Jon Porobil feat. Cybronica - Couches (SHADOW)

from SpinTunes 21 Round 2 by Spintunes

/

about

We begin in D major with the first chorus. Switch to G mixolydian (or maybe just major with a borrowed chord?) for the verse. Then back to D major for the chorus. Then back to G for an instrumental. Then back to D major until the end of the song.

lyrics

[Cybronica:]
Some day you’ll run out of
Couches you can surf on
Friends you once relied on
Will stop taking your calls

[Jon:]
I’m not preoccupied with reading minds
Or gossip of the neighborhood
Yes, I hear all of your ticked-off talking
But I’m getting while the getting’s good

There's only so many days we can dance away

[Cybronica:]
Some day you’ll run out of
Couches you can surf on
Friends you once relied on
Will stop taking your calls

You know it’s a gamble
Barbed wire and razor
Start putting out fires
Or don’t set them at all

[Jon:]
I’m gonna crack my neck
I’m gonna crack my fingers
I’m gonna pour a little hair of the dog
And time how long the soreness lingers

‘Cuz a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch
A couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch

[Both:]
A couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch
A couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch is a couch

[Cybronica, while bridge refrain continues:]
Some day you’ll run out of
Couches you can surf on
The friends you once relied on
Will stop taking your calls

You know it’s a gamble
Barbed wire and razor
Start putting out fires
Or don’t set them at all
