Paper Planes
M.I.A. Lyrics
“Paper Planes”
I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make ’em all day
I get one done in a second if you wait
If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make ’em all day
I get one done in a second if you wait
I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make ’em all day
I get one done in a second if you wait
Sometimes I think sitting on trains
Every stop I get to I’m clocking that game
Everyone’s a winner, we’re making our fame
Bona fide hustler making my name
Sometimes I think sitting on trains
Every stop I get to I’m clocking that game
Everyone’s a winner, we’re making our fame
Bona fide hustler making my name
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
Pirate skulls and bones
Sticks and stones and weed and bongs
Running when we hit ’em
Lethal poison for the system
Pirate skulls and bones
Sticks and stones and weed and bombs
Running when we hit ’em
Lethal poison for the system
No one on the corner has swagger like us
Hit me on my burner prepaid wireless
We pack and deliver like UPS trucks
Already going hell just pumping that gas
No one on the corner has swagger like us
Hit me on my burner prepaid wireless
We pack and deliver like UPS trucks
Already going hell just pumping that gas
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
M.I.A.
Third world democracy
Yeah, I got more records than the K.G.B.
So, uh, no funny business
Are you ready all?
Some some some I some I murder
Some I some I let go
Some some some I some I murder
Some I some I let go
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All I wanna do is
And a
And take your money

It samples the 1982 Clash song “Straight to Hell”.
The song climbed into to the Top 10 of the US Hot 100 in mid-2008 after being featured in the trailer for the movie Pineapple Express, and then later used in the soundtrack for 2008 film Slumdog Millionaire.
My Feelings Never Wane
I’d fight with fire just to get close to you…
~
~
My feelings
those dark, delirious
delicious feelings
My wants relentless
My needs
of desire ~ love ~ lust
never wane
they pulse pizzicato,
firm, strong
stronger
flowing thru me,
Vibrating my being
sighing touching tasting streaming
My thoughts never stop
touching
searching for yours
My lips never stop
aching
throbbing for a taste,
A bite
a lingering lick
of your skin
My body never stops
humming, quivering
burning to feel your lips
And though life is often insane
in its chaos
it never drives me to distraction
Only you commit that crime
Though I get lost, overwhelmed
and cannot find the strength to fight
Knowing you breathe and exist
Knowing you live in my world
Knowing who you are is my forever breath of life
You are my muse
My poetry
my inspiration
My desire
My delight

Curiousities
So, I’m watching
The Magnificent Seven
(original version, thank you, very much)
and
I hear the soundtrack.
The soundtrack is vibrant, strong, beautiful.
The soundtrack is westerny, tough, and jagged.
The music was nominated for an Academy award.
It’s a fabulous score.
It’s a wonderful movie.
So, as I’m watching and listening I notice a certain part of the score sounds EXACTLY like something I’ve heard in LoTR: The Two Towers.
Just listen.
Listen to each one.
Dog Days are Done by Florence and the Machine
#1. This is a GREAT SONG!!! It’s by Florence and the Machine. I heard it while driving.
That’s the only way I hear ‘new’ music nowadays
#2. Weird, when I was a teenager,
I used to be the one who found stuff before anyone else, well, a few elses.
It’s hard ‘growing up’. Meaning, I can’t sit and listen to music all day.
It’s hard growing up, meaning,
I’m not really grown up, just in a different dimension.
Make sense?
THIS SONG kinda sums it up.
As I was listening to it I was thinking,
Damn them, for being so happy, not fair.
I wonder what it feels like?
And then I thought, what if I could make myself
and those around me happy?
I thought, what if I could decide to be happy?
and make this song come true?
What a dream, a beautiful, wonderful, perfect dream of HAPPY!!!
I hope you love it as much as I do.
