Check this out
Real quick
I don't know if everybody know us personally as individuals
So what I want to do right know is
Is I want to take this timeout just to introduce everybody
So let me just introduce everybody

I need from the people up top
From the people on the bottom
And the people in the back on both sides
To give it up when I say

(When the music is the soul)
(And the soul is the music)

So what I want to do right now
Is I just want to go back a little bit with y'all
Check this out

Yo, dressed in indigenous garb sittin' abroad
The words that I use to be awed people applaud
Now watch how the brother adapt fill in the gaps perhaps
I play the block until the curb collapse
Now check the method and put the message on record
Promote the effort and change the neighborhood preference
And keep 'em guessing from the old to the adolescent
It's J5 and it ain't no half steppin'

The word play we display
Can only convey the vibe when they DJ
Colonial rep but far from the empecee
Feel sorry for those who by stand innocently
The menace in me divides men's courage in half
I murdered my staff
Demolished every nerd in my path
The verbal giraffe
We tower over new day jive
We do play live
Ask the people who they fly
The crew J5

We ride right into the night
Words that we write
We're calm then a settle your site
Come to the light
The word play we display
Kept us movin from Tokyo to LA
Catch the feelin' as we move on
Follow the groove and steadily soothe
Gotch you all comin' in two
Follow the crew
No mean thing cause we tied like shoe strings
When we sing you hear buzz like bee stings

(Thank you, thank you)

This is a, uh, very historical moment for us as Jurassic 5 man for real man
I feel like, uh you know, we have some serious support out here...

[Chorus]
You know we bring this back 4 you
So you know we bring this back 4 you
So you know we know we know we know we know we
So you know we bring this back 4 you

Yeah, what, yeah
When we play you walk this way
We walk in faith I hope you feelin' great
We came here tonight just to celebrate
Put ya hands up high you know we're rockin' the place
If you came here to hate you came way to late
Jurassic emcees have came to set shit straight
Originality, check the way we originate
Style and communicate check the way we demonstrate

Countdown three two one
Some rappers a speak the real
And I can see through some
I focus my sound
I never sellin' surplus pounds
I'm workin' to smash and drown all you circus clowns
You try to dis and get your rims crushed like ants eggs
From my fate to where my tims touch my pants legs
We indestructible plus we's magnificent kings
Beat over book by overlooking insignificant things
That bullshit that you bring

[Chorus]
You know we bring this back 4 you
So you know we bring this back 4 you
So you know we bring this back 4 you
So you know we bring this back 4 you

Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

Battle Royale
Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

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.
