This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I tried to stay up 'cause you're on your way up
For the weekend, said you wanna see me again
Said you'd be over, still ain't seen your Rover
Looking out my window it's a quarter to ten
It's about that time, I really can't stay hot
Know you wanna kick it and I was with it
But I won't be tripping if you don't show
Or hear you knocking
They got vacancy at the Howard Johnson
You know
Don't try to call me 'cause the ringer's off
Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost
I had a Jones for ya but it seems you lost
I tried to wait for ya but I'm nodding off
I watched Forest Gump and put something on my stomach
I called my cousin, listened to her gossiping mouth
Touched up my makeup, anything to wake up
Trying to take up some time while I'm waiting it out
What's the hold up, thought you would've rolled up
In the driveway before the day gave
Why should I wait, I'm sleepy as hell
And there's no way I can abort this mission
So listen
Don't try to call me 'cause the ringer's off
Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost
I had a Jones for ya but it seems you lost
I tried to wait for ya but I'm nodding off
No hard feelings
Really, I'm already under the cover
Please don't be mad at me
You gotta believe I still love ya
Don't try to call me 'cause the ringer's off
Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost
I had a Jones for ya but it seems you lost
I tried to wait for ya but I'm nodding off
For the weekend, said you wanna see me again
Said you'd be over, still ain't seen your Rover
Looking out my window it's a quarter to ten
It's about that time, I really can't stay hot
Know you wanna kick it and I was with it
But I won't be tripping if you don't show
Or hear you knocking
They got vacancy at the Howard Johnson
You know
Don't try to call me 'cause the ringer's off
Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost
I had a Jones for ya but it seems you lost
I tried to wait for ya but I'm nodding off
I watched Forest Gump and put something on my stomach
I called my cousin, listened to her gossiping mouth
Touched up my makeup, anything to wake up
Trying to take up some time while I'm waiting it out
What's the hold up, thought you would've rolled up
In the driveway before the day gave
Why should I wait, I'm sleepy as hell
And there's no way I can abort this mission
So listen
Don't try to call me 'cause the ringer's off
Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost
I had a Jones for ya but it seems you lost
I tried to wait for ya but I'm nodding off
No hard feelings
Really, I'm already under the cover
Please don't be mad at me
You gotta believe I still love ya
Don't try to call me 'cause the ringer's off
Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost
I had a Jones for ya but it seems you lost
I tried to wait for ya but I'm nodding off

No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
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.
