Check it out

(Chorus)
Check the O.R., you like it so far?
Check the O.R., you like it so far?
Check the O.R., you like it so far?
Check the O.R., you love the O.R.

Here we go, ready to set it off
From coast to coast, it's the most and it hits rough
Organized Rhyme's here to start it up
You got some trouble with your mouth you'd better shut it up
Think twice before you act and try to tackle the funky stuff
I take you suckers out like meat on a shish kebab
And you don't know it, but your girl's doin' kiss-and-rob
And you're the one who wants the corn, but you missed the cob
So here's a bit of something new:
Gimmie a toot, and salute, and I'll give you my boots
We're your need, and while I'm playing the thespian
I got a ride and you're just a pedestrian
I grab a horse and I jump like equestrian
I talk smooth like Lando Calrissian
Deal with the leader of the convoy
Make some noise for the boys as we rip points
Move your joints in a motion if you can keep up
If you can't, here's a hanky to clean your weep up
Poetics I drop, then no time for coincidence
Check the O.R.

(Chorus x2)

Check the O.R., you like it so far?
Smack your back - Can you deal with a deep scar?
I will test ya from the west of ya
Now ya know that I'm better than the best of ya
I remove you quicker than a Band-Aid
Paid backstage and I'm gone like a renegade
And I don't delay, want the replay?
Like Sinatra, got ya my way
I feel lowly so I lay low
Never lonely now that I clock dough
Flippin' women over like a pancake
And I will make mistakes in a heartbreak
Recieve honours, make you goners
Break the deuce like Jimmy Connors
I'm not a phony, preaching testimony
Send you down to the bank for the alimony
I make light of everyday establishment
With content sticking like Poli-dent
But I pay my dues
I lay more chicks than Mother Goose
Pass the O.J., 'cause I got juice
Break the silence, and make the truce
So yes yes, y'all - And you don't stop
To the beat, y'all - And you don't dare stop
To the hip, hop, hibby, hibby-dibby hip-hip-hop and you don't dare go off
Go off like a canon, you're a copier
Much sloppier so I'm gonna' drop ya
You got a demo? Well I guess I'm gonna' shop ya
Take a risk, like a disk you're floppier
Uplifted 'cause I'm gifted
Tough like algebra, but I'm twisted
You mistfit, meet the better man
Gonna' razz you just like Letterman
Hip-hop, not a weasel goin' pop
You don't stop
Check the O.R.

(Chorus x2)

Back at last to compose the next swift rap
Broom in my pocket so I don't need a hip pack
Hip-hop tactics is what I be practicin'
I don't act, I see heads and I crack 'em
Only if they need it. I'm really a nice guy
Still, I got a temp', but to the ladies I talk fly
Makin' 'em smile for a while when I begin
(Pin the chameleon) Comp'nies, here I am
Headin' the right way and I won't stop this
I'm knowin' the time, but I don't wear a pop Swatch
Play MCs when I jump like in hopscotch
Climbed the ranks, so consider me top-notch
Take control of your system when I'm in it
You wanna' get with this? I hit with persistence
Swing, the countdown, 1-2-3-4
Smooth it out, now check the O.R.

(Chorus x6)

    Yeah, Tom Green is in it. He does the second verse.

    This song is gold, "I lay more chicks than Mother goose."

    My friends say that raps that don't have swearing in it suck. This song proves them wrong.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
