Vendeuse de glaces
Boulevard de la plage
Sous sa bâche elle était belle
Un sourire un peu triste
J'ai senti fraise cassis
Que je pourrais tailler la zone avec elle

Le soir sur les falaises
On est allé vanille fraise
Saluer le soleil sur son trône
En m'enlaçant elle m'a dit
Vendre des glaces m'ennuie
On laisse tout on taille la zone

Dans mon deux pièces à Paris
Elle répétait toutes les nuits
On reste pas dans l'hexagone
Je lui disais laisse-moi faire
Je règle quelques affaires
Après c'est sûr on taille la zone

Moi le bureau l'ordinateur
Elle mon aspirateur
Ses catalogues de Mobile-Home
Je savais que c'était minable
Je me suis abonné au câble
On taillait pas vraiment la zone

Elle me disait déconne pas, déconne pas
On va pas rester comme ça
Je veux les prairies, les fleurs jaunes
On va pas faire comme les gens
Vivre à cause de l'argent
On laisse tout on taille la zone

Elle rêvait de voyages
De bagages de paysages
Les grosses Harley avec des chromes
Moi mon portable et mes calmants
Mon plan d'épargne logement
Notre amour taillait la zone

Je me suis réveillé une nuit
Marchande de glaces partie
J'avais perdu mon petit Kim cône
Y a plein de filles sur le terre
Mais quand je vois une planisphère
J'ai le cœur qui taille la zone
J'ai le cœur qui taille la zone
J'ai le cœur qui taille la zone

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
