Hate

Zebrahead

Why's this motherfucker lookin' at me
Is there something more that he wants to see
I've got a gun and the muthafucka's loaded
One more punk and you're dead and bloated, because
All this shit, you disgust me
Can I hate you, cause you're not like me
So, me and my boys beat him down
3 against one boy, whose the clown?
So I never had a fuckin education
Sell a little drugs, to battle inflation
Sleep with a girl that I sometimes pay
Fuck it, better than bein fuckin gay anyways
See one walkin and it makes me mad
This I learned from dear old dad
Hate all the things you don't understand
Hate all the things you don't understand
So I hate all the things I don't understand
Hate all the things I don't understand
Hate all the things I don't understand!
Nurtured with a fist
Shove instead of a kiss
Glare instead of a wink
Listen to me, boy don't fuckin think!
And hate him because he's gay
cause he doesn't live our fuckin way
So I grew up to hate what I am
Hate what I hate
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
Man I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
Man I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
Man I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
Man I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
Man I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man

    i'm shocked no one has commented about this song. i personally love it. i used it in an english essay explaining the stereotypes men have to live up to. i wish they'd play it live but i'm sure it would make non-Zebrahead fans scared to death to see Ali screaming I'm a man over and over.

    I think the song is about, how Ali/ Or someone hates gays, "Shove instead of a kiss" I think means He will punch the guy instead of kissing him, "So I never had a fuckin education Sell a little drugs, to battle inflation Sleep with a girl that I sometimes pay Fuck it, better than bein fuckin gay anyways" Means he would rather do that stuff than be gay.

    "Why's this motherfucker lookin' at me - Why is the gay guy looking? Does he like him? Is there something more that he wants to see - maybe he loves him I've got a gun and the muthafucka's loaded - warning if he likes him DEAD One more punk and you're dead and bloated, because All this shit, you disgust me - Homosexuals make him sick Can I hate you, cause you're not like me" - he is not straight

    Glare instead of a wink - The guy won't wink at him, glaring at him cuz he is gay Listen to me, boy don't fuckin think! - Listen homo, I'm straight And hate him because he's gay cause he doesn't live our fuckin way - He is not straight, so he is unnormal

    I'm a man I'm a man I'm a man I'm a man Man I'm a man - Can't you see I'm a guy homo??

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.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Another Love
Tom Odell
I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.
Album art
Somewhere Only We Know
Keane
Per the FAQ on Keane's website, Keane's drummer Richard Hughes, stated the following: "We've been asked whether "Somewhere Only We Know" is about a specific place, and Tim has been saying that, for him, or us as individuals, it might be about a geographical space, or a feeling; it can mean something individual to each person, and they can interpret it to a memory of theirs... It's perhaps more of a theme rather than a specific message... Feelings that may be universal, without necessarily being totally specific to us, or a place, or a time..." With the nostalgic sentiment and the overall tone of the song, I think Keane is attempting to express a Portuguese term known as 'saudade', which does not have a direct English translation but roughly means "that which we remember because it is gone."
