Australian Indie Pop band ‘Sheppard’ released this song called Geronimo a few months ago and I just find it so easy to sing along to and are not getting tired of it!
It reached the top of the Australian singles chart in April where it remained for three weeks.
The title of the song is a reference to the famous Apache military leader Geronimo, and the custom of yelling his name before doing a courageous act. A wooden likeness of Geronimo being carried by a crowd of people, appears as a motif in the official music video. ‘Geronimo’ is quite often yelled as people jump out of planes when parachuting or running in a fun manner when playing games.
The lyrics of the chorus are very repetitive and are below the video. What do you think of this song?
Lyrics
Can you feel it? Now it’s coming back we can steal it.
If we bridge this gap, I can see you
Through the curtains of the waterfall.
When I lost it, Yeah you held my hand,
But I tossed it, Didn’t understand,
You were waiting, As I dove into the waterfall.
So say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Can you feel my love?
Bombs away,
Bombs away,
Bombs away.
Can you feel my love?
Bombs away,
Bombs away,
Bombs away,
Say Geronimo!
Well we rushed it, Moving away to fast.
That we crushed it, But it’s in the past.
We can make this leap, Through the curtains of the waterfall.
So Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Can you feel my love?
Bombs away,
Bombs away,
Bombs away.
Can you feel my love?
Bombs away,
Bombs away,
Bombs away.
Well I’m just a boy, With a broken toy,
All lost and coy, At the curtains of the waterfall.
So it’s here I stand, As a broken man,
But I’ve found my friend, At the curtains of the waterfall.
Now I’m falling down, Through the crashing sound.
And you’ve come around, At the curtains of the waterfall.
And you rushed to me, And it sets us free.
So I fall to my knees, At the curtains of the waterfall.
So Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Say Geronimo!
Can you feel (Say Geronimo! [x4]) my love?
Bombs away! [x3] (Say Geronimo! [x4])
Can you feel (make this leap [x3]) my love? Make this leap.
Can you feel my love?
