Music of Nowhere Beach

Nowhere Beach Listen. Native drums are sounding Listen. To that Pagan beat Listen. Ocean waves are pounding. Listen… Can you hear it? Hear the, hear the, hear the, hear the The Kraken Watch your back its The Kraken Hide your cash its The Kraken And watch your mouth or you’ll end up in a paddy wagon The Kraken Wear your mask its The Kraken Do the math its The Kraken And watch your tweets or you’ll end up in a paddy wagon Once upon a time you could say what you wanted to say, Now you gotta serve and obey. Once upon a time you could think what you wanted to think, But we saw that good ship sink Some blamed the wall street sharks, some say the whales, Caused life as we knew it to fail. But we gave a name to the beast, and we tried to catch it at least, But it slipped through our teeth. We were those inglorious basterds, chasing the masters While they caused disasters Hell bent on revenge for our kind, but it was all by their design And we were out of our minds. Shot’s what you get when you pursue a trained assassin, The Kraken, the fucking Kraken… And now he’s everlasting. Listen. Native drums are sounding Listen. To that Pagan beat Listen. Ocean waves are pounding. Listen… Can you hear it? Hear the, hear the, hear the, hear the The Kraken Watch your back its The Kraken Hide your cash its The Kraken And watch your mouth or you’ll end up in a paddy wagon The Kraken Wear your mask its The Kraken Do the math its The Kraken And watch your tweets or you’ll end up in a paddy wagon Legend of the island. Legend of the island. Legend of the island. Nowhere Beach Who banned the cure? Who banned talking about the fucking cure? The Kraken. Who killed the truth? Who killed the guy who spoke the fucking truth? The Kraken. Who put us all under house arrest? Who slapped us with a phonebook and made us confess? Who planted the seeds that divided mankind? Then censored our thoughts and fucked with our minds He hears what you say and he reads what you write And even in the day he’ll convince you that it’s night. Every one of his 5 eyes are green And his desire for power makes him mean Seems we’re mesmerised by his power and his size Look into his cold dead eyes As his tentacles squeeze you’ve got nothing to say The Kraken’s what happens when you choose to obey. Listen. Native drums are sounding Listen. To that Pagan beat Listen. Ocean waves are pounding. Listen… Can you hear it? Hear the, hear the, hear the, hear the The Kraken Watch your back its The Kraken Hide your cash its The Kraken And watch your mouth or you’ll end up in a paddy wagon The Kraken Wear your mask its The Kraken Do the math its The Kraken And watch your tweets or you’ll end up in a paddy wagon OUTRO (scratched): Once upon a time you could say, say, say The Kraken’s what happens when you choose to obey Obey, obey, Kraken, Obey, the Kraken Once upon a time you could say what you wanted to say, Choose to obey Obey, obey, obey, obey, obey The Kraken. © Copyright 2022 Russell Interactive.
