The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Hit me, hit me, hit me, hit me, yo
I'm getting real tired of childish ass niggaz judging a book by its cover
Think a pretty motherfucker won't get fouled mouth and grimey on a nigga
Know what I mean yo
[Louis Logic]
I'm willing and able, to start spilling a fable
But first quench my thirst to keep my syllables stable
I spent the rent on drinking and now they killing my cable
In love with lady liq', still my faithful
Sometimes I need a face full of breast
At times I make hateful threats
And practice distasteful sex
But my thirst for spitting rhymes is two times my unquenchable thirst
For snatching a verse that isn't mine
My first bitin' line of coke, was the dope I spit in this rhyme I wrote
And quoted in my linear notes, my warped mind will find a joke in eulogies
And though hell hurts, I'm so well versed in tom foolery
That I have to practice it, with backwards activist
That manages to hold one of the highest batting averages
We'll run up in your studio with scattered savages
Trample you, sample it, and leave you down in bandages
[Chorus]
*scratching* "Used to be a loud mouth, remember me" - Eminem
Until I found out, and graduated to a human outhouse
Ejected from the rap game for cursing the crowd out
Loud Mouth and I
[Louis Logic]
My ex called me sexist when I called her a bitch
I was drunk though, excuse me if I faultier a bit
Your punk flow wouldn't get you through one show
Cause what you rip you unsown, launching beer bottles from the front row
A mad bandit, pillaging cribs with panhandles
I'll burn your offices and have your promo ad cancelled
Push back your release date, beating street teams in each state
For their free tapes, and escape with a clean slate
I'm Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Suspsion, obnoxious devil throwing peace signs
But I'm guilty like Richard I'm Nixon, sickness infliction
Vicious condition, that causes me to cook in the bathroom and shit in the kitchen
I fir the description, I'm sick, twisted, I'm strange
A kid that's deranged, lobotomized and missing a brain
Sodomized with a liquor bottle and few cool brews
A silly coo-coo with a few screws loose
[Chorus: 2x]
*scratching* "Used to be a loud mouth, remember me" - Eminem
Until I found out, and graduated to a human outhouse
Ejected from the rap game for cursing the crowd out
Loud Mouth and I
[Louis Logic]
I practice peer pressure and promote unsafe sex
On my tour of beer lectures, with one day left
I'm one stray head who corrupts the youth, fuck the truth
I plug drugs as a substitute
I'm a teacher in your district, leading you to mischief
Feeding you linguistics that's featured on my discus
I need to be enlisted in clinics, for exhibiting sickness
And eating cat until the clitoris twitches
Beating rap and leave it in stitches and wounds
The deepest that I get is when my dicks in the wombs
I put my fist to buffoons, and on the rare occasion
When I'm drunk for days in put my lips to balloons
Spaced out like I live on the moon, Randy Kaufman
You're line and some vodka, yeah and it's often
And I'm not just standing sportsmen, a hundred MCs
I'm unfriendly, spitting until my tongues empty
[Chorus: 2x]

No Surprises

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.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
Page

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
