Little Dreamer – Van Halen

They may talk about you cold when you were

Headed for the skies

But you were young and bold and baby didn’t that

Change with a wink of your eye

Now no one’s talkin’ ’bout those

Crazy days gone by

No one talks about the

Times you cried

(Oooh) Little dreamer

(Oooh) Uh, little dreamer

And then they voted you

Least likely to succeed

I hadda tell them baby, you were armed with

All you’d need

Seems no one’s talkin’ ’bout those

Crazy days gone past

Weren’t they amazed when you were

Really last

(Oooh) You are the little dreamer

(Oooh) You were the little dreamer, yeah, yeah

Yeah they talk about you cold when you were

Headed for the skies

But you were young and bold and baby didn’t that

Change with a wink of your eye

Seems no one’s talkin’ ’bout the

Crazy days gone past

Weren’t they amazed when you were

Really last

(Oooh) You are the little dreamer

(Oooh) Little dreamer, oh yeah, oh

(Oooh) Little dreamer

(Oooh) Little dreamer

Elephant – Tame Impala

As I mentioned in my post for Mind Mischief, I love Tame Impala’s retro sound.

Well, he feels like an elephant

Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it

He knows that you’re dreaming about being loved by him.

Too bad your chances are slim

And it’s not like mister shook to get shy when they ask him who is on top

There must be something deep down in the dark down there

He’s not too easily scared

He’s got friends but they got fear

Wouldn’t care too much if he just disappeared

Oh, look see there he is now coming down the stairs

Here he comes

He pulled the mirrors off his Cadillac

‘Cause he doesn’t like it looking like he looks back

He talks like his opinion is a simple fact

Somebody grabbed his collar

He cried the whole way home

No one been remembered a thing when they saw him again

That’s how it is ’til the end

Yeah

Happy #MusicMonday and h/t Tren C

Mind Mischief – Tame Impala

I love Tame Impala’s retro sound. When I say retro kids, I mean 60s and 70s. I have the limited edition of Innerspeaker from 2010 and still enjoy it. Mind Mischief is on the second album, Lonerism. 

The “official” video is linked below. It’s kind of NSFW and the song & video can be interpreted many ways. The album Lonerism is about a lonely guy. So I think the song and the “official” video are about a lonely school boy who fantasizes about his teacher. There are sexual overtones to the video and song and I’ll just leave it at that.

Feels like my life is ready to blow,

Me and my love we’ll take it slow.

I hope she knows that I’ll love her long,

I just don’t know where the hell I belong.

How optimism led me astray,

Two hundred things I took the wrong way.

But I saw her love gauge running low,

I tried to fill but it overflowed.

She remembers my name

Could be blown way out…

It’s all going to change

She remembers my name.

But she was only messing around,

Please, no more playing with my heart.

Ooh, go with mr. right just for once!

Oooh, no more mischief with my mind.

Then it all just came out

Guess I’ll hold it in next time…

No more getting it wrong,

I’ll be frozen here on.

If forever we’ll see,

but no more guessing for me.

Oh, I was just so sure of everything

Ooh, that’s what you get for dreaming aloud

Oh, the day that words are clearer to me.
