In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
i need that green
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that surge to help me get loose
i need that surge
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that green to help me get loose
i said its 2 in the am
and ive been grinding on dreamweaver all through the day yea
i remember way back in 9d9
when i could code all night (code all night)
down south they be dranking that purple sprite
but my lean is green and we call it surge
cant even put that in to words
my potion caffiene ocean
there was no bawls and there was no bull
just dew and jolt to keep your tank full
then a citrus blast hit - fantastic
had me jittering like an ultra spastic
now i need to get my fix with a mix
of the vk and the red
but surge alone was all i needed
for me to hack things
mack things carry back things
i need that green
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that surge to help me get loose
i need that surge
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that green to help me get loose
surge was the key to my success
cuz i never used to rest used to blast invest
my time in coding sleep eroding loading lists
with a two liter in my fist
im pissed
i need to be reunited
with my elixir i cannot fight it
that long lost love and i cannot hide it (surge)
drinks these days dont have that punch
now i gotta drink 7up for lunch
whats up with that? need energy
like megaman im mega teed
without my surge im lost to sleep
im just another tired isajeep
so bring it back lets save the surge
1 800 get coke for all the nerds
i need that green
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that surge to help me get loose
i need that surge
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that green to help me get loose
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that surge to help me get loose
i need that surge
that hocus pocus focus juice
dont need no fo or a deuce
just need that green to help me get loose
i said its 2 in the am
and ive been grinding on dreamweaver all through the day yea
i remember way back in 9d9
