Funk-soul/psychedelic soul, 108 BPM, G minor, warm swaggering mood. Core instrumentation: punchy trombone/trumpet horn stabs, warbly fuzz-wah guitar, thumb-plucked popping funk bass, crisp breakbeat drums with syncopated rim clicks, swirling Leslie-driven Hammond B3, bright clavinet riffs, conga and shaker percussion. Gritty, powerhouse male lead vocals with raw falsetto peaks, call-and-response backing vocals. Lyrics follow a playful, triumphant narrative about ditching a dead-end 9-to-5 grind, chasing late summer twilight mischief with old friends, catching ice cream drips on faded denim, laughing off bill notices, leaning into unplanned joy as block party neon signs flicker to life, leaning into Curtis Mayfield-esque warm everyday poetry, James Brown rhythmic punch, Marvin Gaye soft earnest warmth.
歌詞
[Intro] [Hook] Clocked out early Feelin' mighty pearly Sun is sinkin' low Got nowhere to go [Verse] Tossed my tie away No more bills to pay Boss man yelled my name I just quit the game Sweet cream on my jeans Living past my means Let the paper burn It is my turn [Pre-Chorus] Neon starts to glow Watch the river flow Leave the stress behind Ease your troubled mind [Chorus] We got the fire Higher and higher Dance in the street Feel the heavy funk beat Forget the sad news Shake off all the blues The block is alive We will survive [Post-Chorus] Oh, feel the heat Down on the street Yeah, feel the heat Move your feet [Verse] Danny brought his drum Humming a sweet hum Sarah brought some wine Everything is fine Fender guitar screams Chasing summer dreams Laughter in the dark Sparking up the spark [Pre-Chorus] Neon starts to glow Watch the river flow Leave the stress behind Ease your troubled mind [Chorus] We got the fire Higher and higher Dance in the street Feel the heavy funk beat Forget the sad news Shake off all the blues The block is alive We will survive [Bridge] Golden sun will fade In the cooling shade But the light remains Breaking all our chains Sing it loud and clear Nothing left to fear Hold your brother tight Into the deep night [Chorus] We got the fire Higher and higher Dance in the street Feel the heavy funk beat Forget the sad news Shake off all the blues The block is alive We will survive [Post-Chorus] Oh, feel the heat Down on the street Yeah, feel the heat Move your feet [Outro]
