tell me what it means?"
She said, "You're in love and that's every little girl's dream?
"Baby, what you found is every little girl's dream"

So I said, "Momma, does love ever last?"
She said, "Worry about now and let the future come to pass
Just understand and enjoy what you've found
And listen to it as long as your heart hears the sound of love?

?There ain't nothin' quite like it in the world anybody knows of"
So there I was, all through my teens
Same little boy with his strong young arms lovin' me
I remember the first time I felt his kiss
Ooh, it like to drove me crazy and I remember sayin'
"I never felt nothin' like this"

And I remember sayin' to momma, "I know just what you mean
I'm in love and that's every little girl's dream
What I found is every little girl's dream"

And I found mine and momma said
"Me too, baby, once upon a time
Lifts you up, it lets you down
There'll be another dream to bring you back around

There's somethin' about the first time
That keeps you rememberin'
You found every little girl's dream
Every little girl's dream

Found every little girl's dream
(I remember the first time I felt his kiss)
I found every little girl's dream
(I remember sayin', "Nothin' ever felt like this")

I found every little girl's dream
(I found someone and I fell in love)
I found every little girl's dream
(Nothin' in the world quite like it anybody knows of)
I found every little girl's dream

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."

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
