Accueil  💃🎤 Paroles de chanson Française et Internationnales

I know this song sounds like a 70´s TV Show theme
Maybe because me and the guy who are playing it are 49 and 53
Maybe we watched a lot of Welcome Back, Kotter and maybe we watched a lot of Sanford and Son

Maybe we watched a lot of Three´s Company or Family Ties or maybe a lot of Brady Bunch or whatever that one was with the re-runs

Aw man, who didn´t want to get down with Marsha Brady?
Suzanne Somers or Valerie Bertinelli
Or Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson, or Jaclyn Smith
Nobody watched Charlie´s Angels without having a favorite pick

All I know is this reminds of the theme to Barney Miller
It wasn´t intentional, just adding a song on the record for filler
Maybe this song will cause you to have a wet dream
Maybe this song will cause you to connect with an actual human being

And maybe you´ll hear this song when the sun is up
Maybe you´ll hear it when you´re down in the dumps
Maybe you´ll hear it on a Spotify stream
Your girlfriend´ll say, "Eww, you actually like this shit?"
Break it off with you and leave
Or maybe you´ve already turned this song off
Or maybe you´re playing it and going, "Check this out, boss."

Maybe you can´t relate to this song
Maybe you´re a millennial and you don´t know the references at all
Maybe you´ll hear it and say, "I prefer your older songs."
Or maybe the world has changed and I´m not that songwriter anymore

Sitting around, moping about the hardships of being twenty-four (being twenty-four)
I´ve heard old that stuff, that´s great, and it´s available at the Amazon store (the Amazon store)
If you like those steel-string guitar sounds and those old slow beats (those old slow beats)
That´s cool, but be careful when you´re walking across the street (across the street)
With those headphones in those inner cities (the inner city)
A car might hit you, you might get mugged by a thief and you´ll wish that you had a clue (you had a clue)
Or you might fall asleep playing this album in the background
Thinking okay (?), this is a pretty nice sound (pretty nice sound)

And then maybe by the time it´s about two or three (two or three)
You´ll find yourself deep asleep, having a trippy dream

Just back from L.A. where I recorded vocals to the "Seventies" track
You can tell I spent a really long time on the lyrics, right?
I spent months on those, thank you
Anyhow, it´s a beautiful spring day in San Francisco
And just as I sat down to take a breath, I heard something crash in my hall
I walked over and part of the ceiling fell off
And I was like, "Jesus fucking Christ, can´t I get a fucking break?"
So I texted my building manager and she said a guy would be over to look at it

He came over to check it out and all of things I ended up hiring him to redo my bathroom
I´ve been in the building for twenty-two years and it´s time for some new scenery in there
I told him I wanted a white tile with gray veins
My building manager warned me that he was colorblind
So I pointed to a marble top stand that´s gray and white
He said, "That´s brown."
I said, "No, man, that´s gray
You know? Like your hair, man. Gray."
He laughed and said, "Okay, okay."
I said, "Hey, I got a little gray too. I´m not picking on you. But please just tell the guy at Home Depot gray and let them pick the color."
Fingers crossed that he gets it right

It was a long weekend and I went to bed and I just woke up from a long sleep
I dreamed I was invited to Farrah Fawcett´s house
It was a big, beautiful house somewhere in California
There were maybe ten people there, none of whom I knew
Though Farrah was older, she looked just liked she did in Charlie´s Angels
And she was kind and a wonderful host
Her house was enormous with lots of glass and light
And a nice open living room
I took a walk outside and all the land around our house was rolling hills leading to the Pacific Ocean
The land looked something like a cross between Monterey, Carmel, Big Sur, and Point Reyes

With beautiful orange flowers for days and days
The ocean was off in the distance a bit but I walked down there
And when I got the ocean, it wasn´t the ocean anymore
But a river
There were two couples fishing who didn´t appear to know what they were doing
One of the girls said she caught a fish but was struggling to reel it in
I offered to help and she gave me the pull and warned me that the gear had been rented
The line seemed like it was snagged on something
As I was pulling, I noticed a small boat floating towards us
Holy fuck, her hook was caught on a small boat and I was reeling the boat in
I didn´t know why I didn´t think to cut the line

I guess it was sort of fun catching a boat and everyone was laughing
When the boat finally got to the shore
It crashed fairly hard onto a dock
But not too hard
Of all things, a few people were inside
I entered the boat to discuss the damage with them
They laughed and said not to worry about it
That the fishing pole probably took more of a beating than the boat
I thanked them and when I jumped off the boat the girl looked petrified
I said, "Aw, god, I´m really sorry to tell you this but the boat owners want to sue. They said there´s quite a lot of damage in there, many of their belongings as well as the motor and some damage to the back of the boat."

She began sobbing and I immediately hugged her and said, "Nah, nah, I´m just kidding. It´s okay, there´s no damage. They´re super nice people and they even offered to give you a new fishing pole if yours was damaged."
She said, "Aw, god," she took a deep breath, then she said, "Let´s just get the fuck out of here."
