La otra noche fui de fiesta en casa e' Julia
Se encontraba ya reunida la familia
Mari Pepa, Felícitas, Luz y Otilia
Y Camila que alegraba la tertulia

Mientras Lupe daba al niño su mamila
Doña Cleta pidió una botella a Celia
Nos formó a los de confianza dos en fila
Y brindamos con charanda de Morelia

Después Amalia puso la vitrola
Y le tupimos a la danza ahí hechos bola
Había un cadete que celaba a Chelo
Mas la canija con Gaspar se daba vuelo

Después nos dieron sangúichitos de jalea
A unos el ponche y a los tristes coca-cola
Como la gata pa' servir ni se menea
Yo me llevé hasta la cocina mi charola

Ahí me encontré con los amiguitos de Ofelia
Que a contrabando habían pasado su tequila
Nos aventamos unas copas tras la pila
Y por poquito, ya mero, nos cae Amelia

Después pidieron que cantara Lola
Y soportamos Ya te doy la despedida
Después tía Cleta, tocó la pianola
Pa' que no hablara le dimos buena aplaudida

Yo me hice fuerte y les canté La carta a Eufemia
Que me hecho un gallo y un changuito me vacila
Que me le arranco pero me detuvo Ugenia
Si no, en el limbo ya estuviera haciendo fila

Pero ya estaba digerida la jalea
Pos la mujer del general me hacía la bola
Fue con el chisme la metiche de Carola
Y vino el viejohy que comienza la pelea

Se armó el relajo, sacó la pistola
Yo, precavido, me escondí tras la pianola
Llegó la julia, pos llamó la Lola
Y pa' la cárcel nos llevaron hechos bola

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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."

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
