The Red Hot Chili Peppers Deep Kick Lyrics

It started when we were little kids
Free spirits but already tormented by our own hands
Given to us by our parents
We got together and wrote on desks and slept in laundry rooms near snowy mountains
And slipped through whatever cracks we could find
Minds altered, we didn't falter
In portraying hysterical and tragic characters in a smog filled universe
We loved the dirty city
And the journeys away from it
We had not yet been or seen our friends, selves chase tails 'round and 'round in downward spiral
Leaving a trail of irretrievable vital life juice behind
Still the brothersbloodcomradespartnerfamilycuzz was impenetrable
And we lived inside it laughing with no clothes
And everything experimental 'til death was upon us
In our face mortality
And lots of things seemed futile then
But love and music can save us and did
While the giant grey monster grew more poisoned and volatile around us
Jaws clamping down and spewing ugly s___ around
Nothing is the same
So we keep moving.
We keep moving.

Ooooooh, s___!
Ooooooh, s___!

Went off and got some hair cuts
Lookin' wild and got all drugged up
Hopped a train into the night
Got a ride with a transvestite
Two boys in San Francisco
Two boys in San Francisco
Blasted off in a BART bathroom
Those coppers woke us up
m_________ers woke us up

Two young brothers on a hover craft

Telepathics love and belly laughs

Storm the stage of Universal
Slim shine talk box so subversal
Papa's proud and so he sent us
Pounding hearts full and relentless
Two boys in London, England
Two boys in London, England
Climbing out of hostel windows
Wearing gear so out but in though
Come on kid and do the no no

Two young brothers on a hover craft

Telepathics, love and belly laughs

Ooooooh, s___!
Ooooooh, s___!

We went to Fairfax High School
Jumped off buildings into their pools
We'd sit down, grease at Canters
Run like hell cuz they can't catch us
Two boys in L.A. proper
Two boys in L.A. proper
Stealin' anything that we could
Gotta sneak into the Starwood
Gotta peak into the deep good

I remember
10 years ago in Hollywood
We did some good
And we did some real bad stuff
But the b___hole Surfers said,
"It's better to regret something you did
Than something you didn't do"
Yeah, we were young
But we were lookin, lookin', lookin' for the deep kick...
Yeah, seen 'em come, seen 'em go
