Disculpe el señor
Si le interrumpo, pero en el recibidor
Hay un par de pobres que
Preguntan insistentemente por usted
No piden limosna, no
Ni venden alfombras de lana
Tampoco elefantes de ébano
Son pobres que no tienen nada de nada
No entendí muy bien
Sin nada que vender o nada que perder
Pero por lo que parece
Tiene usted alguna cosa que les pertenece

¿quiere que les diga que el señor salió?
¿que vuelvan mañana, en horas de visita?
¿o mejor les digo como el señor dice
«santa rita, rita, rita
Lo que se da, no se quita»?

Disculpe el señor
Se nos llenó de pobres el recibidor
Y no paran de llegar
Desde la retaguardia, por tierra y por mar
Y como el señor dice que salió
Y tratándose de una urgencia
Me han pedido que les indique yo
Por dónde se va a la despensa
Y que dios, se lo pagará
¿me da las llaves o los echo? usted verá
Que mientras estamos hablando
Llegan más y más pobres y siguen llegando

¿quiere usted que llame a un guardia y que revise
Si tienen en regla sus papeles de pobre?
¿o mejor les digo como el señor dice
«bien me quieres, bien te quiero
No me toques el dinero»?

Disculpe el señor
Pero este asunto va de mal en peor
Vienen a millones y
Curiosamente, vienen todos hacia aquí
Traté de contenerles pero ya ve
Han dado con su paradero
Estos son los pobres de los que le hablé
Le dejo con los caballeros
Y entiéndase usted
Si no manda otra cosa, me retiraré
Y si me necesita, llame
Que dios le inspire o que dios le ampare
Que esos no se han enterado
Que carlos marx está muerto y enterrado

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.

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.
