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.
Oh oh

Lady-man-ladies
Oh you sexy hermaphrodite lady-man-ladies
With your sexy lady bits
And your sexy man bits too
Even you must be in to you
All the ladies in the world
I wanna' get next to you
Show you some gratitude
By makin' love to you it's the least we can do
If every soldier in the world
Put down his weapon and picked up a woman
What a peaceful world this world would be
Redheads not warheads
Blondes not bombs
We're talkin' about brunettes not fighter jets
Oh oh it's got to be Sweet 16's not M-16's
When will the governments realize it's got to be funky sexy ladies?
I have a vision and all I can see
Is all of you with 'a all of me
In a world of peace and harmony
Where every lady gets a little piece of Brety
I've been to Paris, Wellington and Amsterdam
And a wham-bam, Merci, Danke, thank 'a you ma'm
I don't care if you're ugly or you're skanky or you're small
I just wanna do a little something special for y'all
All the ladies, in the world, you deserve it, Girl
All the old ladies
All the clean ladies
All the ladies, in the world
All the crazy ladies
I just wanna, I just wanna
Just wanna do something special for all the Ladies in the World
Oh yes
Just wanna do somethin' special
Ah
For all the Ladies in the world
Is that possible?

Holiday

@[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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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
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.
You missed at the end where "J" starts to whisper in the background: "All the old ladies All the cleaning ladies All the crazy ladies All the lazy ladies"
Hahah. This song just cracks me up, every time I hear it. I didn't know there was such a thing as amphibian ladies, but apparently I was wrong. I think this guy (these guys) just want some and don't care who it's from.
are you high joynicole? how is this song degrading and disgusting?
LMAO! Looks like joynicole2010 missed the joke. BIG TIME.
I find this song totally hilarious and flattering. There's absolutely nothing degrading or sexist about it. There's nothing wrong with wanting ladies, or sexy ladies for that matter. Once again, feminism rears its ugly head not out of defense for women's right but out of discomfort with sex and the natural desire for it. All human beings want sex, and this is a song about sex. There's nothing perverted about it. Or actually there is, but in a funny and ironic way.
This song is hilarious! The bit about the hermaphrodites is soo funny. And as for the degrading thing, I actually think it is the opposite! I know the song is just a joke, but I still think there is an underlying message that he thinks all women are special and deserve to be treated nicely. He doesn't care if you're 'ugly or skanky or small'. He's not degrading women, he's practically worshipping them! Also to an extent there is the 'make love not war' message.
Sorry I did that as a reply by accident....
LOL, I'm a feminist (and folks, for the record, TRUE feminism =/= misandry) and I actually got a fairly pro-female message, or at least a pro-people message overall. The song is about sex, obviously, and there's nothing degrading or anti-female about it at all. I think everyone needs to stop taking things so seriously. They're celebrating all types of females, what's misogynistic about that? Nothing.
OMG this is aweful!!!! i just heard it on VH1 its so degrading!!! the video if just disgustning! i dont see how any girl (or respectable guy) could like this song
