08
The And Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get laid in a lawn chair
Drown in a bathtub
Fill it with cheap beer
I miss new wave
And movies about losing
Or just the parts where its a-okay
See baby I got something right
The world is screaming
I miss new wave
And real intent
Gonna drive to la
Get laid at the rose bowl
Drown in a hot tub, fill it with models
I miss new wave
And hearing the scratches on my long plays
Or just the part that sound OK
See baby I got something right
When the world is screaming
I miss new wave
And real intent
Gonna die in coquitlam
Get laid by a golf course
That I never went to
Well its not a real sport
And Ill miss new wave
And watching you walk away
So go on its OK
See baby I got something right
See baby I got something right
The lyrics to The And Band's song 08 are predominantly concerned with the singer's desire to escape from their current surroundings and find solace in various forms of hedonistic pleasure. The song begins with the line "Going to fly to Hawaii," which suggests a desire to flee to a tropical paradise and enjoy the sun, sea, and sex that the location may offer. The second line, "Get laid in a lawn chair," further emphasizes the singer's preoccupation with sexual gratification and a life of leisure, while the third line, "Drown in a bathtub, fill it with cheap beer," suggests a desire to numb oneself from the stresses of life through alcohol.
Despite the singer's apparent desire to escape their current existence, there is a sense of nostalgia and longing throughout the song. The repeated refrain of "I miss new wave" suggests a fondness for a particular era of music, while the lines "And movies about losing/Or just the parts where it's a-okay" reflect a similar nostalgia for earlier forms of cinema. The lyrics hint at a sense of disillusionment with the present and a desire to return to a more innocent time.
Ultimately, the song suggests a tension between the desire for escape and the inherent impossibility of fully achieving it. The singer's attempts to find solace in Hawaii, LA, or even death are ultimately undercut by a sense of loss and longing that they cannot escape.
