Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

I woke this morning to the sound of Kelly Clarkson
It was like music to my ears just like Dolly Parton, yeah
I'm a tween in the big city
A big city alive with teenagers and I
Am so sick of people who put me down
Cuz I'm from ages 10-12

I wish they wouldn't make fun of me
Every time I walk outside
I wish they wouldn't make so much fun of me yeah
Yamaha knows all my pride and yeah

I'll never be able to shave
I'm so jealous of those people who have armpit hair
And a unibrow
My voice doesn't even crack
No even one little bit,
Not even a little, yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Yeah, yeah yeah

I'm a tween, so obscene
They're so mean, those teens
Especially that Ian McAfee
He makes me wanna kill myself, kill myself with a BB-gun

Did I mention I'm emo?
I'm emo, just talking bought emo
Emo, emo
I wear my chucks, I wear my chucks
I wear my chucks, I wear my chucks
I wear my chucks everywhere I go
I wear my chucks, cuz I'm a tween, yeah

    This song is about annoying tweens in the eyes of valiant teenage spokesperson, Ian McAfee. He mentions himself in the prose, and voices his satrical disgust for young children in this ode to those below puberty. Classic elements of wit and humor make this an exceptionally brilliant recording worthy of praise.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
