(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)

Where you goin' boy, I see your legs twitchin'
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
My daddy says you just need a good lickin'
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
You say you gonna be the king of Las Vegas
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
You're just a boy who comes from bad places
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)

Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why
Do fools fall in love with fools like you
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)

Why did you go and crash up your new car
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
Is it because it didn't take you too far
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
Why do you always have such a sad face
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
Is it because you want to get out of this place
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)

Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why
Do fools fall in love with fools like you
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)

You're much too wild for this town
There's not much here that's gonna hold you down
You gotta lotta style it should take you far
Take you further than my back yard

Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la
Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la
Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la
Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la

Took my advice and got out of this place
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
This old town ain't never gonna be the same
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
I really love you, I just couldn't tell you so
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
I should've said it then, now you'll never know
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)

Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why
Do fools fall in love

You're much too wild for this town
There's not much here that's gonna hold you down
You gotta lotta style it should take you far
Take you further than my back yard

(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)
(Jimmy Jimmy, oh Jimmy Jimmy)

Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why
Do fools fall in love with fools like you

Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la
Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la
Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la
Oop shoo boop oop oop sha la la la

Hey! I really love you Jimmy
Hey! I really love you Jimmy
Hey! I really love you Jimmy
Hey! I really love you, love you Jimmy

Sha la la la

    This song is about my best friend Jimmy.

    "Where you goin' boy, I see your legs twitchin'" - my best friend Jimmy's legs probably twitch, because he sits on his legs at the computer desk.

    "Why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why Do fools fall in love with fools like you" - my best friend Jimmy has women falling over him. And he is such a fool - he listens to Guns n Roses! Ew!!

    "Why do you always have such a sad face" - my best friend Jimmy is always sad. One time he tried to smile but it didn't look like a smile. I have never seen him smile.

    "You gotta lotta style it should take you far" - my best friend Jimmy is very stylish. He owns a Lonsdale zip up top.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

Holiday
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.

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
