Kicks Lyrics

In the mornin' blood ran through my veins
Comatosed, holy dosed again and again
And the night, yeah, pullin' up my head
On your back, Cadillac, drinkin' till' I am dead

Oh come with me
I'll show you how to live for free
Nobody got a thing on me
Done singing in the midnight street (Oooh)
Oh diamond deeds, a minimal variety
I am playing till' my fingers bleed
I'll never lack the quality

Well I get my kicks
Take the money
I'll get my fix
Well I get my kicks
(Oh yeah)
Well I get my kicks
Now and forever, I get my fix
Well I get my kicks
(Oh yeah)

I am the wild one, lightning in my veins
Same again, lazy day, one man hit parade
Till' we're duller, black smoke in my eyes
Shattered glass, fallen first, leave me paralised

Oh come with me
I'll show you how to live for free
Nobody got a thing on me
Done singing in the midnight street (Oooh)
Oh diamond deeds, a minimal variety
I am playing till' my fingers bleed
I'll never lack the quality

Well I get my kicks
Take the money
I'll get my fix
Well I get my kicks
(Oh yeah)
Well I get my kicks
Now and forever, I get my fix
Well I get my kicks
(Oh yeah)

Oh come with me
I'll show you how to live for free
Nobody got a thing on me
Done singing in the midnight street (Oooh)
Oh diamond deeds, a minimal variety
I am playing till' my fingers bleed
I'll never lack the quality

Well I get my kicks
Take the money
I'll get my fix
Well I get my kicks
(Oh yeah)
Well I get my kicks
Now and forever, I get my fix
Well I get my kicks
(Oh yeah)

Barns Courtney (born Barnaby George Courtney on 17 November 1990 in
Aylesbury, England) is an English singer, songwriter and musician.

Courtney spent a large part of his childhood in Seattle,USA, before returning to home country UK as a 15-year-old. This change of scenery comes across as clearly in his eclectic mix of US blues-rock, hip-hop and grunge with British indie melodic sensibilities, as it does in his hybrid US-British twang.

Playing in various projects and bands growing up whilst developing his sound, Barns incarnation as a solo artist has been an unexpectedly fast paced one. At the end of 2015, his first track ‘Glitter & Gold’, with its rocking gospel-blues and Barns’ honey & sand delivery, soared to #1 on the UK Spotify Viral Chart, #2 on the iTunes Alternative Chart, was added to the BBC Introducing Playlist, clocked hundred of thousands of plays on YouTube, and was featured on the ITV Winter 2015 drama reel, all in the span of two months.

‘Goodbye John Smith’, a poignant piano ballad that channels ageless song-and-voice men such as Johnny Cash and Tom Waits, hit the radars of tastemakers online and further spread the word about Barns, earning him a spot as one of Channel 4’s Future Sounds artists that year.

Barns Courtney released his debut EP, ‘Hands’, a four-track collection, in 2016 on Virgin EMI. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
