Toes in the Water, Macaque in the Sand
Upbeat yet relaxed modern country with strong tropical island influences, mid-tempo around 130 BPM, feel-good summer escape anthem. Layered acoustic guitars strumming bright rhythms, steady bass groove, crisp drum kit, light Latin percussion like congas and shakers for a breezy beach feel. Warm, soulful male lead vocals with a Southern drawl, harmonious backing vocals in the chorus, carefree and celebratory tone. Early 2000s country-rock meets Jimmy Buffett-style trop-rock era, open airy production, evoking toes in the water, cold drink in hand, no worries coastal paradise. Catchy sing-along chorus, fun and easygoing vibe.

Lyrics
Not a worry in the world, a Pepsi in my hand
Life is good today
Life is good today
Well, Joe and I went down to Saint Augustine Beach
Just a couple old homeless old guys
Bikinis we watched as they walked by our chairs
Ma-cock was bigger than both of our eyes
Fed up with with our work, for a boss that’s a jerk
Quit our jobs to start the Skrite brand
Bought chairs for a buck, down at Goodwill, what luck!
But macaque is still stuck in the sand
I got my toes in the water, macaque in the sand
Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in Joe’s hand
Life is good today
Life is good today
Adios and buy us a mono
Yeah, we left work today
And if it weren't for macaque buried in sand and rock
On this beach I would stay
Adios and buy us a mono
Yeah, we left work today
Gonna get burn from sun on my old big fat one
While on that guitar Joe plays
The day had a feel like a trip to Duffield
Like a hand job in a hotel lot
This beach is real neat, but it’s time to beat feet
So I don’t cause harm to macaque
I ask that girl in a bikini, if she can come with me
And kiss the hurt off of macaque
Holds her hand out for money, she’s a working girl honey
Services charged by the clock
I got my toes in the water, macaque in the sand
Not a worry in the world, macaque just needs a hand
Life is good today
Life is good today
Adios and buy us a mono
Yeah, we left work today
More drinks we will pound, get Skrite off of the ground
At least that’s what
Adios and buy us a mono
Yeah, we left work today
Someone call us a bus, or have our wives get us
I'll grab macaque, get away
Adios from Rod Steele and Skrite Mike
It’s to hot, we can’t stay
We’re pale on the outside, but dark on the inside
We get burned by the rays
Adios macaque will go home now
Going home now to stay
I'm just gon' drive up to nine mile
And put my ass in my Dodge, keep macaque safe
Not a worry in the world, see Famous Brown on the way
Life is good today
Life is good today
