Pardon, darling, if I alarmed ya
I don't mean to bother you, I just wanna
Get you to pause and slow ya walk so
Maybe we can talk and I can try to charm ya
Just tryin' to find out who you are
I don't mean to come off like a telemarketer
I ain't no hood, no crook, no robber
I just want a part of your heart I can borrow

(Sometimes) and maybe I could call you up (sometimes)
And maybe I can take you out (sometimes)
So let's exchange digits and later arrange visits
Either your place or mine (yeah)
This a different type of commitment (yeah)
I'm talking 'bout a true friendship (yeah)
Someone I can depend on
To be down no matter what
Let me know if you wit' it 'cause, girl

It would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours, and you could be mine
I can't lie, it would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours if you could be mine

Sorry if I come off disrespectful
But my convo is a little bit to sexual
But, damn, it's incredible
Be more flexible
Cause the context of this text is a lil' special
But, but, wait, wait, let me explain
A buddy is a equal beneficial arrangement
A buddy is a buddy that don't be complaining
Wit' his or her buddy and da buddy they came wit'

(Sometimes) and maybe I could call you up (sometimes)
And maybe I can take you out (sometimes)
So let's exchange digits and later arrange visits
Even though it's all night (yeah)
This a different type of commitment (yeah)
I'm talking 'bout a true friendship (yeah)
Someone I can depend on
To be down no matter what
Let me know if you wit' it 'cause, girl

It would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours, and you could be mine
I can't lie, it would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours if you could be mine

Oh, oh, oh, baby
What I'm really tryin' to say is (that)
The definition of a real buddy is (that)
She's that one that you can have fun
And ride shotgun through the city with me
Together there's no limit to what we can do
And once we in it, girl, it's just about me and you
So, baby, what you say?
Don't pass this by
Cause if you decide

It would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours, and you could be mine
I can't lie, it would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours if you could be mine

It would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours, and you could be mine
I can't lie, it would be fly if you were my B-U-D-D-Y
Don't be shy, give it a try
I could be yours if you could be mine

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
