Dumbo Sun
Dumbo Sun's Radiance: A Nostalgic Journey through Brooklyn Days
Lyrics
As we play in the Dumbo sun
Engaging in activities under the sun in Dumbo.
We feel the love for everyone
Experiencing a sense of love and connection with everyone.
Days burn down in the Dumbo sun
Passing time under the sun in Dumbo.
We got off we got off we got off we got off
Repetition emphasizes the act of "getting off."
There was a man in a yellow thong
Describing a man in a yellow thong engaged in incorrectly practiced yoga.
He was doing his yoga and doing it wrong
Highlighting the man's mistake in yoga.
Down under the bridge for all to see
Location under a bridge where the man is visible to all.
He got off he got off he got off he got off
Repetition emphasizes the man "getting off."
Yeah, how I miss those days more than a little
Expressing nostalgia for the past, particularly enjoyable days.
Growing young in the Dumbo sun
Recalling youthful experiences in Dumbo under the sun.
Me and Jo tried to change the world
Attempting to make a positive impact on the world.
But the world wasn't listening to two Brooklyn girls
Facing challenges in being heard as two Brooklyn girls.
So we started a band and we banged up our knees
Turning to music, forming a band despite obstacles.
We got off we got off we got off we got off
Repetition emphasizes the act of "getting off."
Life wouldn't take us too seriously
Not being taken seriously by life.
So we sang on the subway and sang out of key
Singing on the subway with a lack of musical precision.
To the isle of Manhattan promiscuously
Moving to Manhattan with a carefree attitude.
We got off we got off we got off we got off
Repetition emphasizes the act of "getting off."
Yeah, how I miss those days more than a little
Expressing continued nostalgia for enjoyable past days.
Growing young in the dumbo sun
Reflecting on growing young in Dumbo under the sun.
Washington slept here a tree it can grow here and I
Referencing historical figures and pondering size and sleeplessness.
Grow smaller and sleepless so high
Describing a sense of growing smaller and being sleepless.
Circling and Circle - Line skies
Referencing the Circle Line in the sky.
Willowing wondering why if
Pondering and questioning the reasons behind experiences.
Tiffany's breakfast was mine?
Posing a question about ownership of Tiffany's breakfast.
Ask Truman Capote Truman Capote Truman Capote
Referring to Truman Capote repeatedly.
And all of my homies
Mentioning friends or acquaintances.
Yeah, how I miss those days more than a little
Reiterating the longing for past enjoyable days.
Growing young in the dumbo sun
Reflecting on the experience of growing young in Dumbo under the sun.
