Yeah it's over,
You can bet in mid-October,
I will still be ranting bout most early may.
Yeah he's a winner
He's a god damned sinner.
While he dines I'm on the wrong side of the day
And I said,
I don't understand why I'm fumbling after
You're the reason
I cannot forget this season
Or the letter when you first referred to eight.
And I said

It's a Calypso, but it's not easy to know.
You walk around with your shoulders down
Frowning.
It's not easy to know

Yeah it's over,
You can bet when mid-October ends,
I'll still be ranting bout most early may.
So yeah, he's a winner,
He's a goddamn sinner,
While he dines I'm in the wrong side of the day
And I said,
I don't understand why I'm fumblin' after
Yeah you're the reason i cannot forget this season.
Or the lesson how an Ape shall not kill Ape
And I said...

It's a Calypso, but it's not easy to know.
you walk around with your shoulders down
Frowning
It's not easy to know

It's just a tango
But it's not easy to choke,
I walk around with my horns down now,
But it's not easy to know

I'm going under
You can trust a man who's a governor,
Ape can't trust man.

You can trust a man with a gun at all,
Ape can't trust man.

It's a Calypso, but it's not easy to know.
you walk around with your shoulders down
Frowning
It's not easy to know

It's just a tango
But it's not easy to choke,
I walk around with my horns down now,
But it's not easy to choke

How could you win?
If you know he's back to blame
Knowing you're right, won't you wait?

    Ape Dos Mil = Man of 2000. That's what some of my friends speculated anyway.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
