Kaboom Lyrics by Joe Iconis

Two-Player Game

2018

[Verse 1: George Salazar]
I never cared about caring much before
I rolled my eyes and even texting was a chore
I was your average heartless kid
Then one day Mrs. Werring [? 0:19] handed me a book and said
"Here, read this book. The book is by some guy who's dead"
I read it and I'm glad I did
It was by a person who I never knew, but the words made sense and the message, too
And it made me fired up and made me care
And I wasn't scared, I was not alone
Made me wanna make something of my own
Something wired up that I could share
And that person I would never see, just totally affected me
Is that legacy?
I assume
Kaboom!
Kaboom!
[Verse 2: George Salazar and Joe Iconis]
I never cared about fireworks before
I thought that they were just for babies, nothing more
I was your average fucking kid
But then I started giving things a second look
And realized fireworks were kind of like that book
And I'm really glad I did
'Cause they're a thing that you hold in your hand
And they're dangerous, but you understand
If handled with intelligence and care
The explosion and the crashing sound can be seen and felt for miles around
It reaches folks who weren't even there
Even though I didn't see the blast
I watched glitter in the sky blow past
And that's legacy
The bloom
Kaboom!
Kaboom!
[Verse 3: George Salazar and Joe Iconis]
I look around and think about the stage I'm on
And whether anyone will notice when I'm gone
What do I leave behind?
Which is why we gotta make a spark
Which makes a flame and then will leave its mark
For someone else to find
And that person who lived dangerously
Makes me braver than I used to be
And now I'm fired up and how I care
And I always squeeze my bloody heart
And I let it drip into my art
And, wow, I'm fired up
I see a flare
And the light that shines on the distant shore
Is the light I will be aiming for, forever
So bright
[Verse 4: George Salazar and Joe Iconis]
There's a great, green light
Across the ocean
And it's where I want to go
There's a great, green light
Across the ocean
And I'm gonna reach it
This I know
There's a great, green light
Across the ocean
And it's where I want to go
There's a great, green light
Across the ocean
And I'm gonna reach it
This I know
Oh, on with the wonderful show
Kaboom!
Kaboom!
Kaboom!
