lyrics

Aaaah woooo
And it couldn’t be better
Watching the stars tonight
Aaaah woooo
And it couldn’t be better
Counting the satellites

I could be good, I could be bad with you tonight
Holding my hand, tell me everything will be alright
Breathe in the night air as your lips touch mine
Never let go, this is our sacred time

I could be fun, I could get weird with you tonight
Loki and Vega rolling around in the moonlight
Say that you love me, I’ll call you my best friend
Telling me these nights will never have to end

It could be the acid, it could be this tremendous height
The world spread before us like it is our birthright
Specks in the cosmos, we’re lucky to be alive
Amazing that we met at all, amazing that it’s you and I

Drawing inspiration from classic garage, Richard Hell, Devo-style New Wave, ’90s skate punk and more, the tightknit quartet constructs unique sonic worlds, luring listeners with refreshing weirdness even as it violently assaults their eardrums. ... more
