I stroll down the Ave like big Johnny Rogers
I pull tricks for a fix and tonight
I got flows for hos with low self esteem and,
More for those swallow protein.
The kid from the 60s stars in skin flicks and,
Pays the rent inch after inch,
But now I get fly with lyrics
While you guys be on some queer shit.

Check out the way I take a mark for all that he's got and a whole lot more
Cause when your drawers hit your ankles
I untake the shank out my sock and take the bank roll.
Oh shit you just got lit by an illegitimate kid out the orphanage run and shit.

I'm cumin with styles you can't handle smoother
Than the velvet that was hanging from my mantle.
So light a candle and praise yo' Lord
Mickey Avalon's some shit you can afford.

All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans
Girl I'll smash your dreams
All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans girl

I'm a constraint hotty getting saucy at the swap meet
If you want to party
Get my number and call me
From dawn to dusk I bust nuts and shoot Charlie
When you got some money then come and get yo' jollies
A Quarantine in this California dream
All up on the scene dipped in Vaseline
My foster parents told me that I could be
Anything I wanted to so I became me
Mickey Avalon the kid who runs free
Serving sucker mcs and getting paid for my delivery
I freak beats that stain yo silk sheets
Filthy on the mike like Lenny Bruce used to be
They had brooster in the pantry,
Howlin' like a banshee and
Even when I'm wearin' panties I stay manly

All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans
Girl I'll smash your dreams
All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans girl

In the Hollywood hills,
Swallowing pills,
Tipsy off scotch whiskey,
Sniffin' blow through hundred dollar bills.
I toast mimosas from coast to coast,
In penthouse suits
With out any clothes.
I used to stroll to avid holes in my shoes
But now I fly first class and
Bask in sun tanning booths.
Hustling gay dude for Quaalude's,
Out by the pool,
In a baby blue bathing suit.
Waiting for Jesus to bring the juice.
I was paying dues while you was playing in school.
I took the whole scene over with the flow from my lips.
Here's an autographed picture for yo little sis.
My days of turning tricks are behind me,
Unless you got the time to wine and dine me.

All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans
Girl I'll smash your dreams
All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans girl

All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans
Girl I'll smash your dreams
All up on the scene
Dipped in Vaseline
In a mask and jeans girl

    It's pretty straightforward. He's talking about being a fucking badass hustler and doing badass hustler shit. Fucking kickass song.

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,

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
