Name: JOY RIDE
Duration: P00H03M20S
Description: “JOY RIDE” is an 80s inspired RnB/Funk/Pop song & our most ambitious to date. It’s now quite common for artists to try too hard to have overly deep meanings to songs, we just wanted to put out a song that people could have fun when listening to & not to think too much about its lyrics. Essentially, it’s about car sex.

lyrics

She said it was her first time
Being taken for a joy ride
She said I made her feel right
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
And that I fill her up with sunshine

Now just freeze
Baby
I can see you’re falling
See you’re falling for me
I’ll leave
But we both know how it could be

You and me
And me
We make a really good team
Don’t you see
You see
That you should joy ride with me
It’s ecstasy, yeah

I can’t keep it together
Ooh, no, no
You’re grabbing on me
And you’re telling me I better hold you down
Don’t make a sound
‘Cause public is not a place to be found

Just freeze
Baby
I can see you’re falling
See you’re falling
For me
I’ll leave
But we both know how it could be

You and me
And me
We make a really good team
Don’t you see
You see
That you should joy ride with me
It’s ecstasy, yeah

You should joy ride with me

You say you’re down
Down to work your body
Intertwining bodies
With me
And then you pull me into reach

You and me
And me
We make a really good team
Don’t you see
You see
That you should joy ride with me
It’s ecstasy

You should joy ride with me
