Well, I want somebody
To tell me what's wrong with me
I want somebody
To tell me what's wrong with me

No I ain't in trouble
I'm in so much misery

Now, Fannie Mae
(Fannie Mae)
Baby won't you please come home
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

Fannie Mae
(Fannie Mae)
Baby won't you please come home
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

Now, I aint been myself
Girl, since you've been gone
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

I can hear your name a ringing
On down the line
(Fannie Mae, Fannie Mae)

Yeah, I can hear your name ringing
On down the line
(Fannie Mae, Fannie Mae)

I wanna know do you love me
Or am I just wasting my time

Now, Fannie Mae
(Fannie Mae)
Baby won't you please come home
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

Fannie Mae
Baby won't you please come home
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

Girl I ain't been myself
Honey, since you've been gone
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

*sax solo

*harp solo

I'm crying oh
Oh, woe, woe, po' me
Crying oh
Oh, oh, oh, po' me

No I ain't in trouble
I'm in so much misery

Fannie Mae
(Fannie Mae)
Baby won't you please come home
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

Fannie Mae
Baby won't you please come home
(Fannie Mae, my Fannie Mae)

Now, I ain't been myself
Girl since you've been gone

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
