about
Yellow Truck was recorded at Audio Mech Pro Studios & Mastered by Roger Lima of Less Than Jake.
The track is about a particular tour to the Pacific Northwest in which the band found themselves lost at the dead of night in the forest for several hours, were offered acid 30 ft. above ground in netted trees, and several other crazy stories from the road. We hope you enjoy the track! The track debuted on 104.7FM TNN radio the day before its official release and is set to air on several other radio frequencies including Ska Parade, Viva Ska Vegas & more.

lyrics
Lyrics:
When life gets hard and ambition runs thin, sometimes there’s meaning in thinking about nothing
That’s the way I justify the red circles round my eyes & why I over analyze
I got my mind on ready, my body at ease, hiding that bud smell with Hawaiian breeze Febreze
I don’t care what the neighbors say
Smoke cloud so thick it’s starting to give rain
2AM and we barely passed Van Nuys
18 more hours to go looks like we’ll be driving till sunrise
And we won’t stop moving even if we could
Lost for four hours on the way to Punx In The Woods
Met an elk that almost turned us into minced meat, yeah we
Chilled with Tacoma punx up in the trees, oh
We were cruising to Seattle to meet with Mister Blank
With no direction, no care and a quarter tank
Mary won’t you please kiss me goodnight
It’s the only way I can feel right
I don’t think I’m wasting my time, I just plan to live before I die
Like I’m on nonstop holiday everyday
Sitting on my bed with my Jetty & guitar, remembering that cap of psilocybin hiding in the car
Best believe if the scale went from 1-10 I’m at 11, high as heaven listening to Zeppelin
And I don’t really care if I have a bad trip
Kuz if the journeys better than the destination, learn from it
And take it slow
Best ask yourself what you really want to know
Can’t break no bread till you make some dough
Free time don’t exist so let’s go, go, go, oh,
I can see the blue skies so vividly when I open my eyes and forget all the stress that life’s been throwing at me
It’s human nature to do as you please
Uninformed opinions are just like disease to us all
I’m just trying to have a little fun playing music with my friends and traveling like we’re on the run
From Barkingham Palace to Gilman St.
DIY till the day that I die on my feet so,
Mary won’t you please kiss me goodnight
It’s the only way I can sleep tight
I don’t think I’m wasting time, I just plan to live before I die
Kuz it could be our last day on this earth any day
Woooo!
