Yeah I was right there - like the "littlewife"
I was everything that you need - always in line
I was living you-loving you-filling your desires
But that was then-this is now-look me in the eyes
Oh oh oh oh - if love could choose sides
Oh oh oh oh - it's taken mine (so)
Get over yourself-goodbye
It must be hard to be you -yeah
Living in your life
I was always the one to cry
Now everything-everything-everything is all right
Get over yourself-know why
Cause without you see i do anything i like
Sometimes i stay out all night
And everything -everything-everything is all right
This just can't be it i kept telling myself
And every magazine said was me was on the shelf
I was givin out giving in giving way my dreams
While you put it in put me down now i found my self esteem and
Oh oh oh oh you won't get me back
Oh oh oh oh think i overact (well)
Chorus
So now you want to talk
Say let's do it just once more for luck
Like old times make up
Better yet just forget better get over yourself
So stay in touch
When you learn a few things about love
Until then wake up
Better yet better get better get over yourself
Get over yourself goodbye
It must be hard to be you yeah
Living in your life
I was always the one to cry
Now everything everything everything is all right
Get over yourself know why
Cause without you see i do anything i like
Sometimes i stay out all night
And everything everything everything is all right

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.
