Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up, get up, get up and jump

Jump on up, jump on down
Just jump, a jump, a jump, a jump, a jump around
Jump the day away, jump all over town
'Causes jumpin' is okay in a jumpin' kinda way, hey

Jump a boy, jump a girl, jump a rope, jump for joy
Just don't stop jumpin', keep your heart muscle pumpin'
Hillel be jumpin' on that little baby frumpkin say what, you got a pumpkin in your pants?

When you're just standing or sitting still
Think about the frogs gettin' a thrill
Take a little lesson from the kangaroos
Don't you know they're jumpin' foos, jump you

Jump a nun, jump a Jack, jump for fun, jump back
How's about us jumpin' in the sack and now, it's time for a jump attack

Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump

Jam Bob, Jim Bob, slim Bob boogie
To the tune of slima Billy, lookin' like you're mighty silly
(Say what) you got a pumpkin in your pants (say what) you got a pumpkin in your pants?

Mister Mexican jumpin' bean knows his fun is sqeaky clean
Christ, how'd ya think that he got so clean?
Not from sittin' on his goddamn spleen, get up

Oh, I be jumpin', I be jumpin', I be jumpin' alone
I be jumpin' for the phone I be jumpin' Missus Jones
I really wanna jump on Kinski's bones

Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump

Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump
Get up and jump, get up and jump

Jam Bob, Jim Bob, slim Bob boogie to the tune of slima Billy, lookin' like you're mighty silly
(Say what) you got a pumpkin in your pants (say what) you got a pumpkin in your pants?

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
