Shut up already, damn!
Tell me who in this house know about the quake?
(We do)
I mean really, really
If you know how to rock say 'yeah' (yeah)
If you know how to party say 'oh yeah' (oh yeah)
But if you ain't hip to the rare house quake
Shut up already, damn!

Housequake
Everybody jump up and down
Housequake
There's a brand new groove going round (housequake)

In your funky town (housequake)
And the kick drum is the fault
You gotta rock this mother, say (housequake)
We gotta rock this mother, say (housequake), unh unh

We're gonna show you what to do
You put your foot down on the two
You jump up on the one
Now you're having fun, huh
You're doing, the housequake
Yeah

Question,
Does anybody know about the quake? (yeah!)
Bullshit!
You can't get off until you make the house shake
Now everybody clap your hands
Come on

Let's jam y'all
Let's jam
Don't wait for your neighbor
Green eggs and ham
Doin' the housequake

There's a brand new groove goin' round
In your city, in your town, housequake
And the kick drum is the fault

Housequake, (housequake), housequake
You gotta rock this mother
(You gotta rock this mother)
Housequake, housequake
You gotta rock this mother down
Come on

Housequake, unh, housequake

Now that you got it, let's do the twist
A little bit harder than they did in '66
A little bit faster than they did in '67
Twist little sister and go to heaven
Come on y'all, we got to jam
Before the police come
A groove this funky is on the run
Hey yeah unh!
Shake your body 'til your neighbors stare at cha!

Quake, quake, quake, quake, quake, awh ooo, quake

Housequake
Everybody, everybody jump up and down
Housequake
There's a brand new (groove) groove that's going round
Housequake
In this city, in this funky town
Housequake
And the saxophone is the fault
Check it out
If you can't rock steady
Shut up already

Damn, you got to get off!
You know what I'm talking about?
On the one y'all say, housequake
Top of your body, let me hear you shout
Say, housequake

My lord, (housequake)
My lord, (housequake)
Bullshit
Louder, say it (housequake) oowoo

Shock-a-lock-a, boom!
What was that? After shock!
Everybody, everybody
You gotta rock, you gotta rock
Come on

We're gonna shake, we're gonna quake
'Cause we got the baddest groove that we could a make
We on then two, y'all
The drummer's gonna tap
We gonna see if we can rock this mother to the max
And that's a fact
Housequake
Come on say it (housequake), woo, come on
You can't follow it
We got the baddest jam in the land
Everybody shut up, listen to the band
Housequake

Shut up already, damn

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
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.
