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.
Anoche (Aja)
Anoche soñe contigo (Haa)
Soñaba que te besaba (Volvio el duo dinamico)
Y que te acorralaba (W)
Anoche
Anoche soñe contigo (No hay pa nadie)
Soñaba que te besaba (Tu sabes)

Ahora es hey! Ahora es hey!
Y ahora dale sin miedo
Ahora es hey!
Hasta que se rompa el suelo

Ahora es hey! Ahora es hey! (Ey buenas noches a todos)
Llego el guajiro
De la mano de un zafiro
La mami que en mi vida dio un giro (Tu sabes)
Su pelo, Su boca, sus suspiro (Aja)
Si me besa es como si me dieran en el pecho un tiro (Chuplah!)
Le dio un beso muerto de la risa (Aja)
Gata sumisa empeze la otra enchiza
Ella lo sabe todo como la pitonisa (Duro)
Si brinda su pantalón me brinda su camisa (Suelta)

Usted ta fuera de ruta, no se ponga bruta
De que lo quiero de fruta (Duro duro)
Si yo soy el capitan ella es mi recluta (Aja)
Mi gata es astuta no tiene sustituta (Sueltalo)
Toy que le doy un diploma (Aja)
Dulce paloma..
No se haga la boba que a mi me encanta tu aroma (Tu sabe)
Coqueteame mami montate en la tacoma (Sin meido)
Si vienes en una maroma y Toma! Toma! Toma!
Y ahora dale sin miedo (Uh Ha Uh Ha)

Querido colegas del genero (Ahora es hey!)
Queridos amigos

Que ustedes tienen cara de Figueres (Ahora es hey! Ahora es hey!)
Con motor de raton (Jajaja..)

Apodado por el pueblo como..
Los Extraterrestres!

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.
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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
