In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
[Chorus x 2]
It ain't nothing like the first time
I'm tryin' to tell you I can blow your mind
Baby, if I touch you here and kiss you there
Gonna fall in love, shorty, best beware
This ain't no love song
More like a cut song
You say your day was long, well, tell daddy what's wrong
I'm a tell you one time, just relax and unwind
Whisper sweet nothings, now you blushing, chills down your spine
Oh yeah, you hot and tempted
Oh no, not Pretty Ricky
But when you grind on me
I'm a leave you hot and drippin'
Slip in those satin sheets
Now go and roll over
Oh yeah, it's up and down motions like a roller coaster
I see she up on top
You all on my jock
I'm a do it nonstop until your cherry pop
I'm a keep going and going, the energizer bunny
Mr Long John all in your tummy
[Chorus x 2]
Won't you let me introduce ya to thug Kamasutra?
This ain't no lovey dovey (nah), but watch how I seduce ya
Girl, I'm the man, I, I, I'm the man
I push the right buttons and the sex on demand
Oh yeah, I like it slow
Baby, be easy
Ooo, watch ya teeth
Baby, be easy
Tell me your Vicky secrets
Tell me all the dirt
You smell like peaches
Must bath and body works
Love the way your body work
I'm a make your body rock
Once you climax, you feel the aftershock
(I know I got you hooked on this lovin'
Don't get it twisted; we just cutin', baby)
[Chorus x 2]
Yeah, I know, I know I still ain't went soft
But I gotta go
Let's hit the shower, baby
It's time to rinse off
I'll wash yours, you wash mine
I adore it the first time
I blew yours, you blew mines
Sometimes I'll drop you a line
But, look, don't tell nobody
Just keep it on the low
Not your best friend, not your cousin
Nobody's gotta know
I know it sounds crazy, but that's just how it is
Yung J-O-C, long live, long live
[Chorus x 2]
It ain't nothing like the first time
I'm tryin' to tell you I can blow your mind
Baby, if I touch you here and kiss you there
Gonna fall in love, shorty, best beware
This ain't no love song
More like a cut song
You say your day was long, well, tell daddy what's wrong
I'm a tell you one time, just relax and unwind
Whisper sweet nothings, now you blushing, chills down your spine
Oh yeah, you hot and tempted
Oh no, not Pretty Ricky
But when you grind on me
I'm a leave you hot and drippin'
Slip in those satin sheets
Now go and roll over
Oh yeah, it's up and down motions like a roller coaster
I see she up on top
You all on my jock
I'm a do it nonstop until your cherry pop
I'm a keep going and going, the energizer bunny
Mr Long John all in your tummy
[Chorus x 2]
Won't you let me introduce ya to thug Kamasutra?
This ain't no lovey dovey (nah), but watch how I seduce ya
Girl, I'm the man, I, I, I'm the man

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.
