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.
[Chorus]
Can you listen baby
I know that it might sound crazy
Cut, I just wanna cut
And, Yes i gotta lady
But girl you driven me so crazy
Cut, make me wanna cut
Baby girl this the prince of Virginia.
When i say that i'm trying to get in ya.
I ain't trying to be to dramatic, but ya ass is past
The average, oh the way that you movin' ya waist, so fat and a beautiful face.
oh girl i gotta have ya
And don't say no, that ain't the answer.
Put your legs all up in the air.
Twist from the back and pull your hair, oh baby girl let's take it there.
I'll tell you girl i'm so prepared.
Just let me freak ya body, cause you's a freaky shawty.
Let me take a waltz in that big ol' butt, girl I'm trying to get a you know what
[Chorus]
Baby it's the things that you do when you do what you do.
Oh babe,make me wanna cut.
It's the way that you move there is nothing to do
Make me wanna cut,
Mama right here on this floor
I gotta let you know
The way you drop it low
oh girl I'm getting swoll
Just let me take you home
Do what i know is wrong
And once we get along i'm gonna sing this song
Put ya legs all up in the air
Twist from the back and pull your hair, oh baby girl let's take it there.
I tell you girl i'm so prepared.
Just let me freak ya body, cause uz a freaky shawty,
Let me take a waltz in that big ol' butt, girl i'm trying toget a you know what.
[Chorus]
Baby it's the things that you do
When you do what you do
It's the way that you move there is nothing to do
Make me wanna cut
And when i twist it baby
I swear the girls up in this club tonight
It ain't a problem
We don't need any room baby
And what make it special
It just as soft and round`
I gotta let you know
[Chorus]
Can you listen baby
I know that it might sound crazy
Cut, I just wanna cut
And, Yes i gotta lady
But girl you driven me so crazy
Cut, make me wanna cut
Baby girl this the prince of Virginia.
When i say that i'm trying to get in ya.
I ain't trying to be to dramatic, but ya ass is past
The average, oh the way that you movin' ya waist, so fat and a beautiful face.
oh girl i gotta have ya
And don't say no, that ain't the answer.
Put your legs all up in the air.
Twist from the back and pull your hair, oh baby girl let's take it there.
I'll tell you girl i'm so prepared.
Just let me freak ya body, cause you's a freaky shawty.
Let me take a waltz in that big ol' butt, girl I'm trying to get a you know what
[Chorus]
Baby it's the things that you do when you do what you do.
Oh babe,make me wanna cut.
It's the way that you move there is nothing to do

Just let me take you home
Do what i know is wrong
And once we get along i'm gonna sing this song

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.
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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.
