Adam Hussein - Bring me a cup of tea and an ounce of Columbian homegrown
hahaah you beggar

I've got a number one fan who loves to smoke a nine-bar
It ain't Bob Marley clarts, it's my fucking grandma
I seen her in fights, protecting the family name
Sparring clarts out 'cos she's the original Hussein

One time the police come knocking, at our door
She hid the fucking pills 'cos she knows the fucking score
The pigs started shouting, they couldn't find the blow
So my Nan chucks the pricks out the fucking window
You see, that's the problem when you smokes too much draw
You forget things like, er we live on the fifteenth floor
They landed in a mess, fuck me that must be sore
My Nan's hard as fuck and she's only eighty-four

Adam hussein, Adam Hussein
Adam Hussein

Why were these pigs here making me irate?
I thought back and tried to calculate
That's right mate
Last week she ran from St Caddicks and they haven't seen her since
How can you miss a trackie and a fucking blue rinse
But she had to fucking leave 'cos she was causing uproar
'cos they caught her banging out shit, loads of fucking draw

She bought more whizz than she'd ever fucking need,
So she gave it a way - some to the day care
but most to some fucked up bloke in a wheelchair
Wally was is name and he looked after Ed,
When my Nan finished with him he was off his head
He didn't fucking stop so she kept racking them,
Now he's on TV lapping Mika Hakkinen

Y2K + 2 Knows It Leisure Wear

Is this gonna be played in TJs?

Back in the day when the glc formed we had no money so my nan got pawned
I sold her down rizza's for eight pound forty and I bought some draw 'cos I'm fucking naughty
2 Hats smoked the last off this mad shit,
I better get my Nan back or she'll go fucking skitz
She's hussein, so like me she's insane,
She'll fuck you up with her fucking zimmer-frame

Safe Spa! You Knows It! Adam Hussein. Goldie Lookin' Chain. Adam Hussein. Adam Hussein.

I was in town getting fucked and off went my phone, it was my neighbour saying there's a disturbance at home
I walks in the place and to my dismay
My Nan got wrecked and thought it was my birthday
She made the cake with coke instead of flour
And she'd eaten almost half in under a fucking hour
She does it every now and then
Well perhaps twice a week
So I gives her three valiums to put her to sleep

You Knows It! Safe Spa! Goldie Lookin' Chain
Adam Hussein, Adam Hussein
The Goldie Lookin' Chain

    it's 'St. Caddicks', which is a mental hospital just outside of Newport. My mate's been admitted there a few times before!

The Night We Met
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"

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
