Mack attack, it's a mack attack coming from wayback

Baby I don't play that jack I'm from the dangerous crew and I tell ya it's true
Everything they said about the playboy too I'm $hort dog, ain't nothing nice I
Drink g-juice, wouldn't cut it with ice from the eastside, baby, oakland town
Can't understand why I'm so down I'm not a white wall, I'm a vogue like seen
On white wheel I roll got a fresh new beat, made ya get freaky it was
Everything ya wanted cause I can't be weak yeah, baby, that's it, do the split
Freak nasty all on my tip I took it to my dj, fresh on wax put it on the
Turntable, I got taxed it started burning up, why it's smoking? Had to be the
Sound coming straight from oakland $hort dog, it's a mack attack my name is too
$Hort baby I don't play that jack one young tender lost all hope I slapped her
In the face with my dunkie rolls another young sucka tried to front my style
Sawed off his face when they broke him in half it was the dangerous crew and I
Tell ya it's true

Everything they said about the playboy too when I sing my rhymes I'm never
Fake when ya start my beat that's when I break on you and it don't stop
And it don't stop and it won't stop cause I'm too $hort baby on the microphone
And I'm macking hit it! I'm not a wanna-be pimp, I never simp since I
Started walking I had this limp it was a cool type walk, just like me the too
S-h-o-r-t I might be young but I spit this game I started with p and it ends
The same if ya brains is lame remember the name when it's too $hort baby ain't
Nothing plain dangerous music on the microphone makes ya wanna break ya hip
Bone might break ya leg or amybe ya back grooving too hard on my mack attack
It's really not easy, ya know it's hard sorta just like my gangsta car ya know
What I mean, vern? It's like funny I mack legit and make all the money see my
Capital t on my diamond ring he hooked up the beat and loves to swing so while
Ya out there grooving back and forth I wants ya to scream out sir too $hort

Don't stop that rap! (Don't stop that rap!) and it's just like that, get busy
Girls, while I rap I make big money, that ain't no crap when I grab that mic
And spit my rhyme I gotta have an 8 or 909 (beat!) so I can rock ya all night
Long (she's!) on my tip, she loves my song (he!) tried to do it but did it
Wrong (freaks!) wanna get me all alone but I'm macking hit it! I finally got
The chance to grab my pen and make another rhyme so I can make more ends it's a
Rushed production, not the beat I rushed out the studio and hit the streets now
I'm rocking one more time young girls love my too $hort rhyme but that big fat
Girl better let that go before I point right at her and say hoe! I'm driving a
Drop top caddy, I don't dig fake I step on the gas, then I hit the break do it
Again as I catch the beat ya feeling that bass all down the street jumped off
The car in 9-0 I was wearing all white capisque had my 501's, five dunkie rolls
Couldn't be saved by john the pope the m-a-c and k from oakland, califoniyee I'

Block ya know what I want so keep ya door unlocked I'm coming in, baby, don't
Waste no time it's a mack attack and now ya mine dangerous music is what it
Seems the reason this far, just met them jeans I was running game all in ya ear
Ya talking about love to a stone cold player girl looked good, wanna have that
Sex took another look and wanted to break that neck it's a mack attack coming
From wayback my name is too $hort baby I don't play that jack I'm from the
Dangerous crew and I know it's true everything ya'll said about the playboy
Too is I'm macking

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,
