Arab Strap – The Shy Retirer Lyrics 19 years ago
I think this song is talking about taking ecstasy...

"You know I’m always moaning but you jump-start my serotonin." Ecstasy works by releasing serotonin from your brain.

"But when I feel like this, I know it doesn’t matter." When a person is high or rolling they usually don't have a care in the world. Nothing really matters except for being high.

"Here, have you tried the blue ones? i hear he’s got some new ones." Ecstasy come in all sorts of colors including blue and this line is probably talking about a dealer with a fresh batch of blue pills.

"Sleep is not an option tonight." Usually ectasy keeps users awake for a long time.

Broken Social Scene – Canada vs America Lyrics 20 years ago
yeah, those lyrics are way off. the actual lyrics on the EP are:


all my friends in magazines
got addicted to the wood leaves
and they all wrote songs that they believe
little lives and massive dreams

and they all request that you slow down
and they all request that you slow down
you’ve got to turn it around
and make a save

there’s a whore inside their bed
the duvets wish that they were still wet
and all the songs they wrote instead
your ex-lover is not dead

and they all request that you slow down
you’ve got to turn it around
and make a save

all my friends in magazines
got addicted to the wood leaves
and all the songs that you believe
once they stop you can’t repeat
yeah once you stop you can’t repeat
