Dylan, fresh from N.Z. and not yet 18, was on the streets with his guitar and crack pipe busking for coin outside the pub. “We met him,” Paddy says, “when the Coopers Arms bouncer started hassling us to give the dude money".
Since then the band have spent their time re-fining and re-defining their sound, a mega-hectic, psychedelic, reggae that’ll have you trading your flat screen for a ticket to ride, surrendering your dignity to your urges, throwing shapes around rooms with people you’ve never met.
The Sticky sound is doused in textural, psyche-y and atmospheric melodies that push out the S.F. rhythm section’s blunt soundscapes.
Gold Snafu
Sticky Fingers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't take me just a fool
Won't you just stay the fuck out of my way
Faking smiles and acting all the cool
From the sidelines to the front wide
I still be saving up for them new shoes
All the while I'll be wishing it's alright
I see the sunrise getting high
I wish I was next to you
So coming down it's alright
Stumble through your gold snafu
Yeah, for the first time in my life
I seen them velvet skies
And all that hurt was froze in ecstasy
I teach you how to fly
Forever's overthrown
And everybody comes alive
It's as simple as it's sold
And sexy as a slippery water slide
I see the sunrise getting high
I wish I was next to you
So coming down it's alright
Stumble through your gold snafu
I see the sunrise getting high
I wish I was next to you
So coming down it's alright
Stumble through your gold snafu
So coming down it's alright
Stumble through your gold snafu
The lyrics to Sticky Fingers' song "Gold Snafu" describe the struggle of trying to make it in the music industry and dealing with people who don't take it seriously.

As the song progresses, the lyrics shift to a more optimistic tone, with the singer expressing a desire to be near someone they care about and reveling in the beauty of the world around them. The reference to "velvet skies" suggests a sense of wonder and awe, while the image of hurt being "froze in ecstasy" hints at a desire to escape from pain and find happiness.
The chorus repeats the desire to be with someone and experience the joy of being alive, with the idea of stumbling through a "gold snafu" perhaps representing the idea that life can be confusing and uncertain, but that it's still worth navigating.
Overall, "Gold Snafu" captures the highs and lows of striving for success and trying to find meaning and happiness in a world that often seems chaotic and unpredictable.

The concept of forever is challenged
And everybody comes alive
People come alive when they let go of their inhibitions

Things are often simpler than they appear
And sexy as a slippery water slide
The simple things in life can be enticing
So coming down it's alright
It's okay to return to reality
Stumble through your gold snafu

@JayFFAFAlesanaES
@@guilhermeflores385 The best way to love is appreciating those around us but being open to the idea that one day they may no longer be there. Hard times, but remember the good experiences and let out a smile for your brother, it's the best you can do. Much love, distant friend. X
