The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
In the shelves of the video store
In the cherry red corridor
Is where I found you
Chintzy as a neon sign
But you still threw me the powerline
I guess you had nothing to do
Magically the cabs were quiet
During the usual avenue yellow riot
I guess you're going with someone
Tell me, does it double your fun
To be cruel?
To be cruel?
[Chorus]
She says she's
Single after sundown
All good fun till the shakedown
In the eve of the summertime
True love only part time, eh eh
And this is truth
In your skin tight neoprene
I'm a loaded magazine
Or is that uncouth?
I know its wrong but I'm overruled
Tonight she takes me to night school
(hey that's the name of the record!)
As she turns up the traffic jams
And the breaks are slammed, she asks
Would that be cool?
Would that be cool?
[Chorus]
She says she's
Single after sundown
All good fun till the shakedown
And yea we're gonna kick it, yeah
Any way she can
Go on, turn up the traffic jams
We all have those feelings
We need to console
In the cherry red corridor
Is where I found you
Chintzy as a neon sign
But you still threw me the powerline
I guess you had nothing to do
Magically the cabs were quiet
During the usual avenue yellow riot
I guess you're going with someone
Tell me, does it double your fun
To be cruel?
To be cruel?
[Chorus]
She says she's
Single after sundown
All good fun till the shakedown
In the eve of the summertime
True love only part time, eh eh
And this is truth
In your skin tight neoprene
I'm a loaded magazine
Or is that uncouth?
I know its wrong but I'm overruled
Tonight she takes me to night school
(hey that's the name of the record!)
As she turns up the traffic jams
And the breaks are slammed, she asks
Would that be cool?
Would that be cool?
[Chorus]
She says she's
Single after sundown
All good fun till the shakedown
And yea we're gonna kick it, yeah
Any way she can
Go on, turn up the traffic jams
We all have those feelings
We need to console

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
Van Halen
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.
