Poundin' on the pavement, soundin' the alarm
Strangulation mama, why you do me harm
Graduation lover, turn me on a dime
Come around and see me when you find the time

I can't be certain, you can't deny
Who can be certain, when these things you hide

Come home...come home
Come home little woman wontcha leave me alone
Come home...come home
Come home now baby keep me off the phone
I don't want your lie-de-lies, don't care what you say, girl
Come home...come home
Come home little woman get your back on the lawn

How you wanna play it--whatcha gotta say
Are you gonna keep me up all night for days
Tell me 'bout your lovers, tell me how ya do
Tell me now baby what's it done to you

I could be bitter, who could deny
You should know better but these things you try

Come home...come home
Come home little woman dontcha leave me alone
Come home...come home
Come home now baby keep me off the phone
I don't want to fight the fight, where you gonna stay the night...
Come home...come home
Come home little woman dontcha leave me alone
Come home...come home
Come home now baby, don't leave me all alone

I could be tempted, who could deny...love over logic runs true every time
Come home...come home
Come home little woman dontcha leave me alone
Come home...come home
Come home now baby, wontcha stay
Come home...come home
Come home little woman dontcha leave me alone
Come home...come home
Come home now baby get your ass on the lawn

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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
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.
