@[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.
Word to mother, got my nigga Buck 3000 on the boards
Holla back
My nigga Terry, he gon' be the big boy
You know what I'm sayin'?
Ayo, ayo, Jody
Ayy, you can tell somebody to go downstairs to the car and shit
Get that bottle of Veuve out the back of the 'Bach for me, baby
I need to get right before I do this here
Uh-huh
(Why me and you)
Had to meet, talk, fuck and get caught up?
(What we been through)
It's enough to get any man caught up
(I'm feelin' you)
And I'm feelin' we should both be free
(If we were through)
Just imagine what life be without me
Mami, I put my best foot forward, though it's kinda awkward
'Cause I'm pigeon-toed and bow-legged
But you ain't too proud to beg
First time we got alone, you gave me some head
And been callin' me ever since to do it again
When we met you was a seven, just creepin' to ten
And now your my lucky quarter
The days get shorter, nights get longer
You know when the weather is cold feelin's grow stronger
What a performer, the pussy feel like walkin' pneumonia
Got me snifflin' and sneezin', coughin' and achin' and shit
And I'm startin' to think I'm fallin' in love with this bitch
I'm havin' dreams about her jeans and how they fit
In that Erving Geoffrey baby tee
She's wearin' my name already, so you know she's fuckin' me
I'm a G like that, but for you I fell backwards
The only question I ask myself is-
Shit
(Why me and you)
Had to meet, talk, fuck and get caught up?
(What we been through)
It's enough to get any man caught up
(I'm feelin' you)
And I'm feelin' we should both be free
(If we were through)
Just imagine what life be without me
Why me? Better yet why you and I?
Why I always pick the ones not in they right mind and crazy?
Singin' "Dangerously In Love"
This a dangerous broad I'm fuckin'
Like Al, it's the "Scent of a Woman"
That got me playin' hardball like Doc Gooden
Excuse my intrudin', I don't mean to be rude
But our situation is kinda amusin'
'Cause we both like each other, but scared of each other
It's like we more than friends, but less than lovers
And my niggas can't tell us what we been doin' is wrong
And your girls gettin' jealous 'cause we been gettin' along
Hold on, this is how it all begins
You call your friends, I'll call my friends, we'll all be friends
And hang out at the mansion in the Hamptons on weekends
Then it all ends, and the question is
(Why me and you)
Had to meet, talk, fuck and get caught up?
(What we been through)
It's enough to get any man caught up
(I'm feelin' you)
And I'm feelin' we should both be free
(If we were through)
Just imagine what life be without me
Have you even been touched like I touch ya?
Been held like I hold ya?
Been loved like I love ya?
Be real, be real
Have you ever been seen like I see you?
Been heard how I hear you?
Been felt how I feel you?
Be real, be real
Girl, you're my sunshine
But sometimes it gets a little cloudy don't it?
Them sunny days, I see the sunrise, and wish that it could hit ya
Face, it'd be great to get up every mornin'
To eggs and steak, but you can't relate
So we separated on good terms, no one's concerned
About who ya been fuckin', and who ya fucked last
But when I see you, still the question I ask is
(Why me and you)
Had to meet, talk, fuck and get caught up?
(What we been through)
It's enough to get any man caught up
(I'm feelin' you)
And I'm feelin' we should both be free
(If we were through)
Just imagine what life be without me
(Why me and you)
Had to meet, talk, fuck and get caught up?

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.
