Imagination baby can take you far
Don't be afraid to come off slightly bizarre
It can be scary baby ghostly I am
I'm coming through like I'm the
Lost son of Sam
Lost son of Sam
There's nothing safer baby that is a fact
Turn into something go put on something black
But don't you worry
Cause you'll never get hurt
And everybody feelin'
Sexy say yeah
Sexy say yeah

When you're feeling kind of gorgeous
Call me on the phone and
Get off!
Get off!
When time is kinda precious
I can come undone and
Get off!
Get off!
Yeah

Russian champagne in the back of the car
You can be the bubbles I'll be your Dracula
I've got a million other tricks up my sleeve
Go get you're jacket babe
Get ready to leave
Ready to leave
If you don't wanna go feel free to sit tight
Two talkaholics we can do it all night
But if you're longing for some real human touch
I'm coming over just like
I am too much
I am too much

When you're feeling kind of gorgeous
Call me on the phone and
Get off!
Get off!
When time is kinda precious
I can come undone and
Get off!
Get off!
Yeah

When you're feeling kind of gorgeous
Call me on the phone and
Get off!
Get off!
When time is kinda precious
I can come undone and
Get off!
Get off!
Yeah

When you're feeling kind of gorgeous
Call me on the phone and
Get off!
Get off!
When time is kinda precious
I can come undone and
Get off!
Get off!
Yeah

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
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.

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.

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,

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
