well it's about time that we made a stand
and started playing together in our own band
and it's about time that we made a promise
well its about time that we made back friends
so we could be together to the very end
and its about time that we got things done
so we could do anything and then have some fun.
we're waiting outside x2
for you to come out tonight x2

The song "Hunger" by Frankie & The Heartstrings is a catchy and upbeat anthem about making a stand and taking action. The lyrics suggest that it's time for the group to come together and start their own band, rather than waiting for something unattainable. They want to make a promise to find a place to call their own that is not in the forest, and they want to reunite with friends so that they can be together until the end. The lyrics also talk about the importance of getting things done and ultimately having fun.
The chorus is simple and repetitive, with the band waiting outside for someone to come out and join them. This could mean that they are waiting for others to join their band or simply waiting for someone to come out and have fun with them. Thus, the lyrics can be interpreted in different ways, but they all share a common thread of taking action and enjoying life.
Overall, "Hunger" is a catchy and energetic song with lyrics that are open to interpretation, encouraging listeners to take action and make changes in their lives. The upbeat tempo and repeated chorus make the song a fun and memorable tune that is sure to get stuck in your head.
