Behind the Song
This is one of a few songs written together on In The Ocean. The lyrics were written in summer '08 on a friend's porch near the corner of 8th and Ocean Ave in Belmar, NJ. After bar-hopping all night, a select crew found their way back to this house and continued to rage.
Key Phrase
"I see the animals, don't feed the animals- you know these cops are social cannibals."
Music and Lyrics
[C F]
Our time, my soul is shaking
Our world is what they're breaking
Downtown, a sanctuary
All night, I got no worries
[G G# G Bb C]
I got a will to get weird but I got no cash
Checked my head stash but it's turned to ash
Once again I contracted the fear
The future's uncertain and the end is near
So go out, blowout, no doubt
Hear a groovy band in a bar to check out
A good beat always takes control
The girls on the floor got the Jersey soul
I cross paths with the man of the night
I'll take one blue, one green, one white
Been up for 24 hours, I've developed super powers
[chorus]
Step outside to catch some air
My move turns into a love affair
Yea, I see the animals, don't feed the animals
You know these cops are social cannibals
They do a drive-by but everything's cool
Dark porch, chill, don't be no fool
About a girl and she's hot for the pool
Ten minutes into a flirtatious dual
So lay down, uptown, downtown
O'd hard enough to make a poor boy drown
Skipping town is the best for us
Gone with the wind, with the wind I'll discuss
...
Yeah we got a lot to talk about, me and the wind
