Freelance Whales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our limbs have been asleep we need to get the blood back in 'em
We're finding every day several ways that we could be friends
We keep on churning and the lights inside the house turned on
And in our native language we are chanting ancient songs
And when we quiet down the house chants on without us
The lyrics of Generator ^ First Floor by Freelance Whales seem to be about a group of people who work hard every day to generate electricity for their community using a generator. They wake up early in the morning to start the generator, as their limbs are numb from the previous day's work. However, they keep going and find different ways to stay connected with each other, becoming friends in the process.
As they work, they sing ancient songs in their native language, creating a sense of community and tradition. Even when they stop, the generator continues to hum on its own, reminding them of the hard work they are putting in to keep their community going. The song seems to be a celebration of the power of hard work, community, and the importance of maintaining traditions.
Line by Line Meaning
We get up early just to start cranking the generator
We wake up early to begin producing energy.
Our limbs have been asleep we need to get the blood back in 'em
Our bodies are tired and we need to get moving.
We're finding every day several ways that we could be friends
We discover new ways to connect and form relationships every day.
We keep on churning and the lights inside the house turned on
We continue to work and create energy, illuminating the inside of our home.
And in our native language we are chanting ancient songs
We sing traditional songs in our own language.
And when we quiet down the house chants on without us
Even when we stop working and singing, the energy we produced and the light we created continues on in our home.
