I got me an Iowan gal
You should see my Iowan gal

I got me an Iowan gal
You may try and win her but you never will pal
My purebred corn-fed Iowan gal

I got me an Iowan gal
She's pretty as a picture and happy as a clam
Pinch me and tell me how lucky I am
Ya may try to win her but you never will pal
My purebred corn-fed Iowan gal

I got me an Iowan gal
Well you should see my Iowan gal

I got me an Iowan gal
I got me an Iowan gal
She's got a round bottom and I like to spank it
She's quiltin' me up a cashmere blanket
She's pretty as a picture and happy as a clam
Pinch me and tell me how lucky I am
Ya may try to win her but you never will pal
She's my purebred corn-fed Iowan gal

I got me an Iowan gal
Well you should see my Iowan gal

I got me an Iowan gal
I got me an Iowan gal
She's the sweetest thing this side of Des Moines
She cooks up a mightf fine pork loin
So hop on an airplane catch a train pal
And get yourself a corn-fed Iowan gal

You should see my Iowan gal

    One of the only songs I can think of that praises the women of Iowa. I live in Iowa so I should probably find myself one of these Iowan Gals.

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”

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
