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.
Get the fuck out the way, cause here they come
Them hoes shakin' that ass
Get the fuck out the way, cause here they come
Them hoes shakin' that ass
[Chorus]
Bounce that ass hoe
Bounce, bounce, bounce that ass hoe
Bounce, bounce, bounce that ass hoe
Bounce, bounce, bounce that ass hoe
Now that drop that shit
Drop, drop, drop that shit
Drop, drop, drop that shit
Drop, drop, drop that shit
Drop that shit
Get yo ass to the floor and shake ya rump [Repeat: x3]
Shake, shake, shake, shake [Repeat: x3]
Bounce yo ass to the beat while you touch yo feet

Pop that thang and roll with it
[Repeat 3x's]
[Chorus]
[Chyna Whyte]
I'ma shake-shake it like I wanna
Bounce-bounce it on the floor make you see I wanna
Walk-walk it like a dog right there on the corner
Make you say "Who that girl with that Thug Life tatted on her"
See people want it ha that's how we do
Screamin' "Ahh-yah-ya-yah" me and my crew
Live in a zoo
That why I got a strap too
Twurk that ass if I want blow a bag boo
And act a donkey, act a monkey
Get a fifth of gin to see this chick get funky like a junkie
Show what this raw darlin'
6 years of hustlin', see where it brought me
This ghetto monkey, I'm livin' lawless
Livin' life is the hardest
Tryin' to live marvelous in a world full of garbage
I'ma talk it
If you don't want it, don't start it
Cause I'ma put it down the way you want it
Nigga
[Chorus]
Get the fuck out the way, cause here they come
Them hoes shakin' that ass
Get the fuck out the way, cause here they come
Them hoes shakin' that ass
Get the fuck out the way, cause here they come
Them hoes shakin' that ass
Get the fuck out the way, cause here they come
Them hoes shakin' that ass

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
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
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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
this song is about the meaning of life
