There's a little bit of springtime in the back of my mind
Remembers when there was a time when we danced and we laughed
Spent some time drinking wine
And some where in there is a little (?)
Without a doubt that with every cloud, a silver line is worn

And everything is new
And everything is clean
And everything is free
And there were still so many things to see
So many things

So many things left to be
One small drop in the middle of a big sea
Of high and mighty things
Fascination grows larger than life
Your brand new appetite
As though we'd inventived it
And we dance

There's a little but of spring time in the back of mind
Remembers things perhaps as they should have been
Rather than the lies, rather than the cruelty
That sometimes we were guilty of
As everybody knows, we were only young
And really couldn't have known
We were very young

But its nice to know that there's a place to go
There's still so many things left to say

You're a drop in the middle of a big sea
Of high and mighty things
Your facsination grows larger than life
Your brand new appetite
And that spring time in my mind and I'll try to be alive (?)
As though we'd invented it
And we danced

It could be the longest time
And I'll remember it
We don't know what's in store
When we laugh

    This Is Pathetic That I'm The First One to Comment On this. Mush Is The Greatest Lyrical Punk Album, And One Of The Greatest Lyrical Albums Of All Time. This Song Is Absolutely Beautiful. I Think This Song Is About Starting Fresh (For Example, Quitting Drugs Or Something). Also It Seems Like The Lyrics Are Saying That You Can Always Start Over And That He Has Started Over A Number Of Times.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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 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."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
