Scarlett
Girl of glamour
Scarlett never cries
She shakes her head and sighs
At all life's little mysteries
And where she fits in all of these
Her friends all ask her why
She lets the days go by
They say that Scarlett should be sinking
But they don't know just what she's thinking
She's got no money but come tomorrow
What she ain't got you know she'll borrow
Life's a game and games are for playing
So listen now to what she's saying
This is Scarlett speaking
This is my ambition
I wanna have fun while I'm still young
So you'd better listen
Captain Scarlett speaking
On a secret mission
I aim for thrills and I shoot to kill
Got no competition
Clock says half past ten
She paints her face again
The night is young and Scarlett's willing
She's heading out, she's got that feeling
She's got no money but come tomorrow
What she ain't got you know she'll borrow
Life's a game and games are for playing
So listen now to what she's saying
This is Scarlett speaking
This is my ambition
I wanna have fun while I'm still young
So you'd better listen
Captain Scarlett speaking
On a secret mission
I aim for thrills and I shoot to kill
Got no competition
She's got no money but come tomorrow
What she ain't got you know she'll borrow
Life's a game and games are for playing
So listen now to what she's saying
This is Scarlett speaking
This is my ambition
I wanna have fun while I'm still young
So you'd better listen
Captain Scarlett speaking
On a secret mission
I aim for thrills and I shoot to kill
Got no competition
Scarlett never cries
Scarlett
Girl of glamour
Scarlett never cries
She shakes her head and sighs
At all life's little mysteries
And where she fits in all of these
Her friends all ask her why
She lets the days go by
They say that Scarlett should be sinking
But they don't know just what she's thinking
She's got no money but come tomorrow
What she ain't got you know she'll borrow
Life's a game and games are for playing
So listen now to what she's saying
This is Scarlett speaking
This is my ambition
I wanna have fun while I'm still young
So you'd better listen
Captain Scarlett speaking
On a secret mission
I aim for thrills and I shoot to kill
Got no competition

The night is young and Scarlett's willing
She's heading out, she's got that feeling
She's got no money but come tomorrow

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.
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.
