Oh no, how’d I sink so low?
Ain’t got the patience, I need my medication
I need to crawl out, out of this hole now
Before the darkness grabs a hold and takes my soul now

And it just goes on and on and on
On and on and on

Yeah call the doc, I must be sick
Better get me my medicine
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again
Think I might need another prescription
Call the doc, I must be sick
Better get me my medicine
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again
I think I might need another prescription

Oh Holy Ghost, is this a vision?
I’ve got 1, 2, 3 admissions
I’m getting sick cause superstition
I need a dose, man fuck the fixing
Mama what’d you feed the children?
Pills in milk and nothing to mix em in
Who needs the milk man
I got the Trix and
Another refill ain’t gonna fix em

And it just goes on and on and on
On and on and on

Another refill ain’t gonna fix em

Call the doc, I must be sick
Better get me my medicine
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again
Think I might need another prescription
Call the doc, I must be sick
Better get me my medicine
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again
I think I might need another prescription

Oh no, no, I can’t fight it
Even when I hate it, I still wanna like it
Oh no, no, I can’t hide it
I ain’t got a dollar but I still try to buy it
Oh no, no, I can’t fight it
Even when I hate it, I still wanna like it
Oh no, no, I can’t hide it
I know you don’t know me but I know you supply it

Call the doc, I must be sick
Bitch get me my medicine
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again
Think I might need another prescription
Call the doc, I must be sick
Voices in my head again
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again

Call the doc, I must be sick
Better get me my medicine
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again
Think I might need another prescription
Call the doc, I must be sick
Better get me my medicine
Now it’s five o’clock, on the phone again
I think I might need another prescription

So call the doc, I must be sick
I’m so sick
I think I might need another prescription
Yeah call the doc, I must be sick
I’m so sick
I think I might need another prescription

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”

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
