Sometimes I dream I'm a millionaire
With jewels, champagne, and things to0 fair
A very big apartment that belongs to me
And a nice and sporty car to drive in the city

Which color do you have?
"Red and Blue."
Can you stick ? on the way?
"Up to you."
Does this car drive fast?
"Yes, sir, it's the fastest we've got."

Sometimes I dream I'm a true lover
One look in the eye and then drinks up you sir
Each and every chick falling at my heal
The can of guys bein' civil then come in sick

There you go, have a drink
"It's okay."
Come to my bedroom we'll have a lay
"I have a boyfriend."
So what about a blow job?
"It doesn't sound like a problem.."

Sometimes I dream ballet dancer
That kind of dancer you would remember
I'll do pirouettes, and I shatte
Training by a mad man who'll be totally gay

Sir my back hurts
"Force your legs"
Can I have this ice cream with peanuts?
"Certainly not!"
Will I be the Prima Ballerina?
"Not with that fat body of yours!"

Sometimes I dream I work at the video store
With my feet on the counter all day
watching porn
I hope my boss doesn't walk through the door
My eyes are full of bad
and my mouth full of popcorn.

Oh no! Here he comes..
"What's going on in here?"
I thought that anaconda was about a snake!
"I've been paying you for this!?"
You can't fire me, I quit!
"You can't quit, you're FIRED!!"

Sometimes I dream I'm a fisherman
who capture a white whale, so it will be my friend
We'll sail at sea together
and we'll never part
So wide is my pet so I'll need a bowl

Hey Bart, let's go and free Willy
"Okay, dude!"
Invite some jellyfish and laugh about it
"That sounds good"
How does it feel to have a blow hole?
"Feels like I'm a pretty strange animal!"

Sometimes I dream I sell fireworks
To thousands of patriotic jerks
And as they drive away
I have to smirk
Because I sold them crap that doesn't work.

Hey guys, are you syked for the 4th of July?
(Cheering in agreement)
God bless America, right?
"USA! USA!"
Have fun at your party
(sound of a lighter) "Aw.."
Suckers.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

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.
