Title: Sec Walkin Lyrics
Post by: TGMC421 on Mar 11, 2008, 07:02 PM
(My take, at least  ;) )

Left leg, right leg.
One leg at a time.
I keep on walkin,
I keep on walkin.

Red light, green light
First light I see
Tonight
I'm walkin.
Ooh yeah I am walkin.

Feverrrrr.

Breathinnnn you're ol' cool, blue air.

Look for eyes that,
Hypnotize and,
Sparkle (Sparkle!)

Look for eyes that,
Hypnotize and,
Sparkle,
Everywhere.

Brother, brother
Don't you care?
Brother, brother
Don't ya care?

Left leg to right leg,
One leg at a time.
I keep on walkin,
I keep on walkin.

Red light, green light
First light I see
Tonight
I'm walkin.
Ooh yeah I am walkin.

Feverrrrr.

Breathinnnn you're ol' cool, blue air, air.

Demon eyes,
Demon eyes are,
Watchin (Watchin!)

Demon eyes,
Demon eyes are,
Watchin,
Everywhere, Ohh!

Brother, brother
Don't you care?
Brother, brother
Don't ya care?

Who know what Sec is, but man, this is one of my new Jacket faves.  It's just good ol Americana feel-good soul music.

This song is SO great. I could play it on repeat all day. Simple, but the melancholy soul vibe rules!

"Demon eyes are watchin' everywhere." It's so true.

In Entertainment Weekly, Jim was quoted as saying Sec Walkin was a phrase that was on a pizza box delivered to him when he was in college.  His friend and him said it sounded like a country singer's name, and it's stuck with him ever since.

It's about surveillance and Big Brother isn't it.  I like it rather a lot.  I must be stuck in the 70's or something....

I love when I am alone in my car singing the high ptiched "Brother" background vocal as loud as I can.  Please God don't let anyone ever hear this.

I thought it had a religious meaning to it (since most of the album does) so I assumed it was Secular.

Meaning there is nothing religious about what you are doing you are just taking it one step at a time and trying to live life.  But, thats just my opinion.
