What's up sweet heart?
What ever you did,
You shot me straight in the heart.
I like it, I like the way you doing it to me doll.
Whatever you doing,
Just keep on shooting (Damn yourself girl),
Just keep on shooting, cause you shot me straight in the heart
Girl shoot me with.

Shoot me with your rifle love,
I heard it go bang, bang
Done stuck me up again (Girl shoot me with).
Shoot me with your rifle love,
I hold me hands up high,
And touch and reach the sky.

Is that your gun you shot me with, you know you are so wrong,
I love the way you put it on me, got me wanting more,
and every time I think about the love you've given me,
You shoot me with your rifle then you're all that I can see.

Now all the other girls I thought I liked never had a gun like you,
The one you shoot makes me feel so happy, am in love with you,
See your rifle has a smoke with a stunner, automatic weapon got baby,
When I knew you were the one that could make me shine,
I knew you had to be mine oh mine,
Shoot me

Shoot me with your rifle love,
I heard it go bang, bang
Done stuck me up again (Girl shoot me with).
Shoot me with your rifle love,
I hold me hands up high,
And touch and reach the sky.

Say what done.

Put your hands in the air, surrender to me,
Better yet lay down on the ground,
Let mama pat you down, I'll spin you all around,
My chambers full of heat.

It was the day you caught my eye.

I can't explain it

This body shot could hurt your eye.

Now let's get to it,
Out of all the girls I thought I knew,
Do ages just for you,
I even tried to keep one on the side,
Your love hit me right in my side.

Shoot me with your rifle love,
I heard it go bang, bang
Done stuck me up again (Girl shoot me with).
Shoot me with your rifle love,
I hold me hands up high,
And touch and reach the sky.

See of all the girls it's hard to find them any place (Gunshot)
There's not other girl in this town that could take your place,
You're the first girl that I could never ever replace (Gunshot)
So come a bless me darling, (baby come' on now)
Cause your love is all I need

(Uh yeah, uh yeah,)See what am saying
(Uh yeah,) I need somebody like you
(Uh, uh, uh yeah)That's all you gotta do
(Uh yeah)Just shoot straight baby, shoot it straight now, (gunshot) that's all am saying

If you don't mind this is what I'd like to say right here.

(Yeah, yeah, yeah) Shoot me with your rifle love,
I heard it go bang, bang
Done stuck me up again (Just shot me girl).
Shoot me with your rifle love,
I hold me hands up high,
And touch and reach the sky.
And touch and reach the sky.

See of all the girls it's hard to find them any place (Gunshot)
There's not other girl in this town that could take your place,
You're the first girl that I could never ever replace (Gunshot)
So come a bless me darling, (baby come' on now)
Cause your love is all I need

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
