The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Can you borrow my car? and then you give us a test
The Mario test? Mario? Marios a fucking psyco
Its 1986
Im in the first grade
Im workin' really hard to get Mario laid
I gotta save the princess so he can the pussy
Believe me, Mario would get that ass so fuck Luigi
Mario really wants to get her in bed
So bad that hes busting up bricks with his head
He just wants sex, so forget the wedding bells
Jumpin on little mushroom men and turtle shells
Droppin' down green pipes and secret passageways
Makin his move to the end where the final castle lays
Eat a magic mushroom, grow a little higher
Eat a white flower and spit balls of fire
All these creatures that attack wont cut Mario slack
Oh shit--Hold on---Ill be right back................
Im gonna beat the game if it takes me all summer
Its kinda hard to get laid if your a plumber
Thats why Im gonna work extra hard for my man
And get him to the end so he can stop using his hands
Mario doesnt wanna get hit-he'll shrink
The princess wont fuck a little kid-I think
So stay firm and attend to your own
Eventually the princess will attend to your bone
¿¿Save the princess quick¿¿Because she wants a dick¿¿And if you let her free¿¿Youll get the pussy¿¿
Bowsers trying to get head right now from the princess
But if its up to me that shit'll stop this instant
Cloud people throwing little spiked animals
Green plants with teeth that attack like cannibles
I heard nobody yet run in the princess's oven
And Mario always says "virgins-I love 'em"
I hate the koopa troopas
So Im gonna run up, and jump on the back of thier shells
Till I get 1-up
Im gonna keep playing and Im never gonna quit
Cuz some kid at school said you can see the princess's tits
I wanna be there before any of my friends do
So I can say I put pussy upon Mario's menu
At the end of each level, I jump to get the flag
And say to myself another castle in the bag
I hope Bowsers ready cuz hes in for a ride
And Marios serious when it comes to homicide
The princess is a freak even though she has class
Mario will take a plunger and put it in her ass
I hate the cannons that shoot at you constantly
And I hate platforms that fall out from below me
Its all worth while to see Mario smile
Next to the princess butt-naked profile
Thats why its my crusade to get Mario laid
Super Mario Brothers--best game ever made......

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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 song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
