Wez Traylor rocks! One day he ate pot brownies and called Zack and called Seth like 3 times telling them he wanted to start a band. Seth said cool but only if they toured and recorded all the time so that's what they're doing now.
They have songs about eating drugs and white people and various other subjects.
December 2012 is not the end of the world but is in fact when Keith Richards is gonna tell the world that the Rolling Stones are stepping down and Natural Child is the new best band in the world.
It's A Shame My Store Isn't Open
Natural Child Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're using your feet
LSD
When you look at your hand
You look at your hand
LSD
When you look at the man
Who is that man
The lyrics of Natural Child's song "It's A Shame My Store Isn't Open" seem to be inspired by the psychedelic experience of LSD. The repeated phrase "LSD" emphasizes this theme and suggests a sense of disorientation or confusion. The song evokes the sense of walking down the street and seeing the world through altered perception, seeing a stranger as an unfamiliar "man" rather than simply a passerby.
The chorus "It's a shame my store isn't open" is a reference to the feeling of wanting to share this altered state with others but not being able to, or perhaps a metaphor for feeling like one's true self or inner world is inaccessible to others. This feeling was common among participants in the countercultural movement of the 1960s who experimented with LSD and other psychedelics as a means of expanding their consciousness and challenging societal norms.
Overall, the lyrics of "It's A Shame My Store Isn't Open" convey the sense of the psychedelic experience as a both a liberating and isolating experience, evoking the spirit of experimentation and exploration of the era.
