Gravelrash
Riding the Asphalt Wave: Unveiling the Meaning of Midnight Oil's Gravelrash
Lyrics
Skating down the street just beware;
Skating down the street, a warning to be cautious;
People dropping dirt bombs everywhere.
People throwing dirt bombs, creating a hazardous environment;
When you smell that asphalt grin
Smelling the asphalt with a grin, suggesting a dangerous pleasure;
And you feel it burn your skin
Feeling the burn of the asphalt on the skin, emphasizing the harsh reality;
Its gravelrash!
Gravelrash! Exclamation of the theme - the experience of gravel rash;
Burning on your ass
Burning sensation on the buttocks, intensifying the discomfort;
Gravelrash.
Repetition of the term "Gravelrash" for emphasis;
stay away from those cheap mopeds
Caution against cheap mopeds, seen as a danger on the road;
Dangerous on the road protect your head
Emphasis on protecting the head while enjoying the sun, beach, and smiles;
Enjoy the sun the beach and the smiles
Encouragement to enjoy life but with awareness;
Beware the sand on the corner arhh!
Warning about sand on the corner, introducing another hazard;
Its Gravelrash!
Reiteration of "Gravelrash," emphasizing the central theme;
Burning my ass
Personal experience of the burning sensation, connecting with the audience;
Gravelrash oh yeah!
Repeating "Gravelrash" with added enthusiasm;
Woo hooo! alright!
Expressive celebration or acknowledgment of the experience;
Gravelrash.
Final mention of "Gravelrash," possibly as a lasting memory;
Thank You Goodnight.
Closing remark with "Thank You Goodnight," suggesting the end of the performance;
