Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one, down at the rock and roll club

They say Richard are you gonna go out tonight?
I am uncertain I ain't feeling too right
But I rip up my shirt, watch the mirror it flirt
Yeah, I'm going out, out, into sight

Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one, down at the rock and roll club

On the street air is thin, dim night like the rest
At the door of the club lounging eyes so undressed
Then you open the door, and the noise shakes the floor
Oh baby night after night here tonight is the best

Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one, down at the rock and roll club

I say hey how's the group, when's the set gonna start?
She says I know that girl, there's a tattoo on her heart
She pivots in rage, and the band hits the stage
Sexy love ricochets round everyone's part

Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one, down at the rock and roll club

I say everybody's waiting, I want moments like these
Oh baby get me drunk, I'll go to my knees
Such a surge overload, oh the whole joint explode
Everyone you ever saw indulging in squeeze

Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one, down at the rock and roll club

Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one, down at the rock and roll club

Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one

Partner don' you pull no gun, down at the rock and roll club
We just gonna have some fun, down at the rock and roll club
Sweetheart would you buy me one, down at the rock and roll club...

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
