There's clouds and sunshine
Drawn out on a piece of printer paper.
And we're gonna thank her,
Cause this picture is worthy of the front of the refrigerator.
A picture of a house,
with a door, a window, and a chimney.
With five stick figures labeled: mommy, daddy, brother, sister, and me.

And it's so adorable
Cause the artist is only six,
And she spent her whole recess working on it.
And to us, no, it's not perfect but it's worth it.
Cause to the artist it's a work of art.

And little girl,
You're getting older now,
And you look in the mirror and you don't like that image.
So you cover it in cosmetics,
And skip meal after meal to lose the shape
That your artist intended.
But I'm here to tell you, "You were made in God's image."
And if that's not enough for you,
Then what is?
Don't change the shape that the artist intended
To cater to the mindset of some useless pigs.
Cause in the eyes of the One who made you,
Babygirl you're perfect.

You're perfect.
Don't change what's been made.
Cause you're perfect.
Don't change,
The shape.

Cause in the eyes of the One who matters,
You're so perfect.

    My Interpretation

    So I think the message of this is really obvious if you look through the lyrics and maybe I'm wrong but I see it as you were once a happy kid without a care in the world and now you care so much about how you look and how you appear to others when really you don't need to worry about them

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”

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
