Lederhosen Lucil & DJ P​-​Love - Newspaper Flies

from Apricota Single by Lederhosen Lucil

/

about

One hot summer day DJ P-Love and Lederhosen Lucil got together to write a song inspired by the 80's new wave, surrealism and Krista's fond memories of the film "Revenge of the Nerds." They brought in a few synths including a mini Korg and P-Love was at the producing, co-writing and mixing helm. WUNDERBAR! You're listening to the result of a day's play.

lyrics

I saw breezes of green and buildings of brass
Piles of sand and nothing like grass
There were newspaper flies and teardrop pies
and the antelope birds watched "Revenge of the Nerds"

It was summer and nothing could stop you from having a good time
It was summer spilling your guts and laughing until you cried
Ahhhhh...you were biking along the path where would it lead you?
Ahhhhh...you were biking along until the axel gave out

Would someone stop to pick it up
Would someone stop to pick you up

"Hello! Oh, hello! Oh there you are!"

I saw breezes of green and buildings of brass
Piles of sand and nothing like grass
There were newspaper flies and teardrop pies
and the antelope birds watched "Revenge of the Nerds"

There were some pies
they were not pies
just whipped cream with a fancy disguise
that's what the bird told the antelope herd
Retrospect Monday's with "Revenge of the Nerds"
There were some pies
they were not pies
just whipped cream with a fancy disguise

It was summer and nothing could stop you from having a good time
It was summer spilling your guts and laughing until you cried
Ahhhh...you were driving along the coast where could it lead you?
Ahhhh...you should have the kept the bike that helped you dream

I saw breezes of green and buildings of brass
Piles of sand and nothing like grass
There were newspaper flies and teardrop pies
and the antelope herds watched "Revenge of the Nerds"
