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.
(She was living in a single room with three other individuals
One of them was a male, and the other two
Well, the other two were females
God only knows what they were up to in there
And furthermore Susan I wouldn't be
The least bit surprised to learn that all four of them
Habitually smoked marijuana cigarettes, reefers)
I smoke two joints in the morning
I smoke two joint at night
I smoke two joint in the afternoon
It makes me feel alright
I smoke two joints in time of peace
And two in time of war
I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints
And then I smoke two more
(Smoke cigarettes 'til the day she dies!
Toke a big spliff of some good sensimillia
Smoke cigarettes 'til the day she dies!
Toke a big spliff of some good sensamill
Eazy-E were ya ever caught slippin'? Hell nah!)
Daddy he once told me
"Son, you be hard workin' man"
And momma she once told me
"Son, you do the best you can"
Then one day I met a man
He came to me and said
"Hard work good and hard work fine
But first take care of head"
Whoa rock me to the night
Jah say oh oh oh oh oh
One of them was a male, and the other two
Well, the other two were females
God only knows what they were up to in there
And furthermore Susan I wouldn't be
The least bit surprised to learn that all four of them
Habitually smoked marijuana cigarettes, reefers)
I smoke two joints in the morning
I smoke two joint at night
I smoke two joint in the afternoon
It makes me feel alright
I smoke two joints in time of peace
And two in time of war
I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints
And then I smoke two more
(Smoke cigarettes 'til the day she dies!
Toke a big spliff of some good sensimillia
Smoke cigarettes 'til the day she dies!
Toke a big spliff of some good sensamill
Eazy-E were ya ever caught slippin'? Hell nah!)
Daddy he once told me
"Son, you be hard workin' man"
And momma she once told me

But first take care of head"
Whoa rock me to the night
Jah say oh oh oh oh oh

Holiday
Bee Gees
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
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
In case you weren't counting, that's 16 joints. Didn't Sublime cover this song? I seem to remember a line about "I smoke to joints when I play video games, and every 10,000 points...."
