Rockaway Beach
DJ Leao/Natalie Renoir Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The sun is out and I want some
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Up on the roof and out on the street
Out in the playground the hot concrete
Bus ride
They blast out the disco on the radio
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
So we can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Chewin' at a rhythm on my bubble gum
The sun is out and I want some
It's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Up on the roof and out on the street
Out in the playground the hot concrete
Bus ride
is too slow
They blast out the disco on the radio
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
Rock Rock, Rockaway Beach
So we can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
So we can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
So we can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
So we can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
The song "Rockaway Beach" by DJ Leao and Natalie Renoir is clearly an homage to the popular New York tourist spot. The lyrics describe a desire to escape the city heat and enjoy a relaxing day at the beach. The first stanza sets the scene with the image of someone chewing gum and wanting to enjoy the sun. The second stanza describes the various locations where this person is, including the rooftop, the street, and the playground. The third stanza discusses how the radio is playing disco music, and the chorus repeats the title phrase, emphasizing the desire to get to the beach.
The song is a fast-paced, fun tune that compels the listener to get up and dance, mirroring the energy and urgency of the lyrics. The use of repetition in the chorus and throughout the song enhances the song's catchy hooks and memorable melody. It's a classic example of punk rock's simple but effective songwriting.
Overall, "Rockaway Beach" captures the spirit of summer adventure and freedom, evoking a sense of excitement and joy. It's a mood-lifting song that makes you want to put on your sunglasses and head out to the beach.
