lyrics

Everybody's waiting for me to say something like Elvis would say when he decided to go to the fucking army.

Too bad the blues only came from the south. The people up north never really appreciated it. Till Elvis showed up on fucking tv.

Oh, beach music. It can be so fucking frustrating. Laid back type of grooves.

Unorthodox editing leads to multiple versions and retakes.

What's your description of it? How do you break the thing down? Do you discuss the visual aspect or the audio? Do you think about it over your coffee on a sunday morning newpaper read?

Talk about it with your friends at the bar.

Oh, if only life had a special effects button. You could leap cars over buildings, make jumps you otherwise wouldn't make.

But that would somehow require a leap of faith.

And if you don't got one, then you ain't got shit.
