about
Created in the depths of Melbourne's Lockdown 6.0, Longboardin' in Lockdown reflects on suburban mundanity and the longing for temporarily impossible pursuits, an ode to better days ahead.

Lyrics
I wish we were surfing this weekend
But I'm staring up at grain silos in Kensington
Wishing someone would open the door
And the grains would fall out
I'd surf to the river mouth
Sleeping with the windows open
City Link noise, the only ocean sound
We're in lockdown...
Chorus
Waxing my board in anticipation
Dreaming of a surf coast vacation
Highlight of the day
Watching people as they wait
With their pets at the vets,
That's as happy as it gets...
I get down to pop up on the floor
Do my neighbours even live here anymore?
Chorus
We're not going anywhere
I'm not going anywhere
You're not going anywhere
but we are going everywhere soon...
