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.
Eep opp ork ah-ah
That means, "I love you if you clock dollas"
Yes, ain't no stoppin' there
Let's go, let's go if you choppin' broccoli
Let's go
If your sittin' at home talking to him on the phone
And he a clone without no style of his own
You wishin' that you was gone, throwin' back the Patrón?
You ain't wrong because you'd rather be with me in the zone
Let's go
Sorry, your lady has been taken
You can find us up at the M.O. with the flo' shakin'
And I ain't even the one that's bringin' her home the bacon
You the one been talking 'bout kickin' my face in?
Let's go
You can do whateva' you gonna
My rebel persona that got me dressin' red as I wanna, ahead ya', stronger
The problem is you dead as a coma
You sick of me, but I'm right here to put the medicine on ya
Let's go
Got 'em all frightened of the titan
You mice men too light to get fights in with the bison
It's so exciting, my Benz reeled your wife in
I ruin your life when I produce a license
Let's go
Coming through the do', hella fast, never slow
Got the cash, and the pedal to the flo'
Let's go
If you wanna ride, let me know
We can slide on the low, whatcha' standin' there fo'?
Let's go
You can hate 'cause I'm dippin' witcha' mate
Out the gate, let's roll, let's bounce, let's skate
Let's go to the room
Let's go to the lick
Let's go
Your boyfriend ain't talkin' 'bout shit
Let's go
Posted up, squattin' low like a pit
Ya' know this Patrón changed the whole motion of your shit
And I ain't got a desire to proceed without a grip
So we can just do it movin' if it's all on the bitch
Let's go
They likin' the skinny jeans and the kicks
And jewl-e-wels
But I ain't into pleasin' a trick
I'm in the topless Porsches and keys to a six
So sit back and let the engine breathe a lil' bit
Let's go
But I'm highly into hoochie holla harry mode
"Money over beezys" got it from my uncle Larry though
Superstar to many without playin' on your radio
Addicted to vagina when she ain't around venereal
Let's go
Kutt Kutty Calhoun is the scenario
Kansas City to Oakland
Folks them be like there he go
Tell 'em it's Raider game
He soakes it up everywhere he go
And give you a problem for denerio
There you go
Let's go
Coming through the do', hella fast, never slow
Got the cash, and the pedal to the flo'
Let's go
If you wanna ride, let me know
We can slide on the low, whatcha' standin' there fo'?
Let's go
You can hate 'cause I'm dippin' witcha' mate
Out the gate, let's roll, let's bounce, let's skate
Let's go to the room
Let's go to the lick
Let's go
Your boyfriend ain't talkin' 'bout shit
Let's go
Giddy up down, gotta skip town, girl is you ready to roll?
Well shit, let's go. Hit that K.C. M.O. straight from the O'
I got that dro, sip that purp, we call it Bow
I hit that burb, and get that urge to knock down all your doors
Get in this car, I'm a star, you ain't noticed yet?
Look at these shoes, look at these jewels shinin' on my neck
I spit that venom, then I send 'em in then remove her denim
And once I'm in 'em, then I bend 'em, not I can't remember 'em
I stay persistent and consistent when it comes to pimpin'
Your ho gets sentenced from when sin 'tis hit with no repentance
I go the distance when I hit it fuck like I'm demented
Positions switchin' positions shiftin' like I invented
The art of fuckin' suduction we goin' tit for tat
And when she suckin' I'm bustin' I'm tryin to hit her tat
They say her dude name, but really he's too lame
Fabby and Tech N9ne you know that we are too strange
Let's go
Coming through the do', hella fast, never slow
Got the cash, and the pedal to the flo'
Let's go
If you wanna ride, let me know
We can slide on the low, whatcha' standin' there fo'?
Let's go
You can hate 'cause I'm dippin' witcha' mate
Out the gate, let's roll, let's bounce, let's skate
Let's go to the room
Let's go to the lick
Let's go

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
No Surprises

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.
