Ocæn Hard to pick just one favourite, but Finchop was the first song i ever heard from Tshitaki and the energy still holds up every single time.

Hard To Love hits you right where you aren't expecting and stirs feelings you didn't know you'd repressed while Lean on Love gets you pumped hard. The whole album is excellent! Favorite track: Finchop.

The water’s rising in this wave I’m riding While the rest of the world is surfing in the sink In the distance we may need assistance But it won’t be hard to find I think And though I find it rather strange to find the people are so deranged And though I find it rather strange to be surfing here with you The waters turn dirty while we’re all working While the rest of the world is surfing in the sink In the distance we may meet resistance But it won’t be hard to fight I think And though I find it rather strange to find people are so deranged And though I find it rather strange to be surfing here with you And though I find it rather strange to find people are so deranged And though I find it rather strange to be surfing here with you. And though I find it rather strange to find people are so deranged And though I find it rather strange to be surfing here with you. Surfing in a sink with you Surfing in a sink with you Surfing in a sink with you Surfing in a sink with you

Heads baking, suns making, head baking I sweat till I'm glistening clean The racetrack is waiting my foot to the floor I can feel my fins scream I take off I make it The lip starts to pitch Clears my head I tuck in I’m spat out I’m flying I pull off dive into a deep sea of I can feel this goddamn wanna be Heat inside my hands that want to explode Been stung by a goddamn jellyfish Hands are burning Heart starts racing away I lie down, I sit up I stand up, I’m itching from toes up to nose I sleep now I wake up This rash seems to burn through my clothes I take off I’m naked My lips start to swell and my ears start to burn I spit out the flavour As this tropical allergy wave take a hold I can feel this goddamn wanna be Heat inside my hands that want to explode Been stung by a goddamn jellyfish Hands are burning Heart starts racing away I can feel this goddamn wanna be Heat inside my hands that want to explode Been stung by a goddamn jellyfish Hands are burning Heart starts racing away

Inside Out 03:10
What if all I want isn’t all I need – (repeated through out whole song) Let’s run away from this Find a place to hide Run from this sound I hear Lets look inside What if all I want ain’t all I What if all I want ain’t all I need Let’s run away with this Find a place to hide Run from this sound I hear Let’s look outside What if all I want ain’t all I What if all I want ain’t all I What if all I want ain’t all I What if all I want ain’t all I need Run away from this Lets find a place to hide What if all I want ain’t all I What if all I want ain’t all I What if all I want ain’t all I (Lets run away from this) What if all I want ain’t all I (Lets run away from this) What if all I want ain’t all I (Lets run away from this) What if all I want ain’t all I need (Lets run away)

Hard to Love 04:01
He packed his bags and took off I don’t think that he’ll be back here for a year or so Sold off half his stuff The moulds in a pile out front his now empty home It was hard enough to leave The ceremony of departure that dragged on and on He wasn’t trying to run He just decided he was done with pleasing everyone He said it’s Hard to love you But it’s harder not to know you at all Six hours away the same day that he left I’m on a highway driving far too slow The opposite direction But my thoughts, they ride beside me much closer to home And there’s a scent that’s in the air That something’s missing, there’s an absence I don’t want to know I wasn’t trying to run away, I just decided I was done These changes crept up slow. I said it’s Hard to love you But it’s harder not to know you at all Cause it’s hard to love you But it’s harder not to know you at all If I disappear a while Don’t think I’ve left you here alone I’ll be back here on time We all need space to run away We all need time to breath That’s when we learn to fly You cannot hold the future Don’t be fighting with the past That’s just a waste of time There’s no point in trying to run I’ve decided I’ll stay present in this state of mind. You said it’s Hard to love you But it’s harder not to know you at all Cause it’s hard to love you But it’s harder not to know you at all If I disappear a while Don’t think I’ve left Don’t say goodbye My place is here with you

Coward 04:57
You sit on top a hill hunt waiting The sun is rising and your camp begins to stir Does a light not burn inside your head To wake you up and tell you something wrong You’ve been weeks, months in anticipation You’ve paid your weight in cash To make sure this will come To a bloody end for one who waits defenceless Now tell me who has won What sort of coward kills a lion just for fun When did something die inside of you And make your heart turn numb Does a light not burn inside your head To tell you this is wrong You cannot justify your violence It is no threat to you your murder isn’t sport Does a light not burn inside your head A stronger man would let life live its course Our earth has given you a choice here She gave you nature You can nurture or you can scorn There’s such weakness in the power felt From killing just to fill your trophy wall What sort of coward kills a lion just for fun When did something die inside of you And make your heart go numb Does a light not burn inside your heart And wake up your ability for love For Love, For Love, Your ability for love What sort of coward kills a lion just for fun When did something die inside of you And make your heart turn numb Does a light not burn inside your head And wake up your ability for love

Lean On Love 02:40
Feminism criticism Masculism cynicism Draw a line and we all divide Lean on love and we multiply Figure What is live good for ? It softens our complexity and gives us more diversity Left side right side Left right Left right Well if it feels like war well fuck If just might I gotta lean on my love I gotta lean on my love We gotta lean on our love We gotta lean on our love I gotta lean on my love We gotta lean on our love Gotta lean on my love We gotta lean on our love Gotta lean on our love I Gotta lean on my love We Gotta lean on my love We Gotta lean on it All these “isms “ They feel like criticism But if we lean on love wel they might listen I gotta lean on my love I gotta lean on my love We gotta lean on our love We gotta lean on our love I gotta lean on my love We gotta lean on our love Gotta lean on my love We gotta lean on our love Gotta lean on our love I Gotta lean on my love We Gotta lean on my love We Gotta lean on it

Finchop 02:22
Well I dug this hole around myself to find myself That’s all I’m here to see I stick my tail between my legs and drown my thought In one last smoking seed Confuse myself to know it all confuse myself And lose what I believe I’m trying hard to make a sound my mouth won’t work It sounds the same to me It’s all the same again I’m just pulling cones with all my friends I just can’t believe we got so bent These eyes are never gonna let it show Well I met this girl I took her home we got so stoned I threw up in the sink Desperate to enjoy the day I got so stoned Now what’s there left to think I’ll set a trap to catch myself and find myself There’s too much here to see Desperate to enjoy the day I got so stoned What’s there left for me It’s all the same again I’m just pulling cones with all my friends I just can’t believe we got so bent These eyes are never gonna let it show It’s all the same again I’m just pulling cones with all my friends I just can’t believe we got so bent These eyes are never gonna let it show

Holiday 03:02
I’m on a treadmill a fucking treadmill Everyday it feels the same I’m running this wheel From the morning goddamn head is throbbing My mind is longing for a break somebody take me away Away from this place changing at my own pace Not coming back till my head is in it’s own space It keeps on talking I keep on walking It keeps on talking I just keep on running away I had a breakdown a fucking breakdown The endless start and stop of hustle sunk in this town I’m dragging this way I’m dragging that way My head is heading for a break somebody take me away The day is deadpan rusted as a program Flatter than a frozen lake before a meltdown But I can’t hold it I’m gunna free it Open up my mind and let the road remind me to Leave this city light behind us I need a getaway I need a holiday Open roads and stars to guide us I need a holiday I just need to get away We’re on the road now we’re hunting K’s down The air is changing sun it looks amazing Burst through a mountain rivers running down stream A field of shrooms stop here let’s make love hold the day Tighten your hand listen that’s how love sounds But you can’t hold it you gotta free it Open up you heart and let the road remind us to Leave these cities light behind us I need a getaway I need a holiday Open roads and stars to guide us I need a holiday I just need to get away Leave these cities light behind us I need a getaway I need a holiday Open roads and stars to guide us I need a holiday I just need to get away H is for Help me and O is for get me Outta here L is for Love because I I have been inconsiderate D is for day that we both can go A A far Away Y is for You because you and I need a long HOLIDAY

Wander through the years the night don’t seem to end The days just seem to drift inside their filthy selves Feeling like I did before you passed away We smiled and laughed we twinkled through another play I saw you last a sudden shock to let you know A father to a thousand kids we grew to know A gentle man forever in my heart That’s how I know Whenever the sun goes down Over this lonely town Whenever the moon rises high in the sky I see your face your watching over me Wander through a night of stars begin to shower A blanket sky of twinkling smiling eyes You’re looking down a teacher in another life A father in the one I know the one I love Waiting for the sun to rise it seems to bend its self And let me think I’m all alone All by myself I look to you And then I know Whenever the sun goes down Over this lonely town Whenever the moon rises high in the sky I see your face your watching over me Wander through the day that never seems to end To lose a father then to lose a friend The day is dragging out of control To do a line and wait and let you go Till the choice is and then there’s nothing left to choose Besides the fact of feeling all alone I’m by myself when I look to you And then I know Whenever the sun goes down Over this lonely town Whenever the moon rises high in the sky I see your face your watching over me Whenever the sun goes down Over this lonely town Whenever the moon rises high in the sky I see your face your watching over me

The world keeps turning the world keeps turning The world keeps turning the world keeps turning The world keeps turning the world keeps turning The world keeps turning the world keeps turning The world keeps turning the world keeps turning The world keeps turning the world keeps turning The world keeps turning the world keeps turning Did I wake up in a bad dream Where the tide has swept away our homes When we move on out of our street Where the ocean mist had kept us young Cause you can’t hold some things in your hand Like time keeps moving on And you can’t stop and go back again Cause the tide keeps turning Upside down And your world keeps turning Inside Out When your world starts falling down Did we wake up in a bad dream Lost our endless summers lost our lawns There’s no grass now it’s all concrete And the fences separate the love Cause you only realise what you had Once it’s lost and gone And you can’t go back and stop again Cause the tide keeps turning Upside down And your world keeps turning Inside Out When your world starts falling down Upside down And the tide keeps turning Inside Out And the world starts turning round Turning round And the world keeps turning round And the world keeps turning round Turning, turning upside down Did I wake up in a bad dream Where the tide has swept away our homes When we move on out of our street Where the ocean mist had kept us young Did we wake up in a bad dream Lost our endless summers lost our lawns There’s no grass now it’s all concrete And the fences separate the love Cause you can’t hold some things in your hand Like time keeps moving on And you can’t stop and go back again Cause the tide keeps turning Upside down And your world keeps turning Inside Out When your world starts falling down Upside down And the tide keeps turning Inside Out And the world keeps turning round Upside And the world keeps turning Upside And the world keeps turning Upside And the world keeps turning Upside And the world keeps turning Upside And the world keeps turning Upside And the world keeps turning Upside And the world keeps turning Upside And the world keeps turning round Upside And the world keeps turning And the world keeps turning Upside down
