[Imajin]
Bounce (yeah), rock, skate (yeah), roll
Bounce, rock, skate (ha), roll
Bounce

[Baby DC]
It's Friday, I had to work all week
Keep the cool hip, school, gettin' A's and be's
'cause if I came home with an F or a D
My momma woulda tripped about the skatin' rink
But since I got that under control
Daddy said it's cool, get his spark on
So I picked up the phone and called Rico
I told him I'd be at the rink for sure
Around 8 o'clock, they began playin' the grooves
That me and you like to bounce to
We rollin' man, on skates for sure
A gang of homies in the corner on the dance floor
Got the skate police always on patrol
Tryin' to catch you outta bunker if you gettin' too close
To the girl that you groovin' with
No stoppin' on the floor, keep moving it
To wearing straps to my feet, criss-cross to the beat
And all the people tryin' to peep the styles of the D
'cause I'm rollin', just havin' a ball
No time to laugh when somebody falls
Straight bouncin'

[Imajin]
Bounce (just see), rock, skate (everbody skatin' on the floor)
Roll, bounce (c'mon, c'mon), rock, skate (rollin', rollin', rollin')
Roll, bounce

[Baby DC]
Now it's 10 o'clock and the music stops
And it comes back on with a slow song
The announcer says 'Couples only'
And then all I see is cuties rushing at me
So I chose the one that I knew could roll
Not one steady fumble on the skatin' floor
Follow what the Joe shootin' pass me like the wind
When Darnell fallin' down and back up again
And bysides from the club to the video game
Playin' Mortal Kombat, tryin' to arrest the thing
To the snack bar, munch, get my drink and change
Rested up, now I'm back on my wheels again
Straight bouncin'

[Imajin]
Baby D is bringin' out the fine young breeds
Parties jumpin, V.I.P.
We off the heez (we off the heez)
Roller skate is one in front and one be-hind
Everybody, grab your partner, form a line
And get

Bounce, rock, skate (yeah), roll
Bounce

[Baby DC]
And you know there's 30 minutes left (*sigh*)
I'm on my second wind and I done caught my breath
I'm on to the DJ's booth to request a song
Baby D's on the rise, now I'm up and gone
As I look to my side, I see my Daddy
So smooth, on the wheels like a caddy
With his Afro, lit it in diamonds is butch
And then I, switchin' lanes at a fast pace
Losin' all the slow rollers up on my way
So I can find that girl and all her friends
So we can hook next week and come do it again
Out here gettin' excite, the GA way
But I learned how to skate in the Golden State
Straight rollin'
So everybody keep bouncin'
So everybody keep bouncin'
So everybody keep bouncin'

[Imajin]
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
Bounce (yes, you're bouncin'), rock, skate (you wanta skate, yeah)
Roll, (yes you do)

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
