I'm the type of guy who's into getting high
On a Friday afternoon
So now you know I'm a regular Joe
I'll tell you what I like to do

I like to make the scene
In my machine
I like to make the scene
I leave 'em in another state
Whenever I accelerate

I live for cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this crazy world
Except for cars and a good, good, good girls

I got a lot of good sittin' under my hood
But it doesn't make me feel alright, alright
The only time I'm feelin' fine
Is when my baby's sittin' tight

I like to get it down
I like to feel the sound
I like to get around
I leave 'em in another state
Whenever I accelerate

I live for cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this [Incomprehensible] world

Baby, you and me will go
Cruisin' everywhere we know
We'll take a trip out to the west
'Cause the coast's the most
Because the surfin's best

I live for cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this [Incomprehensible] world
Except for cars and a good, good, good girls

The fastest car and a movie star
Are my only goals in life
It's the hippest scene, it's the American dream
And for that I'll always fight

I like to get it down
I like to feel the sound
I like to get around

I wanna drive the fastest car
I wanna drive the fastest car
I wanna drive the fastest car
Cars, girls, surfin' beer
Nothin' else matter here

Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this crazy world
Except for cars and

Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this [Incomprehensible] world
Except for cars and good good good goodbye

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”

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.

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.
