*LYRICS* Take, take from the ones who love you, ooh Leave, leave with the ones who don't, ooh Lie, lie to the ones who like you Lay, lay with the ones who won't [Chorus] When lightning strikes I will be on my bike I won't be stuck inside I will be taking flight [Verse 2] They, they are the ones who love you, ooh We, we are the ones who don't, ooh Hang up on the ones who need you, ooh Watch out for the ones who won't [Chorus] When lightning strikes I'll be on my bike I won't be stuck inside I will be taking flight And when the wheels come off I'll be an astronaut I will be lost in space I will be skipping rocks [Bridge] When you live on an island Nothing ever falls in place The winters are violent And you can't ever feel your face You can't fucking feel your face [Chorus] And when lightning strikes I'll be on my bike I won't be stuck inside I will be taking flight And when the wheels come off I'll be an astronaut I will be lost in space I'll be on Lippincott [Outro] Ooh Take...
Alvvays are like your high school friends who formed a band and then created great music after focusing the talents. The strong writing and pleasant vocals create pleasant melodies, yet there is also just enough sprinkling of dark lyrics to let you know that they experience and explore the same hardships we are all trying to navigate through.
Used to listen to this back in highschool when on break lifeguarding over the summer. Sunny skies, goofy coworkers, playing pokemon Yellow on my 3DS XL, the vibes were immaculate.
If this band had come around in the 90's they'd have been big. This record is still in my top 3 of the 10's and it's not certain it's not in the top 3 of the 21st century so far.
This is easily one of their best songs in their entire catalogue. I really _liked_ Alvvays when I first heard them (Archie, Next of Kin etc.) but I *loved* them after I heard this song. Masterpiece. ❤️
I can imagine when I am 30 years old, with what nostalgia I will listen to these songs. It's a pity that I probably will never be able to get to the performance.
After discovering this band this week, i listened to every album and release and this song, top 3 by far.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥2:50 is just soooo yummy. Also, I'm not sure what changed but i think their sound esthetic sounds much better onn this album than anything made since, idk why...

Try hearing it live. 😭
this track is just criminally underrated & brutally good tho
Anthem
This was the first Alvvays song that caught my attention, back when it was new. Now they are one of my favorite bands!
*LYRICS*
Take, take from the ones who love you, ooh
Leave, leave with the ones who don't, ooh
Lie, lie to the ones who like you
Lay, lay with the ones who won't
[Chorus]
When lightning strikes
I will be on my bike
I won't be stuck inside
I will be taking flight
[Verse 2]
They, they are the ones who love you, ooh
We, we are the ones who don't, ooh
Hang up on the ones who need you, ooh
Watch out for the ones who won't
[Chorus]
When lightning strikes
I'll be on my bike
I won't be stuck inside
I will be taking flight
And when the wheels come off
I'll be an astronaut
I will be lost in space
I will be skipping rocks
[Bridge]
When you live on an island
Nothing ever falls in place
The winters are violent
And you can't ever feel your face
You can't fucking feel your face
[Chorus]
And when lightning strikes
I'll be on my bike
I won't be stuck inside
I will be taking flight
And when the wheels come off
I'll be an astronaut
I will be lost in space
I'll be on Lippincott
[Outro]
Ooh
Take...
“I’ll be on my burn” “I will be taking form”
Am I the only one who finds this song extremely sad?
It sounds like a lie

You put down in words what it had been in my mind but yet didn't quite see it clearly. Such an underestimated comment! 😊

This song _really_ speaks to my cavalier attitude towards cycling in unfavorable conditions.
ok
lol

I saw them open for The Decemberists. They fucking killed it. Great band, so worth it to see them live.
1 year later...

I heard this live in June. I listen sometimes when I need to remember that there are good things in the world-Molly's voice. What a song
I wish I was still like two people's friends. I have an ex that feels weird too. Peace.
