it's about how, after spending 12 months in the snow & rain & clouds of winter, i went to california with some pretty full-on hippies & finally saw the sun, & it was pretty nice.
lyrics
shaman says hold your hand on your heart, but don't be fooled by another, stretch yr arms rawhide, throw yrself to the wind, & wiv yr sails move astern to the end of the earth.
& if the moon intimidates, just move into the city, you can scrape at the sky all you like - shaman says it's no good, but that's just san mateo in the sun (san mateo in the sun), 12 months of winter but - low & behold - my sailin' arms are in the sun for once!
soulless solstice, soulless solstice, seemingly endless, insufferable, relentless - soulless solstice, but we're still in this.
& if the moon intimidates, just move into the city - slink into the rush hour train, sink into anonymity.
& if the stars are oh too far, you won't see past the clouds.
bless this blasted CBD, yr out of san mateo now.
soulless solstice, soulless solstice, seemingly endless, insufferable, relentless - soulless solstice, but we're still in this.
