Groovin' Shadows: The Careless Dance of a Different Crowd
Lyrics
They came around the corner
Encounter with a group coming around the corner
The kind that look uneasy
They appear uneasy or suspicious
Bag in hand
Carrying a bag
One's a twisted man
One person is morally twisted
And his sidekick's just as sleazy
His companion is also untrustworthy
A different kind of foreigner
A different kind of foreigner, possibly with questionable behavior
The type to really get you to
Capable of making one wonder
Wonder how
Leads to questioning how to escape the situation
You'll get out now, but
Expressing concern if they sense you
God forbid they sense you
Emphasizing the importance of avoiding detection
Well true they shouldn't do what they're doing
Acknowledging they shouldn't be doing what they are
But tell me now
Request to explain the perceived problem
What the problem is with the way they're groovin'
Asking about the issue with their behavior
Look at them now
Observing their current state
They're careless and rash
They are careless and reckless
No awareness or class
Lack of awareness or class in their actions
But that's our crowd
Despite flaws, they belong to the same group
Doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
Repetitive doobie-doo-wop, possibly indicating a carefree or nonchalant attitude
A doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
-A doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
-A doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
-As the sun becomes long overdue
Commenting on the overdue sunset
Do you mistake me for a caribou
Questioning if they mistake the speaker for a caribou
As you
Transition
Turn into
Turning into something spineless and cynical
A cynically spineless statue
Transformation into a morally weak state
A different kind of herbivore
Describing a different kind of herbivore
They only pause to ask for more
Pausing only to ask for more
Or they
Believing their gathering has been introduced to some law
Think their soirée's
Thinking their party is exclusive
Been introduced to a law of sorts
Transition
Well true they shouldn't do what they're doing
Reiteration of their inappropriate actions and lack of awareness
But tell me now
-What the problem is with the way they're groovin'
-Look at them now
-They're careless and rash
-No awareness or class
-But that's our crowd
Despite flaws, they belong to the same group
Doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
Repetition of doobie-doo-wop
A doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
-A doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
-A doobie-doobie, a doobie-doo-wop
-I like your fur, you're like the carpet
Complimenting someone's fur but ensuring they are not the target
But don't worry, you are not my target
Reassurance that the listener is not the intended focus
You are not my target
Reiteration that the listener is not the target
You are not my target
-So come with us, we don't really mind it
Invitation to join without objections
We'll show you if you don't really buy it
Offering to show something if not believed
They don't really mind it
Expressing indifference to objections
But don't tell me that you don't wanna try it
Challenging the listener to try something
Let's try it
Suggesting experimentation
