picked me up around a quarter to nine,
I was a little shocked that he was right on time.
He was really well mannered as he opened my door,
he seemed like the man I was looking for.
He took me to a fancy restaurant,
and told me to order anything I want.
I went to the bathroom and called a couple of friends,
and said: “Oh my god he's such a gentleman”
He want to have a good time,
ass I was drinking his wine.
And then I started to feel really sleepy,
and he had this creepy look in his eyes.

[chorus] 2x
So don't touch me while I'm sleeping babe,
I just wake up and break your neck.
It won't be worth the costs you made,
cause this will be the date you never forget.

I woke up in the morning about half past eight,
and I couldn't remember what happened to my date.
My stomach was boozy and it didn't feel right,
I couldn't recall a single thing from last night.
My best friend Suzie called me on the phone,
and said: “Girl you really had it going on”.
If you could imagine the fucking look on my face,
When I finally realized I was a victim of date rape.
I went straight to his work and shoved his face to the wall,
”I hope you had a good time mother fucker, now it's time to say goodbye to your balls”.

[chorus] 2x
So don't touch me while I'm sleeping babe,
I just wake up and break your neck.
It won't be worth the costs you made,
cause this will be the date you never forget.

The moral of the story, to make myself clear,
Is that all you rapist assholes better run with fear.
I would think twice before your next date,
Cause you'll just end up someone's bitch in cellblock eight.

[chorus] 2x
So don't touch me while I'm sleeping babe,
I just wake up and break your neck.
It won't be worth the costs you made,
cause this will be the date you never forget

    It's about rape, or to be specific date rape.

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.

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.

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.
