Bye bye baby, bye bye
That was all she wrote

I got home late on a Saturday night
And I knew right away something wasn't right
I knew she was gone

She took all I had but left a hole in my heart
Should've known it'd go bad right from the start
What did I do wrong?

I can't understand how she could leave me this way
With nothing to say
Then I found the note on the door
It said goodbye and she don't want me no more

Bye bye baby, bye bye, she said in her letter
And that was all she wrote
Guess this is goodbye, guess this is forever
And that was all she wrote

I called on the phone but she wasn't there
Should've know all along that she just didn't care
Why did she have to go? Oh no

Now I look at her picture
And I wonder why she left me this way
Why did she say goodbye? I guess I'll never know, oh

Still, I can't understand how she could leave me this way
With nothing to say
I remember the note on the door
It said goodbye and she don't want me no more

Bye bye baby, bye bye, she said in her letter
And that was all she wrote
Guess this is goodbye, guess this is forever
And that was all she wrote

Bye bye baby, bye bye, she said in her letter
And that was all she wrote
Guess this is goodbye, guess this is forever
And that was all she wrote

Baby, bye bye, she said in her letter
And that was all she wrote
Guess this is goodbye, guess this is forever
And that was all she wrote

All she wrote (baby, bye bye)
All she wrote (baby, bye bye)
All she wrote (she said in her letter)
Bye baby, bye bye

Zombie
Cranberries, The
"Zombie" is about the ethno-political conflict in Ireland. This is obvious if you know anything of the singer (Dolores O'Riordan)'s Irish heritage and understood the "1916" Easter Rising reference. "Another head hangs lowly Child is slowly taken And the violence caused such silence Who are we mistaken - Another mother's breaking Heart is taking over" Laments the Warrington bomb attacks in which two children were fatally injured on March 23rd, 1993. Twelve year old Tim Parry was taken off life support with permission from his mother after five days in the hospital, virtually braindead. "But you see it's not me It's not my family" References how people who are not directly involved with the violence feel about it. They are "zombies" without sympathy who refuse to take action while others suffer.

Blank Space
Taylor Swift
This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her. "I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this. "You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially. With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media. It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame. I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships. It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.

Alma Matters
Morrissey
The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support. "Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
