Early morning, I got Mona Lisa by my side
What's the story behind that devious smile

Do do do do
Do do do do do do
Do do do do

She's an angel, now she's the monkey on my back
She has freedom still she never lets me go now

And my blood starts pumpin' and my heart goes jumpin'
Every time she says, 'I have to go now'
But it really don't matter for worse or for better
She will always be my number one

[Chorus]
She goes
Do do do do
Do do do do do do
Do do do do
My heart goes bang bang boom
Do do do do
When she walks into the room
Do do do do
My heart goes bang bang boom

She supplies me whenever ever I'm in need
Still a thief from the day she stole my heart now

And my blood starts pumpin' and my heart goes jumpin'
Every time she says, 'I have to go now'
But it really don't matter for worse or for better
She will always be my number one

She goes
Do do do do
Do do do do do do
Do do do do
My heart goes bang bang boom
Do do do do
When she walks into the room
Do do do do
My heart goes bang bang boom

When she walks into the room
She makes me touch the sky
A devil in disguise
She makes me touch the sky
An angel in disguise

It makes me cry, yeah, yeah

Mona Lisa by my side
With a devious little smile
She's a devil in disguise
She can make me touch the sky,
Love supplier when I'm in need
Stole my heart and me bleed
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind

When she goes
Do do do do
Do do do do do do
Do do do do
My heart goes bang bang boom
Do do do do
When she walks into the room
Do do do do
My heart goes bang bang boom

Do do do do
Do do do do do do
Do do do do
My heart goes yeah yeah yeah
Do do do do
When she walks into the room
Do do do do
My heart goes bang bang boom

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
