I'd like to say hello and welcome you
Good day that is my name
Come here and sit down I'm so glad you even really truly came

We can even go and take a walk or something like that or something like that. But first I need to introduce my what and introduce my when.
(let us sing) ah

It's a name I like to call it likes to say its nothing (it's nothing) It lives and breathes and it consists that it insists that it is something
(It's something) It never liked to speak or run or walk or sleep or eat (oh) It even thought that everybody tried to thought to take its seat
(Oh God)

Looking through glass eyes
Give it a few tries
Nothing goes ridding its time
Kill all its bad dreams
Wander by no things
Circles and spirals in mind

But we know that this song is not a bunch of noise that's so white. what's really truly what I say is just about a little sigh (ahhh) So come along I think I'm done I think we're done yes this is done. what's truly that I think about it and it thinks about a ton.
(Let us sing) ahh

Looking through glass eyes
Give it a few tries
Nothing goes ridding its time
Kill all its bad dreams
Wander by no things
Circles and spirals in mind

I thought you knew I knew but why and bye and why and bye and bye. I wanted you to know I thought you knew my why and bye and why.

(everyone loves a potato monkey)
(I stepped on gum over in fern gully)
Let us sing let us sing let us sing let us sing
(a sculpture you say? well...)
(Have you ever seen us sing? its in the middle of the morning skipper.)
(you have two scissors and the computer you can...)
Let us sing let us sing let us sing let us sing
(Birds and seeds and television cardboard houses x-ray vision, many little silly minds and things are getting lost at times, (I don't want to be bit by a spider) telephones and silly things periods of lots of question marks)

    Yes, the potato monkey reference is indeed correct. =) (And then it says, "I stepped in gum, I stepped in gum, ohoho!" and "A sculptor you say, well..." and "...---two scissors and a computer".)

    I really want someone to post the full meaning of this song.

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
