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.
(Intro: Lil Dicky)
Whoa... so hard
Jews is never supposed to go H.A.M., but fuck it
(Verse 1: Lil Dicky)
Okay dat boy D-I-C-K-Y ballin'
I been spittin' hella writtens 'cause I'm finna get my wallet good
Bitches know I holla good
Graduated college wit a bag of fucking honors but instead of making dollars
I been acting like a kid
Rappin' bout my fuckin' dick
And what started as a joke became the hottest fuckin' shit
Killin' bitches, (Michael Vick), and women you know what this is
Semi-colons in my texts, my instant message game is sick (HO!)
Fuck that shit, when I rub that bitch
When I be up in the club I gotta tuck that dick
When I bring a chicken back, and then I fuck that bitch
I'mma cum quick, I ain't playin' witcha
Ay you know, I'm spittin' crack up on the track
I'm not attacking all you blacks
Who try to rap, but I'm just saying that
(Hook: Lil Dicky)
I'm coming for these muthafuckin' brothas making money
Errbody love the funny little buddy making jams now
Ladies get them pants down
Sorry to my god and my synagogue and my mom because this kike is going H.A.M. now
(Verse 2: Lil Dicky)
I ain't on that kosher shit
Facebook I be poking chicks
Came up in the 90's yeah I'm on some Hocus Pocus shit
I don't push a lotus, I'm drivin' a fuckin' Focus
But notice that I got the coldest and dopest designer sodas
I'm an Izze sippin', bitty-kissin' muthafuckin' G
The way I cum on chickens, call Lil' Dicky mozzarella cheese
I'm getting pussy, getting bread, I get a lot of fucking yeast
And I been Dustin Diamonds off, they bout to call Lil' Dicky Screech (Whoa!)
Tampon shit, 'cause I rap for the flow
And I get a lotta bitches when I mac like a pro
Gotta mac, it's a pro, never nap, but I doze
I'm a little bit of black, like I shat in the snow
And I know y'all bitches feelin' that
Ain't as nobody real as that
Rappin' like Jamaica's population, I been killin' tracks
(Like, in the Olympic Games?! You ain't get it?!)
(Verse 3: Lil Dicky)
See them bitches over there?
Please don't fucking over-stare
That's who I be stroking, young and smoking like they over DARE
Okay I was joking, I don't know dem I should grow a pair
But I am not the most efficient closer when I'm sober, scared
So I'm drinkin', fuck you thinkin'?
Middle Day that's word to Lincoln
My left foot is always stinkin'
I ball good so I ain't blinkin'
Baby whatcha know about a muthafuckin' dog
Fuckin' cats up the ass metaphorically... uh, paws
(I got that pause in on time, right?)
Whoa... so hard
Jews is never supposed to go H.A.M., but fuck it
(Verse 1: Lil Dicky)

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
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."

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
