Hell Song Lyrics

Everbody's got their problems,
Everybody says the same thing to you.
It's just a matter of how you solve them,
And knowing how to change the things you've been through.
I feel I've come to realize, how fast life can be compromised.
Step back to see what's going on,
I can't believe this happened to you.
This happened to you.

It's just a problem that we're faced with, am I
Not the only one who hates to stand by.
Complications ended first in this line
With all these pictures running through my mind.
Knowing endless consequences,
I feel so useless in this.
Get back, step back and as for me, I can't believe.

Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure.
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure.

Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure.
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure anymore.

Everybody's got their problems,
Everybody says the same thing to you.
It's just a matter of how you solve them,
What is always suppose to do?

Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure.
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure.

Part of me won't agree cause I don't know if it's for sure.
Suddenly, suddenly I don't feel so insecure anymore.

Hell Song

This is about how a friend of the band contracted HIV, which impacted the band greatly and inspired them to write this. According to lead singer Deryck Whibley, this wasn't their most serious song, but it was the most personal. He also stated that it isn't an HIV or AIDS awareness song, but is supposed to make you realize how quickly things can change and how vulnerable we are. (thanks, Hunter - Atlanta, GA)

The band was doing very well at the time, with "Fat Lip" a hit single. When their friend contracted HIV, it brought them back down to earth. (thanks, Richie - charlotte, NC)

Wild Child Lyrics

Wild Child

Brett Dennen wrote the songs for his Smoke and Mirrors album whilst staying in a small town up in the mountains of Tuolumne Country, northern California. The record's lead single finds him singing about being outside, where the landscape is rugged and untamed. "You only know yourself until you're in a wild place," he told American Songwriter magazine. "Being out in nature will do that. That was the inspiration for the song."

"But really, the song is about trying not to conform, or trying to please everybody," he added. "I wrote that song as a mantra or an anthem, to remind myself that I'm the one in charge."

In The Mood Lyrics

Aw, hey now, baby,
Well, I like your smile
Won't you come and talk to me
For a little while

Well, you're making me crazy
The way you roll them eyes
Won't you come and sit with me
I'll tell you all my lies

Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight
I feel I'm In The Mood
Hey baby, the hour is late
I feel I've got to move

Well, hey now, baby
Don't you talk so fast
I'm just trying to make these good times,
I'm trying to make it last

Every thing's getting hazy
Now honey, where'd you go?
I just want to find out, baby
Where'd you learn what you know?

Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight
I feel I'm in the mood
Hey baby, the hour is late
I feel I've got to move

Well, hey now, baby
Said, I like your style
You really got me, baby
Way down deep inside

Oh, you drive me crazy
Baby, you're the one
I just want to rock-and-roll you woman
Until the night is gone

Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight
I feel I'm in the mood
Hey baby, the hour is late
I feel I've got to move

In The Mood

This is one of the few Rush songs to use the term "Rock 'n' Roll" in the lyrics. In this song, the band used the term as it was originally intended, as a synonym for sexual intercourse. (thanks, Jeff - Haltom City, TX)

This is one of very few Rush songs that even vaguely resembles a love song. Most Rush songs are much more cerebral. (thanks, Kent - Pittsfield, IL)

Bassist/singer Geddy Lee told Billboard magazine in April 2013 that this was the first song he wrote with guitarist Alex Lifeson, that they "kind of liked."

This was the first Rush song Geddy Lee heard being played on the radio. He recalled to Billboard hearing it on CHUM FM in Toronto. "I was at home. The album came out and we got all our friends and family to keep calling radio stations requesting our songs and we waited to see if someone would play it, and finally they did. I was really excited. Kind of an unreal experience."

Summer Lyrics

When I met you in the Summer
To my heartbeat sound
We fell in love
As the leaves turned brown

And we could be together baby
As long as skies are blue
You act so innocent now
But you lied so soon
When I met you in the summer

When I met you in the summer
To my heartbeat sound
We fell in love
As the leaves turned brown

And we could be together baby
As long as skies are blue
You act so innocent now
But you lied so soon
When I met you in the summer

Summer

Summer

The first single from Calvin Harris' fourth album finds Harris singing about the euphoria of a summertime romance. The exuberant club-stomper marked the Scottish DJ's first time on the microphone since 18 Months' second single, "Feel So Close." The song was played for the first time on UK's Capital Radio on March 14, 2014.

The song's Emil Nava directed music video is set in a desert where a drag race takes place, with action hero actor Jason Statham taking on Harris. The day at the races is followed by a glitzy house party.

The song was Calvin Harris' fourth UK #1 single as a lead artist following "I'm Not Alone," "Sweet Nothing" and "Under Control." The Scottish dance producer has also featured on UK chart-toppers by Dizzee Rascal ("Dance Wiv Me") and Rihanna ("We Found Love").

This was the second song titled "Summer" to reach the Top 10 of the Hot 100. The previous one by the funk-rock band War peaked at #7 in 1976.

Structurally, this song has an interesting quirk: there are no lyrics in the chorus. After Harris sings the first verse, the beat picks up but there are no vocals to go along with it, as the EDM groove provides the necessary lift on its own. This pattern is repeated again, followed by a bridge and a final chorus, giving the song a standard verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus structure, just with a chorus that could be deemed an instrumental break.

Sweet Adeline Lyrics

Put this picture into you and me
Burn it backwards, kill this history
Make it over, make it stay away
Or hate'll sing the ending that
Love started to say

There's a kid a floor below me singing
Brother can you spare sunshine for a brother
Old man winter's in the air
Walked me up a story, asking how ya' are
Told me not to worry, you're
Just a shooting star

Sweet Adeline
Sweet Adeline
My Clementine
Sweet Adeline

It's a picture perfect evening and I'm staring down the sun
Fully loaded, deaf and dumb and done
Waiting for sedation to disconnect my head
Or any situation where I'm
Better off than dead

Pease Porridge Lyrics

My name, my name, my name is the Pasta
Now I like, I like I like to plug the real thing
So loose, so loose, so loose with the tap dance
The funk, the funk, funky funky stuff I bring
My tribe, my tribe, my tribe is known as Native Tongues
Consists, consists, consists of Jungle, Quest and others
Get played, get played, played a lot on radio
And also, and also, and also by some foul brothers
The Pease, the Pease the Pease Porridge never failed
It kept, it kept us calm, our stylin' merry
But late, but lately loonies acting real bold
Can't sip in luxury my apple cranberry
Girls watch, and watch, and watch I dance the big tut
Our home, our home our homeboys has to plan tricks
Don't real, don't real, don't realise the Native Tongue
Is rollin' strong and we're startin' in the megamix

Question, and that's if only I can ask this question
Can I? (Yes you can!)
Why do people think just because we speak peace
We can't blow no joints?
(I-I-I don't know)

Mase, this is the ninth day I've reheated this porridge. You know it
Keeps me peacefully, no?

Yeah, but my tolerance level has now peaked
And now it's time for some heads to get flown

We bring, we bring, we bring, we bring the peace of course
But pack a nine inside, inside my De La drawers
A picture, picture, picture, picture painted pink
Could turn to red, to red, to red in blooded quick
But in a single file my Native Tongue is calm
I'd rather, rather pass a brother a pound or palm
I kick, I kick, I kick a verse of unity
And shack, and shackle steps to the beat, beat
I click, I click the TV to the Simpsons
And sip the Porridge deep into my system
So mel, so mellow mode is my day mode
Inside the studio or on a road
The Shwing, the Shwingalo is the now step
It's murder if you bet cause you're life's jep
To praise, to praise the Soul is on a down drag
It's false, because I'll spray you with the Black Flag

(Pease Porridge in the pot)
(Pease Porridge in the pot)
(Pease Porridge in the pot)
(Nine days old)

Can't stand, can't stand, can't stand the pop music
Brother, brother, brothers pop a lot of pow
Don't watch, don't watch, don't watch a lot of basketball
Don't und, don't understand the act of being foul
Hey D, hey D, hey DJ set the record up
It's time, it's time, it's time to tame the naughty pups
Throw on the Touching Fingers serenade
So we can throw our lemonade
In their face and kick their little butts

People wanna get ragged with the reruns
Me not, me not, me not scared to trudge a bit
They can't, they can't, they can't get close to none
I tap, I tap, I tap a dance war skit
The por, the por, the Porridge got crazy cold
We won't, we won't eat until the heads are flown
Take advantage to a cool one's peaceful ways
But when, but when we fly that head all the people say

Here in Frogland, we always eat our Porridge, cause it keeps us frogs
Real peaceful like

In my land, my people adore Porridge. And I don't understand why De La
Soul is so violent
And we are so peaceful, we sit by the camp fire and listen to our rituals, and
They are so violent. I don't understand
I don't understand

(Pease Porridge in the pot)
(Nine days old)

(Pease Porridge in the pot)
(Nine days old)

Pease Porridge

This song is based around a deceptively jaunty sample of American whistling and bone-playing recording artist Brothers Bones' "Black Eyed Susan Brown." You may know Brother Bones from his recording of the standard "Sweet Georgia Brown," which became internationally famous after being adopted as the theme song of the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team in 1952.

Other samples in the song include James Browns' "Make It Funky," the Headhunters' "God Made Me Funky" and Harrell & Sharon Lucky's "Pease Porridge Hot" and "Finger Fun."

The lyric finds De La Soul pointing out that just because they are laid-back, it doesn't mean they'll let any one walk over them. Trugoy the Dove explained to Melody Maker: "That song's just saying that if people want to test us, we're not gonna stand for it. Just 'cos we spoke about being peaceful and positive, it doesn't mean we're gonna let ourselves be trampled on. We will do whatever it takes to defend ourselves. There have been situations where people tried to test us, and we defended ourselves, and whether it was worse for us or for them, it doesn't really matter."

Trugoy added that he's not talking about gangsta rappers but kids of different ages that the band met in clubs. "They'd come to see our show, so it wasn't to do with music, it was just them wanting to test us as so-called peaceful people." he said.

Mother Lyrics

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?

Mother do you think they'll like this song?

Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls?

Ooh, ah
Mother should I build the wall?
Mother should I run for President?
Mother should I trust the government?
Mother will they put me in the firing mine?
Ooh ah,
Is it just a waste of time?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry.
Mama's gonna make all your nightmares come true.
Mama's gonna put all her fears into you.
Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing.
Mama's gonna keep baby cozy and warm.
Ooh baby, ooh baby, ooh baby,
Of course mama's gonna help build the wall.

Mother do you think she's good enough?
For me?
Mother do you think she's dangerous,
To me?
Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
Ooh ah,
Mother will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby don't you cry.
Mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
Mama won't let anyone dirty get through.
Mama's gonna wait up until you get in.
Mama will always find out where you've been.
Mama's gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
Ooh baby, ooh baby, ooh baby,
You'll always be baby to me.

Mother, did it need to be so high?

Mother

The movie The Wall is a semi-autobiographical story about a young boy that loses his father in the war and is raised by his overly protective mother. The child grows up alone as an outsider that absolutely does not fit in. He feels trapped by his overly protective environment while being shunned by the men around him.

Roger Waters: "If you can level one accusation at mothers, it is that they tend to protect their children too much. Too much and for too long. This isn't a portrait of my mother, although one or two of the things in there apply to her as well as to I'm sure lots of other people's mothers." (thanks, Mike - Mountlake Terrace, Washington, for above 2)

Waters told Mojo magazine December 2009: "The song has some connection with my mother, for sure, though the mother that Gerald Scarfe visualises in his drawings couldn't be further from mine. She's nothing like that." (For the film version of The Wall, cartoonist Gerald Scarfe visualised the mother as a huge monstrous woman with a brick-wall bosom.)
Waters went on to admit to Mojo that the overly protective suffocating mother portrayed in the song has some similarities to his own mum. He said: "My mother was suffocating in her own way. She always had to be right about everything. I'm not blaming her. That's who she was. I grew up with a single parent who could never hear anything I said, because nothing I said could possibly be as important as what she believed. My mother was, to some extent, a wall herself that I was banging my head against. She lived her life in the service of others. She was a school teacher. But it wasn't until I was 45, 50 years old that I realised how impossible it was for her to listen to me."
Mojo asked Waters if his mother saw herself in the song? He replied: "She's not that recognisable. The song is more general, the idea that we can be controlled by our parents' views on things like sex. The single mother of boys, particularly, can make sex harder than it needs to be."

Pearl Jam performed this song on September 30, 2011 as part of a week long Pink Floyd tribute on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. The Shins, Foo Fighters, MGMT, and Dierks Bentley all played Pink Floyd songs on the show that week.

Pink Floyd's drummer Nick Mason didn't play on this track. According to Roger Waters, this was because Mason had trouble with the 5/4 time signatures and other changes, as "his brain doesn't work that way." Jeff Porcaro, who was a session drummer and also a member of the band Toto, took his place. Mason was also replaced on drums (this time by Andy Newmark) on the track "Two Suns in the Sunset" from the album The Final Cut.

Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines recorded a cover version in 2013 which was the title track to her first solo album. She decided to cover the song after hearing Roger Waters perform it on his Wall tour. Waters loved her rendition, telling Rolling Stone, "I get goosebumps just talking about it."

My Brother Is A Basehead Lyrics

My Brother Is A Basehead

De La Soul's Posdnuos wrote this anti-crack narrative out of anger from his own older brothers' problems with drugs. The song is basically a true story but one detail is changed from real life: Unlike the track's subject, Posdnous' sibling went into rehab. He explained to Melody Maker: "Basehead is slang for someone who freebases or smokes crack. When he was basin', I had strong feelings about it."

"Some people might have thought it was too personal for them to write about, but I really didn't care," Posdnous added. "It helped get it off my chest, plus I thought a lot of people could identify with it and it could help people. Word by word, it's not following what actually happened, but it's close. It relates how we grew up together and how his downfall began."

This is about a tough but fair group of Hawaiian surfers who live on the North Shore of Hawaii. If you were to mess with them, you could get a beating; hence the line, "Don't f**k with Da Hui."

The video was filmed on the North Shore of Hawaii, and featured four guys of Da Hui. (thanks, Hunter - Atlanta, GA, for above 2)

The four guys were, as follows Johnny Boy Gomes, Kala Alexander, Sunny Garcia, and Makua Rothman. As a further explanation of what the song is about, it's about a white guy novice from the mainland who's intimidated by the band of hardcore surfers. (thanks, Sara - Reno, NV)

Diana wrote this song with former Blue Magoos frontman Peppy Castro (best known for their 1967 hit song "(We Ain't Got) Nothin' Yet"). It was included as the B-side to her single "Missing You."

Castro recalled to The Diana Ross Project : "I had the song, which was written with my ex-wife Mary Kelly, and had a great concept for it. I tried to pitch Diana about it but she didn't get it or wasn't prepared to follow through. My original version was a little more rock and what Diana did was right for her and her record."

"I envisioned a video based around Diana in a stadium with children from all over the world marching in to her much like the Olympics," Castro continued. "As it was PM Magazine, a TV show out of Philly, did a half hour special with Diana based on the song with children. So they got the concept."

Use just once and destroy
Invasion of our piracy
Afterbirth of a nation
Starve without your skeleton key

I love you for what I am not
I do not want what I have got
A blanket acne'ed with ciggarette burns
Speak at once while taking turns
Second-rate third defree burns
What is wrong with me
What is what I need
What do I think I think
This had nothing to do with what you think
If you ever think at all
Bi-polar opposites attract
All of a sudden my water broke
Hate, hate your enemies
Save, save your friends
Find, find your place
Speak, speak the truth

According to Kurt Cobain, this song is a throwaway song - just a bunch of random poetry lines thrown together.

The title is a reference to the Nirvana song "Smells Like Teen Spirit

," and it's slick, radio-friendly sound. The original title for the song, "Four Month Media Blackout," is a reference to late 1991 and 1992, when "Teen Spirit" was on the charts. (thanks, Steve - Whippany, NJ, for above 2)

Nirvana used this to open many of their 1993 and 1994 shows. (thanks, Carlito - Cameron Park, CA)

I've been watching and talked down to you all night long
Girl it's so wrong
How we, don't even wanna dance with you
Flipping through his phone like he don't even see
You're too pretty to left alone
Sooner or later somebody's gonna take you home

Are You Leaving With Him
Are you leaving with me
I'm looking for my end, and it's all in
While he's just waiting for the night to end
I ain't never seen nothing like you
But I got it in my mind what I wanna do
Are you really leaving with him
Are you leaving with me

You can sit there letting time pass
Looking at your nails, staring down in your glass
Or you can just look up my way
See me wanting you, written on my face
I ain't gonna tell you what you wanna do
Cause you gonna do what you wanna do

Are you leaving with him
Are you leaving with me
I'm looking for my end, and it's all in
While he's just waiting for the night to end
I ain't never seen nothing like you
But I got it in my mind what I wanna do
Are you really leaving with him
Are you leaving with me

It's the last song of the night
You take a sip and we locked eyes

Are you leaving with him
Are you leaving with me
I'm looking for my end, and it's all in
While he's just waiting for the night to end
I ain't never seen nothing like you
But I got it in my mind what I wanna do
Are you really leaving with him
Are you really leaving with him
Or are you leaving with me
Come on girl, won't you go with me

Are You Leaving With Him

This song finds Bryan asking a girl why she's spending her time with a jerk when if she hooked up with him, he would treat her so much better. The track is from the singer's sixth Spring Break EP, Like We Ain't Ever. He said the cuts on each release free him up creatively. "I just started writing music without parameters…but with Spring Break, if we wanna drop a little cuss word in there or something, we don't sweat it, and that frees us up more creatively to where we don't get too bound by what's goin' on when we're in the writing room," said Bryan. "My whole idea is that 10 years down the road, you know, we've done 10 Spring Break albums and two or three of those Spring Break songs went on to become big hits that were kind of quirky songs that were spawned from it, then this whole ride has been a success."
