The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Blu Cantrell, yo Gucc, I'm goin' in Dun,
This joint is hot! Precision, where you at?
Yo what's the deal baby paw, it's the hottie-hood Kim
You got my mind spinning like my hottie-hood rims
You had a lotta women but they not like me
It's like I been trippin' on that bummbozi
I'm sick with this stick, shift gears with my lips
Put you key in my ignition and put it in 5th
The windows fogged up and it ain't from the spliff
Scratch and sniff and inhale this
I got you seeing doubles and you can't tell
It's the tag team, Lil' Kim and Blu Cantrell
Hip Hop, R&B menage a troid
Two sexy things leaving with engagement rings
I'm getting impatient I need answers
I'm ready to get busy like them Sean Paul dancers
I can be a housewife or the freakiest ho, yo
Just gimme the light and pass the dro
The possibilities are endless for you and me
I know it will be okay
We could have everything
All I know is you are all I want
Baby, believe in us, I've got to have your trust
[Chorus]
Oh, you got me so, if feels as though, I'm racing
I'm so impatient, Oh you got to know, You got me so
I'm chasing, I'm so impatient
Baby, I'm waiting
Baby I'm waiting
I'm so impatient
Unexplainable, something remarkable
Never felt quite like this
Knew it from just one kiss
Let me know
Cause I can't let you go
Not with the love we made
Not looking for the heartache
Baby, I'm waiting
Baby, I'm waiting
I'm so impatient
[Chorus]
Yea, uh, yea
I ain't come to judge, I came to love
In fact I came to cum not makin' love
Girl, you know the rules when you're
dealin' with thugs
And girl, it's me and you,
stop chasin' the crush
I know you want me, don't ya?
Know you need me, don't ya?
Don't lie, see it in your eyes
Thick hips, nice lips, right size
Poppi's big, but fit in between them thighs
And it ain't about the box,
it's 'bout the rocks
And that Malibu view on the mountain top
Just a few reasons why you feelin' the kid
You know, spacious cribs, outrageous trips
Forget about your friends, man,
the hate this shit
If you gave them the power
They would make the switch
Who knew those words I do
would make you rich
But for now, Blu, you's my impatient bitch
[Chorus: x2]

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
