M.I.A. – Bad Girls Lyrics 10 years ago
M.I.A. isn't a Saudi, she's Sri Lankan Tamil and British, and when she was ten she moved to England. She grew up during times of civil war in Sri Lanka and her father was a political activist in the LTTE (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam). She had a childhood that in sure wasn't pleasant or easy. i think alot of her songs speak out about oppression because she grew up around alot of it during times of war.

Ani DiFranco – You Had Time Lyrics 10 years ago
It sounds like she returning home from touring, tired and being asked questions that she has no solid answers to like "what did you decide"(whats your next move) and "did they love you or what?"(the audience/her fans). She says things like "I don't really remember". Her "fingers are sore" and so is her voice.

Sounds as if she is being greeted with affection from loved ones, but also dreading answering all their questions that are along the lines of 'so what are you gonna do now that your done touring'.

Gwen Stefani – Hollaback Girl Lyrics 10 years ago
This song was written by Gwen Stefani in response to Courtney Love's comment in seventeen magazine. Love says:

"Being famous is just like being in high school. But I'm not interested in being the cheerleader. I'm not interested in being Gwen Stefani. She's the cheerleader, and I'm out in the smoker shed."


To which Stefani responded in NME:

"Y'know someone one time called me a cheerleader, negatively, and I've never been a cheerleader. So I was, like, "OK, fuck you. You want me to be a cheerleader? Well, I will be one then. And I'll rule the whole world, just you watch me."

Björk – Mutual Core Lyrics 10 years ago
I thought your interpretation was spot on although I conceived the line "This eruption undoes stagnation" to be a reference to sexual release. Great interpretation!

Donovan – Wear Your Love Like Heaven Lyrics 10 years ago
Since editing the lyrics on here is not working for me here are the correct lyrics:

Color in sky, prussian blue
Scarlet fleece changes hue
Crimson ball sinks from view
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love)

Lord, kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah, kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven (Wear my love like)
Wear my love like heaven (Wear my love)
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la

Color sky, havana lake
Color sky, rose carmethene
Alizarin crimson
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love)

Lord, kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah, kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven (Wear my love like)
Wear my love like heaven (Wear my love)
La-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la

Cannot believe what I see
All I have wished for will be
All our race proud and free
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (Wear your love)

Lord, kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah, kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven (Wear my love like)
Wear my love like heaven (Wear my love)
