Barbarella

Scott Weiland

You play the game
I'll masturbate and sing a lullaby
You run the race
I'll pay the miles

You sing the pink love fuzz
And dance the musty queer
I'll stay at home ‘cause I'm the mouse
So high that I can't fly

More deep than space number nine
Can't tell time by telling time
She's so ready I'm so heavy
It's so heavy on me

Can't hold time by holding time
Barbarella
Come and save me from my misery
Can't you see it's a disease

Shoot the bad guys
And I'll gladly sing a tune for you
Lost in space-we could be free
Let go, let God they say

I do believe but not in yours or yours
I just believe it's all the same
Don't know just who I am
Don't know about the lamb

I'm the meat of the feast
Barbarella
Come and save me from my misery
Can't you see it's a disease

Shoot the bad guys
And I'll gladly sing a tune for you
Lost in space-we could be free
Na Na Na Na Na Na

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na
And all the tangerines
They taste like jelly beans

This must be boring by now
Grab a scale and guess the weight of all
The pain I've given with my name
I'm a selfish piece of shit

Barbarella
Come and save me from my misery
Can't you see it's a disease
Shoot the bad guys

And I'll gladly sing a tune for you
Lost in space-we could be free
Barbarella
Come and save me from my misery

Can't you see it's a disease
Shoot the bad guys
And I'll gladly sing a tune for you
We'll watch Lost in Space on my TV

    In honesty, who really cares what its about? Scott is the only one that really knows in the beautiful, heroin injected mind of his.

    I mean, "And all the tangerines, they taste like jellybeans." Where the fuck are you gonna find lyrics as great as that???

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
