Doing It

by Vocal Few

/

about

"Doing It" emerged as a palate cleanser during the writing of The Classic Crime's "GRIM AGE."

Searching for tonal inspiration I downloaded some new synth patches, and as I was playing around with them this song and mantra surfaced. It did not fit the concept of GRIM AGE, but I felt it was catchy enough to finish the demo and release in a more fitting context as a Vocal Few single.

May it encourage you to keep doing whatever it is you need to do to move forward.

-Matt

lyrics

Raindrops fall on the windshield
We drive out past the cornfields
For the moment everything feels right

I am quiet for a long time
You say what's been on your mind
It feels good just to waste some time

We done wrong to each other
Still there is no one other
I would rather have by my side

One more year on the blue speck
I can't wait to spend it next to you
What we gonna do this time?

Doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
Whatever it is
Whatever it is, we're
Doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
Whatever it is
Whatever it is
Whatever

We've seen so many wonders
Tops of mountains and under
Trees that were three hundred years old

Drove the states on the east coast
Seen the cliffs yeah we got close
Felt the fire and the freezing cold

Did what I had to do to
Build a home and convince you
I would keep away from black holes

But you still let me get so close
You kept our family afloat
While I untethered and let it all go
(Hey, hey)

Doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
Whatever it is
Whatever it is, we're
Doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
Whatever it is
Whatever it is
Whatever

I want summer to go long
Sandcastles and new songs
Waves come and wash it away

One more day, one more day, one more day
We would give anything for just one more day of

Doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
Whatever it is
Whatever it is, we're
Doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
We're doing it, doing it, doing it
Whatever it is
Whatever it is
Whatever
