( rossi / bown )

I saw this picture in a magazine
With it's gold plated grovers
Such a clean machine
So I, I did my home work
And I worked like hell
As the brown eyed handsome man said
You never can tell

I got that blues and rhythm
Good enough to eat
Sound and vision
Hit me with the backbeat

blues and rhythm
Good enough to eat
Sound and vision
Hit me with the backbeat
Blues and rhythm
Something for my soul
My decision
Give me rock and give me roll

I started gigging in my early teens
Sewed the red leather patches
On my filthy jeans
Got my first fender tele
Got my marshall stack
Big head knock 'em dead
I know where it's at

I got that blues and rhythm
Good enough to eat
Sound and vision
Hit me with the backbeat
Blues and rhythm
Something for my soul
My decision
Give me rock and give me roll

don't anybody listen anymore
I can still hear them banging
On my bedroom door
Is it too late to tell them?
Will they understand?
Calm down, come on round
And listen to the band

we got the blues and rhythm
Good enough to eat
Sound and vision
Hit me with the backbeat
Blues and rhythm
Something for my soul
My decision
Give me rock and give me roll

jailhouse rocker
Make you tap your feet
Classic shocker
Listen to the backbeat

I got that blues and rhythm
I got that blues and rhythm
I got that blues and rhythm
We got that blues and rhythm

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
