Surfs Up Baby
02:36

I've got the board and the Trans-AM
Left the pick-up back at the ranch.
You and me baby, we're gonna paddle out.
Straight through the breakers, out in to calmer water,
I know I'll make it back, will you?
Come on
Watch out for the riptide
And the undertow
Now I'm threading water.
I'm afloat out of fear.
There's weird fishy things swimming 'round my ankles.
Back in the swell, I know I'll make it back,
Neck deep, head first.
Come on
Watch out for the riptide
And the undertow
If you want it
Come and get it.
Like it's going out of style, sugar.
We are surfing, we are surfing
on the waves of success.
If you want it
Come and get it.
Like it's going out of style, child.
We are drowning, we are drowning
in the pool of excess.
Now surfs up baby
(Give it to me)
Now Surfs up baby
(Not your baby)
Now surfs up baby,
Now Surfs up.
If you want it
Come and get it.
Like it's going out of style, sugar.
We are surfing, we are surfing
on the waves of success.
If you want it
Come and get it.
Like it's going out of style, child.
We are drowning, we are drowning
in the pool of excess.

She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, down down down.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, going all over town.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, down down down.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, going all over town.
She's spreading it around
In fractals, in town
In the places, in the ghosts you inhabit.
Hey baby come fly with me
See the universe it's all in "threes"
Hey baby come fly with me
Come fly, come fly.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, down down down.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, going all over town.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, down down down.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, going all over town.
She's spreading it around
Like a virus, in town
In the ghosts in places you inhabit
Was the game she kept on playing
Play to win no matter what the cost
Was the game she kept on losing
Don't try, don't try.
"We're in a really bad state of affairs right now
In the absence of capital, you are irrelevant
and when you look at the most successful people
who operate in these tentacles,
they have built a network of influence based on capital,
that has has been compounding for decades
That is genius.
If you feed the beast,
that beast will destroy you.
If you push back on it
We have a chance to control and reign it in.
The short-term dopamine driven feedback loops that we have created
are destroying how society works.
No civil discourse
No co-operation.
Misinformation
Mistruth
It really is a point now, where I think we have created tools that are ripping apart the social fabric of how society works.
That is truly where we are."

She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going, down down down.
She looks so hot when she plays for me
She keeps the beat going
Keeps the beat going
Keeps the beat going
Keeps the beat going
Keeps the beat going
Keeps the beat going

C'mon now sit right over here
These dusty plains go on for years.
I know your name, you've travelled far.
More used to pearls and caviar.
Live Life in a happy daze
Tag me once relive it again
So long these hashtag moments
Tag me twice, relive it again.
Come now sit right over here.
The dust can't hide the tracks of tears.
Open up to me in this one horse bar.
There beneath the lonesome star.
Try hard this X/Y age
Censor me, the jokes on you
Go and buy the world you live in
Always posting, underachieving
Sitting on the bridge
Watch the son swallow stars
Again, again.
What a way to live, breaking ground
breaking sound
Again, again.
Look around it's a game you're playing
pause to save it,
never gaining.
You'll never make it your own
Unfriend me baby i've a hundred more
Likes
Sitting on the bridge
Watch the son swallow stars
Again, again.
What a way to live, breaking ground
breaking sound
Again, again.
Turn away from the enemy.
The sun is gone.
Turn away from the enemy.
The sky is gone.

Black Summer Days

It always ends up this way
Summers just begun
Now it's time to speak plainly
Things said and done.
You always said you'd take off,
Now here's your chance
Don't follow me to autumn,
Shadows getting long.
In my head
It's okay
In my head
Black Summer Days
Make time to see you baby,
Summer almost done
Sit and talk in the shade now maybe
In the evenings drone.
We talk like it's not over
Things left unsaid
Third time's a charm now baby
The sky is crashing down.
In my head
It's okay
In my head
Black Summer Days
But nothing really works out that way.
No conversation
No one speaking
No conversation
No one listening
No conversation
Nobody cares
No conversation
No one listening
A detour of nature,
I lack the will,
of science and reason, I
I'm made to kill, celestial stars,
Celestial.
In my head
It's okay
In my head
Black Summer Days
