Earthquakes

[Platinum Greenwich 13,845]

Earthquakes happen regularly down in California

Walls shake, but I don't move, I put the record on and enjoy it

I dance, dancin' in my underwear, I let the 70s rock and roll me

Laurel Canyon, can you feel my power?

Overdose on opium, yeah

 

Just say I've gone crazy

I don't know what's overcome me

Just say you're my baby, but

I'm feeling tired and I think I'm done, yeah

 

You can say what you really want

You can say what you really think

Just say goodbye to the sweet Pacific

Goodbye to your lonely queen

 

Earthquakes happen naturally down in California

Walls shake, but I don't give a shit, 'cuz dying's better for ya

Fuck life, everything here sucks, there's no music anymore, yeah

I pray that he takes me in

The next big 9.4, yeah

 

Just say I've gone crazy

I don't know what's overcome me

Just say you're my baby, but

I'm feeling tired and I think I'm done, yeah

 

You can say what you really want

You can say what you really think

Just say goodbye to the sweet Pacific

Goodbye to your lonely queen

 

Shimmy shimmy, ko-ko-bop

Jimmy, Jimmy, rock

Jimmy, I don't give a fuck

Shimmy shimmy, rock

Shimmy shimmy, ko-ko-bop

Shimmy shimmy, rock

Jimmy, all I, all I want

Give it to me, yeah

 

Just say I've gone crazy

I don't know what's overcome me

Just say you're my baby, but

I'm feeling tired and I think I'm done, yeah

 

You can say what you really want

You can say what you really think

Just say goodbye to the sweet Pacific

Goodbye to your lonely queen

 

Shimmy shimmy, ko-ko-bop

Jimmy, Jimmy, rock

Jimmy, I don't give a fuck

Shimmy shimmy, rock

Shimmy shimmy, ko-ko-bop

Shimmy shimmy, rock

Jimmy, all I, all I want

Give it to me, yeah

The next benign point-four, yeah

I think she’s saying “I pray that he takes me in the next big 9.4” aka “I hope I die in the next big earthquake” ..

[Deadly Nightshade 12,849]

It's so crazy to me that she reused that part

The next 9.4 (referring to earthquake magnitude)

I feel like you can actually hear her enunciate "shimmy shimmy ko-ko-bop" as opposed to A&W - but we've already established I'm hard of hearing, so

I totally agree with you, and also on A&W I clearly hear Jimmy, Shimmy, to me she doesn’t sing Jimmy, Jimmy like she said. But she’s the one who done it so ig she knows better

this may actually become one of my fav unreleased

[Alison by Slowdive 26,146]

[honeybadger 40,620]

[blackenedrussianpoetry 2,424]

Very 70s Fleetwood Mac… spiritual galore

[HeadBitch 6,674]

The way this song is literally "Wayamaya" Part 2... She was recording it with Barrie, but had Steven Mertens on her mind. Even the high-pitch Lizzy Grant vocals came out.

 

"He was a big wave surfer livin' down by Waimea Bay" / "Just say goodbye to the sweet Pacific"

"Waikiki cove, Waikiki cove" / "Shimmy shimmy, ko-ko-bop"

In her Inrockuptibles interview she says she's had this line in mind since her relationship with Barrie

so I think SHE leaked it
