I can give you what you want
I can make your heart beat, short
I can make you ice cream
We could be a sweet team
Melting in your vice dreams, sport

I can be the source you crave
I can spell what you can't say
Chocolate-flavored love theme
Treat that treats you so mean
Covering your nights and days

let me give you what you'd like
I can make your mouth run dry
Drink me like a liquor
Come on and dip your dipper
Show me what you're here for, guy

I can give you what you want
I can make your back real taut
Fantastic flavored fancies
Sick like Sid and Nancy
Wicked as a joyride jaunt

(what you want)
I can give you what you want
(what you want)
I can give you what you want you want
(Want)
I can give you what you want
(what you want, you want)
What you, what you want now

    A very sexy quicrky song. Using candy and ice cream as an allusion to sex.

    I love the tunes by this band.

    New Young Pony Club gives me what I want, in this case a super-sexy song! This song is witty, and sounds really sexy. I can't wait for their LP.

    I think it's an ironic statement about the sexualization of women in music/media. With an amazing fucking bass line.

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.

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,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
