(Oh no oh oh)
Ladies lift your glasses
(Oh no oh oh)
And toast yourselves

(sweet)
(oh ra ay oh)
It's a dedication
(oh ya ah oh)

(oh ah oh)
Shaggy!

I love to see the ladies take full control (uh)
independent woman don't depend on a soul (that's right)
Confidential the fact that she has her own (uh uh)
No body has to tell her how to play her role (oh ya)

I'm talking all the honeys to my left
Sophisticated ladies are the one who set the trends
Ladies who don't hang around with no progressive friends
They don't have no time to play a silly game

Shallow mans are all the same
All the fellas who get played
Not because they pour the drinks it means they're gettin laid
Show her some respect and maybe wouldn't have been played

Yo - Now you're looking kinda dumb, I bet this pants are tiresome
I love to see the ladies take full control (love it ...)
independent woman don't depend on a soul (no depend on nobody, see)
Confidential the fact that she has her own (...)

No body has to tell her how to play her role (sweet)
(say what)Beep Beep, dude's pager going off
Car keys spinnin on his finger showin off
Bet he thinks all the hyper love the latest stuff

It takes more than flashiness for home girl to be impressed
Ladies want be be adored
Ladies want a real man to keep them reassured
Forget about the cash she wants a heart to be secured

He's not gonna sacrifie the ..., can't hang with step aside
I love to see the ladies take full control (...)(oh ay oh ay oh)
independent woman don't depend on a soul (...)(sweet)
Confidential the fact that she has her own (uh mm)(...)

No body has to tell her how to play her role (Tell em Barrington)(sweet)
She's alright (She's alright)
It don't matter what you want to offer her because she's been around the world
You're so right (You're so right)

Bet your thinking that she's confidential women but she's an independent girl
She's alright (She's alright)
It don't matter what you want to offer her because she's been around the world
You're so right (You're so right)

Bet your thinking that she's confidential women but she's an independent girl (oh oh oh oh)
I love to see the ladies take full control (...)(yeah)
independent woman don't depend on a soul (...)(sweet)
Confidential the fact that she has her own (...)

Nobody has to tell her how to play her role (Watch out)(oh yo oh)
I love to see the ladies take full control (uh)
independent woman don't depend on a soul (ah wa)
Confidential the fact that she has her own (Hot girl)

No body has to tell her how to play her role (Oh no oh oh)
... a lot of ladies, you know
Strong women (shidely shidely shidely?)...
(sweet)...

(seet ya seet ya)...
(seet ya)...
(shidely shildey shidely ahidely oh oh oh)

Shaggy
Alright (alright)

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
