Baby town dreamin' on the Fourth of July
Touchin' herself to the stars in the sky
The stars in the sky made her blind, hey
What a ride
Her father's father called him big man when he missed
It's that '50s kinda shit that trickles down to the kids
So we tried giving peace a chance but didn't know what it is
And now we're patiently awaiting for some light to come in
To shake the living hell out of what we became
We're frightened of the old and we're tired of the young
Guess the one-trick ponies got us singin' along "Hey joe"
One, two, one, two, three, four
Some thought about the Ken Burns Vietnam doc
From Pete hunting in the Delta to the last one to drop
To my father and his friends at the Ho-Chi-Min gift shop
They're cryin', "So long, Bobby" on their Jersey shirts
Scared to get behind anything they believe
'Cause they blew the revolution in the '30s
Tryin' to plant some seeds
And yet they're patiently awaiting for some light to come in
To shake the living hell of what it would became
Frightened of the state but too tired to run
Guess these one-trick ponies got singin' along
One, two, one, two, three, four
Hey Joe, what do you know
We're off the bridge and we're out of control
Oh, hey joe, what is it called? Giving up a piece of you to let go
Hey Joe, what do you know way off the bridge all Marylyn Monroe
Giving up a piece of you to let go
The lyrics HEY JOE of BLEACHERS is also present in the album Bleachers (2024)
Bleachers è il progetto musicale indie pop del cantautore statunitense Jack Antonoff, originario di New York. Nato nel 2014, Bleachers ha visto la luce dopo una lunga carriera di Antonoff come produttore discografico e musicista per altri artisti. Prima di dedicarsi a Bleachers, Antonoff era noto per essere stato membro dei Fun., gruppo indie pop con cui ha ottenuto un grande successo negli anni '10, e degli Steel Train, band alternative rock attiva tra gli anni '00 e '10. Con Bleachers, Antonoff esplora sonorità più sintetiche e melodice, influenzate dal synth-pop degli anni '80 e dalla musica dance. Il suo debutto omonimo del 2014 è stato accolto con grande favore dalla critica e ha segnato l'inizio di una carriera di successo per Bleachers. Tra i brani più rappresentativi troviamo "I Wanna Get Better", "Rollercoaster" e "Don't Take the Money". Nel 2017, Antonoff pubblica il secondo album in studio, "Gone Now", che consolida il suo stile musicale e lo posiziona come uno dei cantautori indie pop più influenti del momento.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
