Blew Out The Walls - ALO (Animal Liberation Orchestra)

In a basement filled with instruments

A couple of kids made an attempt

To write the world’s greatest song

Matching words with melodies

Power cords and minor keys

Wondering if anyone would sing along

Well dream it big, little thunder

Time is always on your side

No one knows and so they wonder

If time will pass them by

When the rhythm and soul gets in your blood

The bass drum pulls with a mighty tug

And your mind starts to speculate

From a secret hideout underground

Is the Frankenstein we built out of sound

Really strong enough to bear the weight

Well drop the seats down in the bomber

Somehow we’ll make the pieces fit

No one knows and so they wonder

If this is really it

It sounded like this

Like that

Blew out the walls

And the ceiling collapsed

Filled up my head

Was loud, it was bright

And when everyone heard it, everybody knew

Things were gonna be all right

When I was still a kid, I went with my mom

I knew every word to every song

And we sang like we were at church

In high school, getting crass

Smoking long up on the grass

Afterwards I bought myself a shirt

For a moment the sound was madness

Fear we might have gone inside

But the dancing gnomes on your serape

Brought comfort to my brain

It sounded like this

Like that

It sounded like this

Like that

It blew out the walls

And the ceiling collapsed

Filled up my head

Was loud, it was bright

And when everyone heard it, everybody knew

Things were gonna be all right

Things were gonna be all right

Things were gonna be all right

Things were gonna be all right

It sounded like this

Like that

It blew out the walls

'Cause the bass was so fast

Filled up my head

Was loud, it was bright

And when everyone heard it, everybody knew

Things were gonna be all right

From the dark recesses of your mind

We got a parachute

Gonna be all right

Well all right

From the dark recesses of your mind

Got a parachute

Gonna be all right

From the dark recesses of your mind

Got a parachute

Gonna be all right

From the dark recesses of your mind

Got a parachute

Gonna be all right

From the dark recesses of your mind

Got a parachute

Gonna be all right

When the mood gets heavy

Cymbals crashin'

Don’t know what to do

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'

You just keep on dancin'
