I’m beginning to think that the MAFS cast is selected solely based on how much funny shit that could potentially be dug up about them.
As you might be aware, the latest MAFS victim of ghosts of internet’s past is “intruder” Drew Brauer and his so-bad-it’s-good song and music video ‘Kick On’s” under his not bogan at all stage name “Drewboy“. We have @mafsfunny to thank for unearthing the video initially, which has led MAFS fans down a deep dive of Drewboy’s questionable music catalogue.
Now the good people at Now To Love reached out the the 31 year old for comment on the song’s lyrical content. He defended himself and the song.
Drew said he needed a fun and cheeky song to play at music festivals, since the majority of his songs are about heartbreak and hard times he has been through.
“We started playing big festivals and basically we needed some festival songs. So I wrote that very tongue-in-cheek and it was written specifically for festival-goers and it was a heap of fun to write and it’s a heap of fun to play on stage.”
But did admit the lyrics were a little cringe…
“The lyrics sound so much worse when you read them out slowly!”
This is when I decided to type the lyrics out for your enjoyment, but something amazing happened….
After a few listens the song more than grew on me, you could say it Drew on me (thanks). I began to bop my head and tap my feet, I started to sing along. Now, I think I love it deeply.
So like, is it too late the vote for ‘Kick On’s’ in the Hottest 100 of the decade? If so, scoot over Kanye.
It will be in my heavy rotation, I hope to see it in local karaoke joints, if we can get Paul Kelly to cover it, it might just be our new National anthem.
Please enjoy, it’s available on Spotify.
Intro
Staying on for the kick ons x2 (distorted)
Verse 1
Well it’s a Sunday
Make way for a fun day
Sitting in the sun
Sipping rum
Not a bum day
Sideways!
Charlie Sheen with his eyes glazed
Speaking of a mind maze
Has anybody seen my pants?
Fuck, they were my best pair
Sorry ‘bout the bare chest
Death stare
It’s nice to meet the twins
Yay!
Big boobies for the win
Please let this lady in so we can rub em on our chins
Yum Yum!
We’re all cooked like a coles chook
Tryna’ cop a cheap look
God damn, I’m glad you’re not my mum!
Ouch! My brain is like a flat pack
Throbbing like an agonizing (sack back?)
????? no clue soz ????
So you can be my friend
This day is nearly done
But the party doesn’t end
No worries in the world
The bacardi doesn’t mend
This day is nearly done but this party… doesn’t… end
(end)(end)(end)(end)(end)(end)
Chorus
Floating Through my days
Yes I’m Drifting tonight
Floating Through my days
Yeah I’m drifting
Away oh, Ayo
Were all kicking on
The suns going down but its not taking me
Ayo ayo
Weekends almost gone
Yeah let’s go crazy!
So let’s all bend
The night won’t end
We’ll chugg on for an eon
Lets stay strong
And carry on
Lets get lit like neon
Ayo Ayo
We’re all kicking on
We’ll stay on for the kick ons
(We’ll stay on for the kick ons)
(Stay on for the kick ons)
Verse 2
I’m feeling salubrious
While I mutilate my nucleus
Join me if you’re dubious
Excuse me miss
I’m new to this
Yeah (yeah)
Quick! Who wants a nose beer?
Shifted into overdrive
Almost sleep till next year
Numb dumb
Numb dumb I’m broke
Can’t afford to get to work
Cause we bought some (?)
Call the boss
Inform him of his loss
Remember sound sick
And don’t forget that little cough!
I’ll mature when I’m older
I’ll party while im young
Like a rigid areola
Getting freckled in the sun (oh my god)
This day is nearly over but the party’s never done
So get some tequila and pour it on my tongue..
Yeeeeeeeaaahhhhhh!!!
Chorus x 2
End
