A product of the ever-growing Columbus, OH music scene, the psychedelic pop infused 4-piece Captain Kidd returns after the release of their sophomore EP “Good Life”. Propelled by the success of their single “Freaky Love,” Captain Kidd’s evolution has taken them from the dive clubs of northeast and central Ohio, to supporting the likes of Glass Animals, Capital Cities, Wiz Khalifa, and Griz at some of the country’s premier music festivals.
Characterized by spacey synths blended with sultry vocals, the band has captured the attention of listeners from New York to New Zealand. This dynamic mixture of song writing elements has cultivated a sound that has been described as “fresh,” “dance-able,” and “celestial.” The band is set to release their first full-length album, expected Spring 2018.
Lyrics:
Last night I saw the future Tangled in your hair like a bad dream A dirty hallelujah When your room looked the same as we left things The way we left it I broke the law with you back then We were a storm and you know it And Id run off with you back then Seems so much better when you know its over Cause baby you bleed me, yeah you bleed me With your love And baby you bleed me, yeah you bleed me With your touch And baby you bleed me, yeah you bleed me With your love Baby you bleed me, yeah you bleed me Daydreams wrapped in amber The way you always said that youd hate me On warm nights I remember When summer used to slow all the bleeding Slow all our bleedingLyrics:
Are we playing roulette, the way we move in circles? Its such a shame we could never escape, were intertwined I can tell by the look on your face, its clear as Cristal We should act like were never afraid, but I wont lie Youve just got to Youve just got to move with me now, dont act like its forever Cant control ourselves on the nights that were together Always something more, another new thrill we can run to Youve just got to move fast in a world of pain and pleasure And are you in it? When we dont need someone to talk to Pushing the limit Pushing the limitLyrics:
Am I high on the air Im breathing? I stole it from your lungs All the nights Im with you are painted Red with obsession Youre burning fast on me like a fever Are you searching for something sweeter? Champagne and a box of matches You know it drives you wild And I know I cant keep you off my mind Theres just something about your love I might be wasting all my time Theres just something about your love Its the way that you cut me open Watch it all pour out Its how you sway on me like the ocean As if we never stopped I cant complain when you pull me under Call it wrath of a jealous lover To stay and enjoy the violence You know it drives you wild And I know They say youre reckless But I dont care Got me feeling restless But baby Im not scared I just need to find a way toLyrics:
I got my eyes on you You're everything that I see I want your hot love and emotion, endlessly I can't get over you You left your mark on me I want your high love and emotion, endlessly 'Cause you're a good girl and you know it You act so different around me 'Cause you're a good girl and you know it I know exactly who you could be Just hold on we're going home Just hold on we're going home It's hard to do these things alone Just hold on we're going home, ho oh I got my eyes on you You're everything that I see I want your hot love and emotion, endlessly I can't get over you You left your mark on me I want your high love and emotion, endlessly 'Cause you're a good girl and you know it You act so different around me 'Cause you're a good girl and you know it I know exactly who you could be So just hold on we're going home (goin' home) Just hold on we're going home (goin' home) It's hard to do these things alone (things alone) Just hold on we're going home (goin' home) Ho oh (goin' home) You're the girl You're the one Gave you every Thing I love I think there's something Baby I think there's something Baby You're the girl You're the one Gave you every Thing I love I think there's something Baby I think there's something Baby 'Cause you're a good girl and you know it You act so different around me 'Cause you're a good girl and you know it I know exactly who you could be Oh just hold on we're going home (goin' home) Just hold on we're going home (goin' home) It's hard to do these things alone (things alone) Just hold on we're going home (goin' home) Ho oh (goin' home)Lyrics:
Were chasing high life on a screen Were taking pills just to fall asleep Its not enough, baby, just to feel Empty Were making headlight reveries Packed in a car going 93 Were burning off bad history This week Maybe Im caught up in chasing bluer skies Wasting away til summer time Lost in this plastic paradise, this paradise Were running red lights on our way home Got bad habits we dont disclose Its the good life, and it doesnt mean anything Yeah Youve got those lipstick memories Theyre painted red up on your cheek A different girl for a different week When youre greenLyrics:
I wonder where youve been, its felt so long Since I saw you here in all alone And in the end I know were better off with time But I want to know if Im on your mind Give me just a moment Your dress fits like an omen And I hardly even notice Theres anyone around us And how can I make you stay? Oh babe I want to know If our love will feel the same way Or not at all And just like that Velvet memories, they come right back And Im a fool who knows I cant make up my mind I should say no, but thatd be a lieLyrics:
Theres a shock in her step and a current in her tongue Spark in her eyes and a smile says Im wrong And Im thinking that she might be searching for someone To make that connection And it couldnt be nearer Whether locking eyes or step with step Hard to ignore when your mind is set Its part of the feeling That you get when the night runs long Grabs your hand and leads you on and on and on Theres a look in her eyes that says shes got you where she wants you Pressed up into a corner the second she caught you all alone Not a question of want to when shes got you by the shoulder Pulling you closer, and closer yeah yeah Shut out the lights and shimmer in the dark Pull her close and shell reel you with a spark Across your skin with her fingers supercharged And wait for you to startLyrics:
Freaky Love wont you take time by the minute Watch the room receeding, spinning Til were in it, in it, in it, yeah My vaccine, recurring siamese dream Illuminate hallucination burnt into the back of your mind I want to love you Be the undercover touch that makes you feel alright I want perception Feel the indiscretion that you bring the air tonight And what I want Is your body And what I need Is your body Your Freaky Love Freaky Love keeps a gun under her mattress Not afraid to play with matches if tempation puts a thought in her mind Theyre bold, the knots that bind her love The product of desire to inspire selfish harmony, ohLyrics:
You shouldnt keep your back on the wall Shoulda known better than to lose yourself for too long And you want to get away from it all But the beat calls you with a hypnotic signal Shes got the style and rhythm, but shes got no feeling One look could freeze you in place, but shes paying no one mind Theres no assurance shell listen, staring at the ceiling Thoughts flow to beyond this space, she left us far behind Shes holed up by the window Shell make with no ones eyes She said shes sick of it But in my mind shes here on the dancefloor All the time, not eyeing the back door Do I really want to try to get through to you? Is this really what we came here tonight for? But in my mind shes here on the dancefloor All the time, not eyeing the back door Do I really want to try to get through to you? Yes, I do. Your face is spectered white at the thought Of the night burning, and your heart turning beatwise But if youd only make your way on the floor Then you might realize that you feel weightless tonight Wouldnt you wanna Catch the midnight sunLyrics:
Long before the lights come on A shifting beat and rhythm starts, an ebb and flow, like fever nodes, from head to toe She wonders if youll stay for long Intrusive and unyielding thoughts, irrational, they feed our hopes and judgements so that We can walk the night forever search for a girl like you Like you, like you, like you, like you But the weekend doesnt last forever, and it doesnt matter what you do You do, you do Dont think for a moment That well be strangers in the morning even if I wont meet your eyes Were too deep to go back Back to the way it was when we were young, and cared for no more than highs Dont think for a moment That well be strangers in the morning even if I wont meet your eyes Were too deep to go back Back to the way it was when we were young, and cared for no more than highs People change in daytime clothes We cling to our conventions strong, enough to warp our hidden goals beyond control Says it all without a word Her eyes betray her silence for a fleeting hold, a pulse of warm but nothing more thanLyrics:
Couldve sworn I had caught you by your silhouette Rebel eyes like emeralds cut through the vapors Throw a gaze through the door and I draw a cigarette Never one to decline an invitation Vision tricks - Im tongue tied and blindfolded To your disappearing act Voodoo touch, you pin me down And I dont know if I can take much more These smoke and mirrors get a little bit old And I dont want to lie but I cant tell you, so Lets take it slow, lets take it slow Would it hurt you to warn me when you float away And amber spotlight cast on pavement And I watch for your sign in every passing gaze But your faces defies illumination And I just want to show youLyrics:
Walking in your summer dress Youve been going out on every night Could be sleeping but instead Pretend youre doing just fine, yeah were fine Should I cut you off? Cause youre tripping on your feet Yeah, well walk it off With our eyes kept on the streets And all my friends, we drown it out Lost again downtown Three AM, were out of line And well do it all again tonight Live it up for one more round Broke again downtown Three AM, were out of line And well do it all again tonight Nice to meet you, whats your sign? Yeah, the liquor makes the time go by 3-inch heels and dandelions Chase your doubts with salt and lime, yeah were fine And well do it all again tonight
