Music Monday: Shotgun by George Ezra

Music Monday is a meme that was created by Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek. Bjørn and I will pick a song alternatively on each Monday and share our thoughts about them. Timy’s pick this week is Shotgun by George Ezra.

Summer well and truly kicked in the door and not just because of the weather. School ended, the last tasks are about to carried out and my work hours got reduced for the next few months which is always a nice bonus. So this week I wanted to pick something summery and Spotify gladly obliged as Shotgun came up this morning on my way to work. It’s an excellent road trip song by George Ezra. It’s too bad I have nothing of the sort planned for various reasons. 1) I don’t have a car. 2) I don’t have a driver’s licence. 3) My summer will be about packing, moving and then unpacking. Plus, the last time I planned to go on a road trip, I ended up in the hospital just like a week before. So maybe it’s not in my destiny. I’ll have to be content with kicking my feet back and listening to some good music.

Home grown alligator, see you later
Gotta hit the road, gotta hit the road
Something changed in the atmosphere, architecture unfamiliar
I could get used to this

Time flies by in the yellow and green
Stick around and you’ll see what I mean
There’s a mountain top that I’m dreaming of
If you need me, you know where I’ll be

I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone
I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone

Well, South of the Equator, navigator
Gotta hit the road, gotta hit the road
And deep sea diving round the clock
Bikini bottoms, lager tops
I could get used to this

Time flies by in the yellow and green
Stick around and you’ll see what I mean
There’s a mountain top that I’m dreaming of
If you need me, you know where I’ll be

I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone
I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone

We got two in the front, two in the back
Sailing along and we don’t look back
(Back, back, back-back-back, back-back-back)

Time flies by in the yellow and green
Stick around and you’ll see what I mean
There’s a mountain top that I’m dreaming of
If you need me, you know where I’ll be

I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone
I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone

I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone
I’ll be riding shotgun underneath the hot sun
Feeling like a someone, a someone, a someone, a some…
