I want to jump but I'm afraid I'll fall
I want to holler but the jones' too small
Young man really got the hold to it too
I got the Rockin' Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu

Want some lovin', baby, that ain't all
I want to kiss her but the girl's too tall
Young man really got a hold on it too
I got the Rockin' Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu

I want to scream, I want you all to know
I would be runnin' but my feets are too slow
Young man really got a hold on it too
I got the Rockin' Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu

Baby callin' me now hurry home
I know she's leavin' 'cause I'm takin' too long
Young man really got a hold on it too
I got the rockin' pneumonia and Joe Perry too, oh

Want some lovin', baby' that ain't all
I want to kiss her but the girl's too tall
Young man really got a hold on it too
I got the Rockin' Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu

I want to scream, I want to scream
Young man really got a hold on it too
I got the Rockin' Pneumonia, what's the matter with you?

    Aerosmith does a lot of covers, which is great. Nobody would play any instrument if it wasn't for someone else. The original is a really cool blues song. It fits Aerosmith's style of both blues and getting with a girl.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

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.
