The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
I'm so hot I make you sweat
I make your pussy get very wet
I'm not perfect—you can find a defect
But I make your penis
Erect
You may wonder how I got so hot
I'm certainly not very pretty
I am hot because I'm vegan
I don't consume secretions from a cow's titty
Vegans are hot
Baby, vegans are hot
Compassion is hot
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Vegans are hot
Kindness is very sexy, baby
Kindness is fucking great
I respect my fellow animals
I've got no time for any hate
You may have heard somebody say
"Peace begins on your plate"
That shit is fuckin' true, my friends
Go vegan—it is never too late
Vegans are hot
Baby, vegans are hot
Compassion is hot
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Vegans are hot
Even if you're not ready to go vegan yet
You'll love eating vegan dishes, I bet
Anything can be veganized
You may be very surprised
Sometimes you'll be eating, and you'll say
"What the fuck? This is vegan? It's delicious!"
Of course it's delicious and nutritious
Vegan is the real deal, not fictitious
Vegans are hot
Baby, vegans are hot
Compassion is hot
I make your pussy get very wet
I'm not perfect—you can find a defect
But I make your penis
Erect
You may wonder how I got so hot
I'm certainly not very pretty
I am hot because I'm vegan
I don't consume secretions from a cow's titty
Vegans are hot
Baby, vegans are hot
Compassion is hot
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Vegans are hot
Kindness is very sexy, baby
Kindness is fucking great
I respect my fellow animals
I've got no time for any hate
You may have heard somebody say
"Peace begins on your plate"
That shit is fuckin' true, my friends
Go vegan—it is never too late
Vegans are hot
Baby, vegans are hot
Compassion is hot
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-be vegan
Vegans are hot
Even if you're not ready to go vegan yet
You'll love eating vegan dishes, I bet
Anything can be veganized
You may be very surprised
Sometimes you'll be eating, and you'll say
"What the fuck? This is vegan? It's delicious!"
Of course it's delicious and nutritious
Vegan is the real deal, not fictitious
Vegans are hot
Baby, vegans are hot
Compassion is hot

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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”
