'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
Wanna take a peek then open up the curtains

'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
Wanna take a peek?
Then open up the curtains
Baby, it's a freakshow

I wanna know, what do you like?
What would you say, if I said I'd do anything to you you want?
I wanna know, yeah, it's alright
New positions, bet you would like
You'll be screaming, "Stop, yes, please, hon"
Baby, you've got tricks in my head
Craziest chick you've ever had
I heard what you said in your sleep
You wanna wear, you wanna mend
I like it rough, I like it fast
I know that deep down you're a freak

Just say the magic words and I'll come
I'll hypnotize you
You're gonna lose your mind, don't you know?
Baby, it's a freakshow

'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
Wanna take a peek?
Then open up the curtains
Baby, it's a freakshow
'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
'Cause I'm sure you're tired of being certain
Baby, it's a freakshow

Baby, it's a freakshow

When you're alone, what do you dream?
I wanna know your fantasy
Don't matter how wrong it might be
I wanna see, know what I mean
Psycho and fun, sexy and mean
It's just different when you're with me
I want it all, I got a spell
Put it on you and I won't tell
Your secret, 'cause I am your slave
You want it hard, you want it tough
I like it long, never enough
I promise that I won't behave

Just say the magic words and I'll come
I'll hypnotize you
You're gonna lose your mind, don't you know?
Baby, it's a freakshow

'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
Wanna take a peek?
Then open up the curtains
Baby, it's a freakshow
'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
'Cause I'm sure you're tired of being certain
Baby, it's a freakshow

Baby, it's a freakshow

Gimme gimme that
Gimme gimme that, oh
Give you, give you that freaky, freaky, freakshow
Like it like that kitty, kitty cat, oh
Baby, it's a freakshow
Gimme, gimme that
Gimme, gimme that, oh
Give you, give you that freaky, freaky, freakshow
Like it like that kitty, kitty cat, oh
Baby, it's a freakshow

'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
Wanna take a peek?
Then open up the curtains
Baby, it's a freakshow
'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Wanna show you something that you can't ignore
Wanna take a peek?
Then open up the curtains
Baby, it's a freakshow
'Cause I guarantee you've never seen a show like this before
Gonna show you something that you can't ignore
'Cause I'm sure you're tired of being certain
Baby, it's a freakshow
Baby, it's a freakshow

Baby, it's a freakshow

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
