Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Boogie down, boogie down
You gotta get serious
What, what come on

Perplexing as I racks the decks so check the flex poetical sex I
Bring the
Funk to your necks check it
Second time around better than the first, I quench your thirst,
My rhymes
Fill ya till ya burst

Get serious
Cause we're gonna do for you, you know it's true we got a second
Album
Coming through
Too many people thought we couldn't go on
But yo, we're still number one see we shine like the sun

Hands up in the air
Wave 'em like you care
Feel the funky beat
Everybody on your feet

Get serious
We got it going on tonight
Get serious
Everything will be alright
All I know is true that I want to be with you
You gotta get serious, serious, serious

Could I be the one that twists tighter than a curl
Coming through from the mist
Check my definition, rhyme composition
On the double o-5ive mission
With the aim to please any beef with the rod gone fishing
Check if you're down tonight
Put your hands in the air if you feel alright
Got enough for what you need
So get serious Baby please

Hands up in the air
Wave 'em like you care
Feel the funky beat
Everybody on your feet

Get serious
We got it going on tonight
Get serious
Everything will be alright
All I know is true that I want to be with you
You gotta get serious, serious, serious

Now we've been waiting for so long
Give me a chance to get it through
You are the flavur to my song
That's why I want to be, want to be with you

Stop, clear the stage so we can get busy
Open up your mind while I hit you with the nitty gritty
We came to rhyme, we came to get down
Wo when we rock the mike we bring the funk into your town
So I drop a rhyme onto the mike while it's mine then you gotta
Pass it on
While I rock you with a line
As we hip we hop we're getting others in the run
Flicking switches on the bottom of the mike cause we're done

Get serious
We got it going on tonight
Get serious
Everything will be alright
All I know is true that I want to be with you
You gotta get serious, serious, serious

Get serious
We got it going on tonight
Get serious
Everything will be alright
All I know is true that I want to be with you
You gotta get serious, serious, serious

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.

Gentle Hour
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,

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.

Plastic Bag
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.
