Rosie pearl is a big blonde girl
And she sails around like a steamboat!
Dates her Tom in her arms
They shine
For Tom
Here the Tom cat
Where have you been too
Here the Tom cat
Say, where have you been too
I'm so lonely
Been crying, waiting up for you
Ya that hear me
I got your name tom
I got your children
What about the children
Tom cat Tom cat
You old rag, you old rag
Where have you been too?
Johnny cheated Frankie killed him
Johnny cheated so Frankie killed him
Johnny killed him
I don't blame her I would have done it too
Yaa that heaven
You nearly promised
You kissed and swing low
Foot screaming out the window
tom cat Tom cat
You old rag, you old rag
Where have you been too?
You know your never gonna make a moviemaker, Tom
You know your never gonna make a moviemaker, Tom
You know your never gonna make a moviemaker
Always be a city fag - oh Tom, oh Tom
Never gonna make a movie maker Tom
Oh Tom, oh Tom
Never gonna make a movie maker
Never make a movie maker
Never gonna make a movie maker
Always be a city fag

No tom I can't go on Tom

Shady past shady pearl
Sheny past
Rasheen on

I quit lovin' you

Gonna buy my land
I'm going to the country
To kill my lover man
Gonna kill my lover

You know tom you don't care

Run like a chicken from the pan, baby
What'd you say now?
Here that Tom cat
He walks like a Tom cat
He runs like a Tom cat
Goes fishing like a Tom cat
He treats like a Tom cat
He lies
Can I find him
Can I find him
Can I find him
Can I kill him
My lover man (man)

And she sails around like a steamboat!
Dates her Tom in her arms
They shine
For Tom
Here the Tom cat
Where have you been too

Say, where have you been too
I'm so lonely
Been crying, waiting up for you
Ya that hear me

You old rag, you old rag
Where have you been too?
Johnny cheated Frankie killed him

You kissed and swing low
Foot screaming out the window

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Quite the powerful and impressive song.
It is about the singer's husband ("I got your name, Tom, I got your children") cheating on her ("he cheats like a tom cat - He lies"). The music, and lyrics, changes tempo and feeling rather often - she seems to be contemplating her situation.
