Well me and Bobby Ray was goin down to a pickup joint just outside of town,
You know a metting market, where you pick up chicks
Well knowing Bobby Ray as I do, He'll be goin home alone before the night is through,
He's just too darn picky, he's always wantin to score big!
Well I'm not leavin here alone, I'm gonna compromise, early on,
Yea, I'm goin ugly early tonight,
She may not be a beauty queen but that's alright,
I'm not waitin round for one that looks good in the light,
I'm goin ugly early tonight
So Bobby I says,
Please don't stare, but check them 2 out standin over there,
He says you mean the good lookin blonde and the one with the big zits?
I says, Yea that's right and here's my plan, I'm not goin for miss scandinavian, Her chubby lil friend...well that's my pick
You can drink them cute but not skinny,
You get too picky, you ain't gettin any
So I'm goin ugly early tonight,
She may not be a beauty queen but that's alright,
I'm not waitin round for on who looks good in the light,
I'm goin ugly early tonight.
Then all of a sudden to my surprise, the pretty one was givin me the eye,
And I was fixin to move up from a 2 to a 10!
She said, you know I don't live to far from here,
I'll get my purse and you pay for them beers,
And I was feelin pretty puffed up til she turned to her friend.
I guess she didn't I'd here,
Them hurtful words she whispered in little chubby's ear,
Yea I'm goin ugly early tonight,
His friend is better lookin but I ain't got the time,
I'm not waitin round for one that looks good in the light,
She said I'm goin ugly early tonight.
You know she really hurt my pride but way down deep inside
I'm glad she's goin ugly tonight!

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
