Annihilate This Week

Black Flag

You annihilated this week
Now it's Sunday and you weep
A future of fun
Or a guilt loaded run
Your carnal desires
Fanning the fires
You're really burnin' 'em up
Partying n' such

*(x4)
Annihilate
Annihilate
All week long

You never think that hard
Til the devil's in your backyard
But she can't quite forget
That night in my corvette
Annihilating the week
Sledge hammers to the street
But then on Sunday
You're looking mighty weak

*(x4)

**
I'm a smokin' and drinkin' thing
(you're a regular social machine)
I'm a smokin' and drinkin' thing
(you're a radical partyin' machine)

Annihilating this week
Screwing everything that you meet
She thinks she's feeling better
But her conscience won't let her
Your thoughts temporarily deceived
But your virginity can't be retreived
You never had it before
And now you can't close the door

*(x4)

Annihilate
Annihilate
Annihilate
Annihilate
Annihilate
Annihilate
Annihilate

    On 'Who's Got the 10 & 1/2', Henry introduces this as song about "killing yourself to live".

    This song is about destroying yourself to have fun. In other words, addiction and promiscuity.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Album art
Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
