The story behind the song

"Beach Boys" comes from an album that frontman Rivers Cuomo described as "Beach Boys gone bad," exploring more mature topics than a typical summer song. The band found that the songs on this album felt like "reveries from a beach at the end of the world," hinting at a mood that is less about bright summer days and more about a winter night. This song carries that feeling, a reflection from a wistful, perhaps melancholic, coastal landscape.

The sun won't shine tonight

Metro screaming by

Walking with the Mexicans

Should I call an ambulance?

We need a melody

A gorgeous four part harmony

So it all makes sense

There's gotta be more than this

Everyone wants to be cooler than everyone else

It's a hip hop world

And we're the furniture

Let's get out of the city

Let me tell you about a band I loved

When I was a west-side kid, mmm

We're gonna go caroling in Ocean Park

If you know the notes sing from your heart

'Cause it's gonna be fun

I'm a remarkable guy

I keep you trying new things

Dm F

I keep you young

[Chorus]

Turn it up

It's the Beach Boys

Singing out in a sweet voice

On a roll like a twist toy

Keep cranking them Beach Boys
