My lady gives birth today,
I run to her room right away,
She smiles with glee then hands her to me,
I look at my newborn and say

Damn that's an ugly baby!
Damn that's an ugly-ass baby!
I'm feeling quite concerned,
My semen must have turned,
Damn that's an ugly baby

This is just what I feared,
Her head is mishappen and weird,
She's skinny like a twig,
At least her nuts are big,
But her hair color doesn't match her beard

Damn that's an ugly baby!
Goddamn that's an ugly-ass baby!
I give the doc a smack and say,
Can't you stuff her back in,
Damn that's an ugly baby

And when she smiles I find,
Shea mcgowan comes to mind,
It makes me want to cry,
When I look into her good eye,
I always wanted kids,
Is it wrong to hope for SIDS?

Then the doctor calls me in,
Mr. lynch, she has a twin...

Damn that's a good lookin baby!
One for two on the good lookin babies,
I almost start to weep,
Now this one we can keep,
Cause that was an ugly ass baby

Damn that's an ugly baby,
Damn that's an ugly ass baby
Damn that's an ugly baby
Damn that's an ugly baby

(I said damn damn damn! I wanna throw that shit in the dumpster)

Well she's got one good tooth and one ear and one eye,
And thank god just one nose but its on her left thigh,
The thought of changing her diaper each day,
Or powdering her ass with that tail in the way,
I think I could get a good price on ebay

I don't want any ugly baby,
I said damn that's an ugly baby,
Damn that's an ugly baby

    It's Shane MacGowan.. one of my favourite artists but he has horrible teeth.

    It was weird that when I saw this on the DVD I laughed hysterically at that line and noticed no one in the crowd got it.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
