Citizen Cope - Contact Lyrics
You're walking down the street
You've got this white Chevy Lumina undercover
Checking you to see
They're checking your I.D.
'Cause it's a fine time
It's a fine time
Say just to run a name
'Cause you look the same
As the dude with the rebel in his veins
But while you're checking me
You've got them crooked politicians
Eating up the treasury
And taking our cash
To spend on the prisons
While the youth they fast
When we can all bring
Like Martin Luther King
This is why I sing
[chorus:]
I want some contact contact
I want some contact contact
I want some contact contact
Contact contact
Only because my life depends on it

I like this song

luv, luv, luv this contact. listen to it about 3 IN A ROW whenever I play it..
Still driving my 92 Chevy Lumina :P
this is a song about a guy that hates two hand touch football
Two things: one: he reminds me a bit of G Love and Special Sauce wonder if this was an influence. I was being tattooed yesterday, and my tattooer played this track and I LOVE IT. Two: why isn't this on iTunes or Spotify?
I saw him open for Live a bunch of years ago, he was awesome. he came down in the audience and signed some autographs and stuff after he played too, he seemed like a really cool guy, friendly and down to earth. I think this one and Appetite for Lightin Dynamite are some of his best.
Had the same experience seeing him open for LIVE. Been a fan since then. Bought his first record right after that.
This is one of those songs that you can't get out of your head.
bbroome62 seriously haven't listened to this song in years but here I am randomly
