All you fear, is fear its self,
Check our your own back yard before you check out someone else

Railroad tracks, in my neighbourhood,
Ain’t no trains around that part that ain’t no good

Wanna know, what’s going down,
The pimp on the corner looks like the sharpest cat in town

Jungle rule, can’t be no fool,
Might get caught by the hook of a crook no time for cool

Look out jay, what you say, what you carrying brother,
I hope you’re clean cause the man is mean, don’t come another further

We all know the answer, will come out in time,
I might even carry some of your load, right along with mine

Thank you ma’am, mister please,
‘Cause I must be Hercules,
I must be Hercules

Like a bird, on the wing,
I just wanna be free enough to do my thing

I can feel the pressure, from every side,
If your not gonna help, don’t hurt, just pass me by

Oh, no

Hercules,
I must be Hercules

Jungle rule, can’t be no fool,
Devil is on the loose, no cool,
Got your feet, in the sand,
Got to be down with the cats that around and still got the face the man

Talk about me if you please but I must be Hercules,
Hercules,
I must be Hercules

Duckin’ rocks, catchin’ stones,
Movin’ how can I survive what’s going on,
Big steely borrow,
Somehow I’ve got to make it to tomorrow

Can’t depend, on no-one else,
Comin’ up the hard way I’ve got to save myself

Must be Hercules,
I must be Hercules,
Talk about me if you please,
I must be Hercules

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
