I like storytelling songs. And fast lyrics.
ORANGE COUNTY ZOMBIES OF SKA!
Hey hey look over here it's the craziest sound since some hobo yelled "Football! Hail Mary! You get baptized in the water....by the Baptists!"
Story behind the song
well, its about the tour...in fact, the lyrics tell the whole story, so read those.
Lyrics
VERSE 1
What have we got to lose?
The time has come to choose
If you want to blow up first you gotta light the fuse
Pack up the trailer, its half past four
middle of the night and we're goin on tour
clutching our hopes manifesting our dreams
we hit the road nine deep
in our hearts a candle is flickering
we have arrived and our pulses are quickening
enter the Boardwalk and pump up the gain
tear off the roof and set it aflame
CHORUS 1
We've come so far now we're raising the bar
got these guitars and we'll show you our scars
we've got something to say will you see it our way?
we came to play bonwill it please you today?
BRIDGE
Now (X4)
VERSE 2
Load up the gear and crash on the floor
come morning time we'll be out for more
back on the road between snow covered hills
we do it for the fans and not the dollar bills
its a new Oasis and they're smokin inside
Reno, Nevada is now where we reside
universes collide between checkered shirts and rawhide
Skankin away in a dancehall saloon
under the glow of a wood crescent moon
me and Annette, we know how to dance
get on the floor and don't tell me you can't
CHORUS 2
BREAKDOWN
The bonds have been forged
and they just won't be broken
the gas has been burned
and the words have been spoken
the stage has been set
and we'll never be the same
VERSE 2
two nights left time to rock Santa Cruz
the Catalyst is flooded with people and booze
the pit is spinnin round and round and round and round and round and round and
round we go up to Petaluma
open your ears and let our sounds go through ya
one last night at the Holiday Inn
before we head home again
Pat kicks back with a bottle of Jack
While Big Daddy Max takes a well deserved nap
The theatres are empty, the curtains are closed
We just wanted you to know that…
CHORUS 3
OUTRO
Please you today, now (X4)
