Foster the People

Baru-baru ini, aku telah jatuh hati pada sebuah band yang aku tak tahupun kewujudannya..

FOSTER THE PEOPLE

Sebuah band indie yang berasal dari Los Angeles, California. ditubuhkan pada tahun 2009..

Aku dapat tahu band ini ketika menerokai youtube tanpa sebarang tujuan. Lagunya yang bertajuk Pumped Up Kick sangat menarik hati dan nurani. Liriknya sangat menarik kerana ia menceritakan seorang budak kecil bernama Robert yang tidak mendapat perhatian dari keluarga dan menjadi gila lalu mengambil senapang bapanya dan menembak kawan-kawan di sekolah. Tapi, kalau ceritanya begitu, kenapa muziknya berbunyi gembira???

Entahlah..

Walaupun liriknya sedikit pelik, muziknya sangat sedap didengar.. try it..

Pumped Up Kicks


Robert's got a quick hand.
He'll look around the room, he won't tell you his plan.
He's got a rolled cigarette, hanging out his mouth he's a cowboy kid.
Yeah he found a six shooter gun.
In his dads closet hidden in a box of fun things, and I don't even know what.
But he's coming for you, yeah he's coming for you.

[Chorus x2:]
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

Daddy works a long day.
He be coming home late, yeah he's coming home late.
And he's bringing me a surprise.
'Cause dinner's in the kitchen and it's packed in ice.
I've waited for a long time.
Yeah the slight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger,
I reason with my cigarette,
And say your hair's on fire, you must have lost your wits, yeah.

[Chorus x2:]
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

[Whistling]

[Chorus x3:]
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.
