10,000 Years
Musical Legacy Through Millennia
Lyrics
Me and my friends, we're in a band
Formation of a band with friends
I don't play with no other
Commitment to exclusive collaboration within the band
But my sister, she wants in,
Sister expresses interest in joining the band
And I say yes, because I'm her brother
Agreeing to include sister in the band due to the sibling relationship
So much has come before
Reflecting on the past
So much repeats
Noting patterns and repetitions in life
Some battles lost and won
Acknowledging both victories and defeats in life's battles
But still we stand here
Staying resilient despite challenges
And whatcha doing girl,
Asking about the actions of a girl
Is what is was doing boy,
Highlighting similarity in actions between the girl and the boy
10,000 years ago
Referencing actions from 10,000 years ago, suggesting a timeless connection
My friend, he was on guitar
Specifying a friend's role as a guitarist
On drums was my father
Identifying father's role as a drummer
My sister, she couldn't sing
Noting sister's inability to sing
So we put her on the tambourine
Assigning sister to the tambourine
And whatcha doing girl,
Reiterating the similarity in actions between the girl and the boy
Is what is was doing boy,
Referencing actions from 10,000 years ago, emphasizing continuity
10,000 years ago
Repeating the theme of actions from 10,000 years ago
And whatcha doing girl,
Reiterating the similarity in actions between the girl and the boy
Is what is was doing boy,
Referencing actions from 10,000 years ago, emphasizing continuity
10,000 years ago
Repeating the theme of actions from 10,000 years ago
Ohhhhh
Expressing emotions through vocalization
Ahhhhh
-And whatcha doing girl,
Reiterating the similarity in actions between the girl and the boy
Is what is was doing boy,
Referencing actions from 10,000 years ago, emphasizing continuity
10,000 years ago
Repeating the theme of actions from 10,000 years ago
My other friend, she plays the bass
Introducing another friend who plays the bass
She feels the grooves like nobody else
Highlighting the friend's unique ability to feel the musical grooves
But my sister, she still can't sing
Noting sister's continued inability to sing
And she's lost the god damn tambourine
Indicating the loss of the tambourine by the sister
And whatcha doing girl,
Reiterating the similarity in actions between the girl and the boy
Is what is was doing boy,
Referencing actions from 10,000 years ago, emphasizing continuity
10,000 years ago
Repeating the theme of actions from 10,000 years ago
And whatcha doing girl,
Reiterating the similarity in actions between the girl and the boy

Referencing actions from 10,000 years ago, emphasizing continuity
