Y a les arnaqueurs
Ils sont là rue saint Rome
Tu sais les revendeurs
De la fripe nippone

Et les Taverniti, les Naf Naf et l'arôme
Des vendeuses aux aguets
Les bas sur le pallier
Prêtes à dévaliser

Prêtes à tout pour fourguer
La marchandise au rabais
C'est la rue interdite au petit portefeuille
Si t'es pas bien fringué, t'es triqué à l'accueil

Les mêmes mon cher Claude
Sont désormais en deuil
Elles te flinguent au néon
Les vendeuses en jupon

Si t'entres t'es marron
Et cali cali, cali cali, cali cali
Caleçon

Y a tous ceux qui croient
Qu'ici la cuisine est un rite
Le Zebda catapulte, catapulte
Y a pas de cassoulet non pas
Dans toutes les marmites

Non s'il vous plaît pas d'insultes
Mais des milliers de restos
Sont remplacés aussitôt
Par des milliers de Mac Do

Moi, dans mon quartier
Dans ma cité c'est épicé
Et moi j'aime ça je butine
Mes racines sont latines

Et de bien au delà
J'ai dans l'idée
Qu'on peut aimer
Et la violette et l'odeur du
Tajine au naseau

Même l'espoir
Qu'on peut avoir
L'accent du canal sans
Porter les même drapeaux

Toulouse, c'est la ville rose
Toulouse, de plus en plus rose
Toulouse, c'est la ville toz
Toulouse on t'explose

Y a la rue qui douille con
La rue des magouilles con
La rue qui te dépouille con
C'est la rue des fastes

La rue qui te démasque
Et là tu casques, tu casques
Y avait le Scalp et son action
Sanitaire et sociale

Les réfugiés anarco-espagnols assimilés
Il reste les heureux bosseurs de l'aérospatiale
Le dimanche ils sont cleans
Le matin un jogging
L'après midi en jeans

On déjeune, on disserte sur la démocratie
En Chine
Le Zebda vous confirme qu'ici
Y a moins de briques rouges et la Garonne a tari

Et quand il pleut, "Il pleut"
Le ciel bascule dans le gris
J'efface les ragots
Des monsieurs, Météo
De Cabrol à Gillot

Si j'étais paysan, moi je leur aurait fait la peau
Nous qui vivons de Raï de Rock et de Musette
A la périphérie des succès cathodiques
On assume le peuple qui vient faire sa fête

Sur des hymnes romantiques
Ils tortillent du slip
Ça manque de pratique
Ils font qu'on leur explique

Toulouse, c'est la ville rose
Toulouse, de plus en plus rose
Toulouse, c'est la ville Toz!
Toulouse on t'explose

Ne pensons pas qu'à Toulouse
Toutes les villes ont leur loose
Ne pensons pas qu'à la région PACA
Qui a ses 'Yaka' et pourquoi pas
Les cités

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental 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.
