Ah shake it one, shake it two
Shake it three and four
'Cause we are starting up a fire on the dance floor
Step aside, day and night they use dynamite
You know Junior Senior's outta sight

Do you think that Junior's dynamite?
Ah, do you think that Senior's dynamite?

Bombs, we got bombs, we got bomb-ba-bombs
Ah, we got bomb-bombs, bombs-a-bombs
Ah, we got bomb-bomb-ba-bomb-ba-bombs
We got a big, bad bag full of dynamite

Alright, three-two-one
Go countdown, son
And we say three-two-one
We've just begun

[Chorus:]
Junior Senior's dynamite, dynamite
Junior Senior's dynamite, dynamite
Junior Senior's dynamite, dynamite
Junior Senior's dynamite, dynamite

Ah TNT, you and me ain't no wannabe
We'll show you the way it's gonna be
Won't be long, it's begun, 'til we drop the bomb
We are playing with fire, and we've just begun

Do you think that Junior's dynamite?
Ah, do you think that Senior's dynamite?

Bombs, we got bombs, we got bombs-a-bombs
Ah, we got bomb, bomb, we got bomb-a-bombs
Ah, we got bomb, bombs, we got bomb-ba-bombs
We got a big, bad bag full of dynamite

Alright, three-two-one
Go countdown, son
And we say three-two-one
We've just begun

Bombs, we got bombs, we got bombs-a-bombs
Ah, we got bomb, bombs, bombs-a-bombs
Havin' fun on the run (???)
With my big, bad bag full of dynamite

Alright, three-two-one
Go countdown, son
And we say three-two-one
We've just begun

[Chorus]

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
