Me adelantó un talón de setecientas
Más gastos, sin contar otras quinientas
En fichas del casino
Mi último tren llegaba con retraso
Así que decidí aceptar el caso
De la rubia platino

Yo era un huele-braguetas sin licencia
Quemado en la secreta por tenencia
Extorsión y líos de faldas
Estaba, como buen ex-policía
A sueldo de un pez gordo, que sabía
Cubrirse las espaldas

Ninguna zorra vale ese dinero
Pensé, mientras dejaba mi sombrero
Nuevo en el guardarropa
Cantaba regular, pero movía
El culo, con un swing, que derretía
El hielo de las copas

Cuando salió, por fin, del reservado
Sentí que las campanas del pasado
Repicaban a duelo
La última vez que oía esa melodía
Me recetaron tres años y un día
Más IVA, en la Modelo

Para jugar al Black Jack y ser un duro
Andar escaso de efectivo
Es igual que pretender envidar
Con un farol, al futuro
No por casualidad
Me temen en los casinos
Me daban diez de los grandes por el caso
De la rubia platino

Los besos que te dan las chicas malas
Salen más caros cuando los regalan
Y huelen a fracaso
Pero el croupier me echaba cartas buenas
Y la rubia platino era morena
Y el caso era un gran caso

En un bistró, del puerto de Marsella
Nos fuimos demorando, entre botella
Y botella de Oporto
Los que pusieron precio a tu cabeza
Le dije exagerando su belleza
Se habían quedado cortos

Puede que me estuviera enamorando
Porque, antes del café, cambié de bando
De hotel y de sombrero
Mi viejo puso un cuarto, con dos camas
Fingiendo que la dama era una dama
Y su hijo un caballero

Ni siquiera, señores del jurado
Padezco, como alega mi abogado
Locura transitoria
Disparé al corazón que yo quería
Con premeditación, alevosía
Y más pena que gloria

Para jugar al Black Jack y ser un duro
Andar escaso de efectivo
Es igual que pretender envidar
Con un farol, al futuro
No por casualidad
Me temen, en los casinos
Diez de los grandes por seguirle, los pasos
A la rubia platino

Para volver a ser alguien, en el ambiente
Necesitaba un par de buenos clientes
Algo para mis vicios y un despacho decente
No dan para comer las putas del barrio chino
Todos los lunes no me encargan el caso
De la rubia platino

Para no ser un cadáver, en el tranvía
Aparte de tener gramática parda
Hay que saber que, las faldas, son una lotería
Con luz de gas brilló mi lámpara de Aladino
Todos los lunes no me encargan el caso
De la rubia platino

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
