1, 2, 1, 2, 3
ruff ruff ruff...
Tripping down nations, de ba se dens

Nah nah nah...

On so many journeys
Always in a hurry
Crossing so many bridges
Just trying to make a living
But we won't stop, rocking the jam
Because we got the master plan
After tonight you'll be rocking my way
Field Marshall is the Boss DJ

People try to bruise me
but no words could ever hurt me
No no

Because the bun is in the oven
the baby's filled with lovin'
na na

Nah nah nah...

My love can move mountains
My faith is walking by you like a dog
(ruff ruff ruff...)
Be happy, sad, or vicious every mornin'
and I would die right next to you
(if I died, If I died)

Laundry trash and dishes stacking up 10 miles high
the bills are getting higher everyday
(day day day...)
Seeing that our mission has returned it to the victim

Nah nah nah...

Well you should never over look
what it takes to set the fish on the hook
close minded smile (plastic smile)
Makes you wonder why, wonder why oh why

Nah nah nah...

We can never hate the player
We can only hate the game
You can never point your finger down at me
We don't need no constitution
We don't need no mass confusion
We don't need no president to tell us we're free
Everybody wants a little taste of anarchy

Nah nah nah...

Cause my love can move mountains
And my faith is walking by you like a dog

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Plastic Bag
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.
