I wonder if she could tell I'm hard right now, hm
Yeah, come on, dance for me, baby, ha ha, yeah
Uh-oh, you feel that, alright
Come on, don't stop now
You done did it, come on, uh, yeah, alright, hold on

Baby, when we're grinding (that's right)
I get so excited (mmh)
Ooh, how I like it (ooh)
I try but I can't fight it (yeah)
Oh, your dancing real close (uh-huh)
Plus it's real, real slow
(You know what you're doing, don't you?)
You're making it hard for me (uh)

Oh, the slow song's on you requested
You're dancing like you're naked
Ooh, it's almost like we're sexing (oh yeah)
Yeah, boo, I like it
No, I can't deny it
But I know you can tell

On you

Boo, you know I can't help it
You know what I want to do

Baby, when we're grinding (oh yeah)
I get so excited (feels so good)
Ooh, how I like it (so real)
I try but I can't fight it (you)
Oh, your dancing real close (and it's real)
Plus it's real, real slow (you know)
You're making it hard for me

Baby, us dancing so close
Ain't a good idea
'Cause I'ma want you now and here
The way that you shake it on me
Makes me want you so bad sexually
Oh, girl

Step back, you're dancing kinda close (ohh)
I feel a little poke coming through
On you

Now, girl, I know you felt it
Boo, you know I can't help it
You know what I want to do, oh, yes

Baby, when we're grinding
I get so excited (ooh-wee)
Ooh, how I like it

Ooh, how I like it (you're making me want you)
I try but I can't fight it
Oh, your dancing real close (oh, the way you groove)
Plus it's real, real slow
(I like those things you do)
You're making it hard for me
(But you're a little too close)

Baby, when we're grinding (yeah)
I get so excited
Ooh, how I like it
I try but I can't fight it
Oh, your dancing real close
Plus it's real, real slow
You're making it hard for me

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
