Well, here we go again, get up
A little something for your ear hole, get up
Tearing a part of my soul again, get up
Disturbed in the house, we're droppin' plates

You said it couldn't be done
Told me that it's the kind of battle that just couldn't be won, you know
"You're too sick, too hard, too fucked in the head
You'll never make it, no, not in this lifetime"

Well, guess again, my friend, don't act surprised
We got the bass, drum, kick that will blow out your eyes, huh
'Cause when you hear this shit, you'll get to steppin'
Gonna fight the war and use my music as a weapon

You know I'm talkin' 'bout (recognition)
You know I'm talkin' 'bout (vindication)

Another goddamn slap in the face
Don't wanna give us a place, are you afraid?
Well, fear this, 'cause I'm a-breakin' through the walls of your nightmare
Wake up, time to die

The way I'm livin', there is no compromising it
Better get ready for another surprise, and it
May leave a mark, because I'm a-coming in fast
Planting thoughts in your mind and a-droppin' plates on your ass

Well, here I come, I'm droppin' plates on your ass, bitch
You never mind and you don't need this
Said, here I come, I'm droppin' plates on your ass, bitch
You never mind and you don't need

Well, on your mark, here we go again (hey, yeah, yeah)
Well, never mind, 'cause you're not number one (oh, yeah, yeah)
You're too hard and from the other side (hey, yeah, yeah)
I think it's time to bring it home again (right to me)

Well, on your mark, here we go again (hey, yeah, yeah)
Well, never mind, 'cause you're not number one (oh, yeah, yeah)
You're too hard and from the other side (hey, yeah, yeah)
I think it's time to bring it home again (right to me)

You know I'm talkin' 'bout (recognition)
You know I'm talkin' 'bout (vindication)

Here I come, I'm droppin' plates on your ass
Well, here I come, I'm droppin' plates on your ass
Said, here I come, I'm droppin' plates on your ass
Now, here I come, I'm droppin' plates on your ass

Plates on your ass, bitch, plates on your ass
Well, here I come, I'm droppin' plates, I'm droppin' plates
Plates on your ass, bitch, plates on your ass
Here I come, I'm droppin' plates, and I'm droppin' plates, and it

Well, on your mark now, here we go again, I'm droppin' plates
I use my music, my weapon, I'm droppin' plates
Break through the walls of your nightmare, I'm droppin' plates
Well, here we go, we're droppin' plates

    Whenever I listen to this song I think of my friends Grandma. She has these plates in the kitchen that are hanging on the wall and if you ever touch them, boy are you in for it. So I think this song is like dropping those damn plates to cause disturbance(no pun intended) on purpose. Screw the rules and just let me live mo' fo'.

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.

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.
