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 said she's never been, mmm
Never been touched before
She said she'd never been
This far before
She said she'd never liked
Mmm to be excited
She said she'd always had
Had to fight it (and she never won)
She said she'd never been
Never been balled before
And I don't think, he he
She'll ever ball no more (fixed her good)
Hey
Squealer, when I held her hand
Squealer, I made her understand
Squealer, when I kissed her lips
Squealer, and sucked her finger tips
Squealer, ooh started getting hot
Squealer, made it hard to stop
Squealer, got too much
Squealer, I think I've got a magic touch oh

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
No one has commented on this? JUMP OFF A BRIDGE AND DIE! This is a damn good song. It's comment worthy.
lol i completely agree charlie...youre the man haha
there are so many hits that people dont know...this is one of many! started getttin hot made it hard to stop i think i got a magic touch!!!! so good
This is possibly my favourite AC/DC song. I love how dodgy and dirty it sounds. I can just imagine one of the hairy sweaty band members seducing some little groupie.
Ahah!
Driving bass all the way through - wow!!
definately agree with that second comment. thats what struck me at first and then I heard how Bon sang this song and its very peculiar at least the beginning.
just like all their other songs, awesome & about sex..
there are so many hits that people dont know...this is one of many! started getttin hot made it hard to stop i think i got a magic touch!!!! so good
There really isn't any song in rock that sounds quite like this song.
I don't deny that this is a rocker with that bass line,but uhm the lyrics tell me it's maybe about rough sex?
Not that I don't understand the meaning of the song but can someone explain the meaning of the lines below?
I mean, if it's what I think, then balled means fukd. But if it does, then why won't she ever ball no more?
She said she'd never been Never been balled before N' I don't think She'll ever ball no more
One of two things, I think.<br /> <br /> He gave it to her so good she'll never want/won't be able to "ball any more" (song is obviously about a virgins first time, which is supposed to hurt a lil bit) or he gave it to her so good she'll never want to ball with anyone else but him.
@Buwaa I have popped a cherry and it hurts the guy too.
