Sitting in the park with a walkman on nodding my neck hard
And pardon me I didn't see you there.
Thank god for the gift of midriff driftin by,
Catch a whiff and get high, on a spliff, yes I…

I'm talking better than dope and I really like dope
And so it must be good, could it get any better?
Shoulda set the sun off with a nice cool breeze,
To ease the sweet smell of sweat run off, so please come off.

You feel me like a breeze blowing, sitting under trees writing,
Liking looking out at the seas and fallen leaves,
And breathing in the change of season, I don't even need a reason
To be boozing when I'm cruising, as long as shit is pleasing.

I love seeing the sun coming into my cave,
And still crave the haze and find so many ways to misbehave.
See the josh did done that, and still caught the sunset
Drunk as fuck screaming “are we having fun yet?”

See the josh did done that,
And still caught the sunset,
Drunk as fuck screaming
“Are we having fun yet?”

Chorus:
Another Day, Another Dollar
Wanna Play? Give me a holler.
Let's get faded on the bottle
And forget about tomorrow
Let's create a song of sorrow
How we always need to borrow
Loot to get loose,
Who gives a fuck about tomorrow?

Verse 2:
Look out on the water and watch the sun setting
You can smell the rum and coke and you can see that some forgetting,
Come the summer ends in smoke soaking up all them rays
It'll end in autumn leaves, smoking trees on rainy days.

The greens of today are the browns of tomorrow
And yesterday's sorrow is the legacy we follow
In the yesteryears, the X amount of beers we quenched our fears with,
Were forgotten like so many friends we went and spilled our tears with.

To me the seas are calling, see I've fallen into love
With ska, dub and the dope dancehall.
It seized me by the collar and it hollered you've been mollycoddled long enough.
Are you man enough? Are you strong enough?

The world is yours but your divorced from it.
So close to the top and you haven't seen the summit.
Been talking and dreaming for so long and ain't done it.
When the prey becomes the predator, the dream becomes the hunted.


Chorus:
Another Day, Another Dollar
Wanna Play? Give me a holler.
Let's get faded on the bottle
And forget about tomorrow
Let's create a song of sorrow
How we always need to borrow
Loot to get loose,
Who gives a fuck about tomorrow?

Verse 3
Man I'm missing sitting kissing, talking shit, and pissing wine.
Getting sunk feeling, remember reeling drunk and drooling time
ON life I'm buzzing nicely, maybe it might be caused
By laws that aren't likely to have teeth, let alone jaws

Each and every leech that has a cause is always preaching
A one-sided thesis that comes from flawed teaching.
Smoking pot to pass the time, what a crock I'm past my prime.
But where's the clock that's telling time, when I'm the rock that time forgot.

Not ready to go steady, not into the petty.
The pity parties and confetti…I been there already.
I can be your man if you'd only understand
That I can't be held down by nothing just yet.

I don't care about the money, shit, I wanna live right too.
But one plus one equals none left for me to like you.
If you want it, you got it, you break it you bought it.
You thought it would be cool to play the fool, you've been spotted.

If you want it, you got it,
You break it you bought it.
You thought it would be cool
Play the fool, you've been spotted.

Chorus:
Another Day, Another Dollar
Wanna Play? Give me a holler.
Let's get faded on the bottle
And forget about tomorrow
Let's create a song of sorrow
How we always need to borrow
Loot to get loose,
Who gives a fuck about tomorrow?

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
