Lyrics
Intro
(Sound of waves, seagulls, and distant BBQ laughter)
"Man, the LBC sun hits different today."
"Turn that Crusader's beat up, homie!"
(Heavy Moog bass kicks in)
Vocoder: L.B.C. Summer...
Talkbox: California Love...
[Verse 1: Nasal Male Rap]
Noon on the clock, waking up with a grin
Shades on my face, let the magic begin
Polished Impala, candy paint in the sun
Cruising the block, yeah, the day has begun
Vocoder: Rollin' in my ride
[Pre-Chorus: Low Silky Female Harmony]
Sea breeze blowing, palm trees swaying low
Feel the rhythm, let the worries go...
[Chorus: Heavy Male Group Shout & Female Lead]
SUMMERTIME IN THE LBC! (Feels so good to me)
EVERYBODY PARTY IN THE LBC! (Under the palm trees)
NO GUNSHOTS, JUST THE G-FUNK BEAT! (Rocking the LBC)
[Verse 2: Smooth Baritone Male Rap]
Smoke from the grill, BBQ in the air
Ice cold gin and juice, we got plenty to share
Homies in the circle, laughing real loud
No sirens in the sky, not a single cloud
Vocoder: It’s a lovely day
[Chorus: Heavy Male Group Shout & Female Lead]
SUMMERTIME IN THE LBC! (Feels so good to me)
EVERYBODY PARTY IN THE LBC! (Under the palm trees)
NO GUNSHOTS, JUST THE G-FUNK BEAT! (Rocking the LBC)
[Bridge 1: Extended Dialogue & Short Song]
[Male 1]: "Yo, look at that lowrider hopping over there. That’s clean."
[Male 2]: "That's Big Mike's. He’s been working on that chrome all winter."
[Female (Low voice)]: "Finally, y'all made it. I thought you'd be sleeping all day."
[Male 1]: "You know me, sis. I operate on LBC time. Sun's up, I'm up... eventually."
[Female (Short Melodic Singing)]: (Singing low) "Walking on the sand, drink in my hand, life is so sweet..."
[Male 2]: "Wait, is that the smell of ribs? Please tell me those are ready."
[Female]: "Go grab a plate, but don't you dare touch my special sauce!"
[Male 1]: "Haha, alright, alright. Let's just keep this vibe going forever."
Vocoder: Forever... and ever...
[Verse 3: Heavy Deep Male Rap]
Yeah, move to the rhythm, lean back in the seat
Ain't nothing like the heat on a Long Beach street
Feel the sub-woofer rattling the frame
Talkbox: L.B.C. is the name
[Chorus: Heavy Male Group Shout & Female Lead]
SUMMERTIME IN THE LBC! (Feels so good to me)
EVERYBODY PARTY IN THE LBC! (Under the palm trees)
NO GUNSHOTS, JUST THE G-FUNK BEAT! (Rocking the LBC)
[Verse 4: Smooth Nasal Male Rap]
Life is a mirage when the sun hits the gold
Stories of the LBC never get old
Put the beef on the side, put the love on the top
Vocoder: Don't stop the funk
[Verse 5: Low-Register Female Vocal]
Melting like butter under the golden light
Everything’s smooth, everything’s right
Don't need a crown to feel like a queen
In the hazy blue of this California scene
[Chorus: Heavy Male Group Shout & Female Lead]
SUMMERTIME IN THE LBC! (Feels so good to me)
EVERYBODY PARTY IN THE LBC! (Under the palm trees)
NO GUNSHOTS, JUST THE G-FUNK BEAT! (Rocking the LBC)
[Verse 6: Male & Female Harmony with Ad-libs]
Summer nights, neon lights starting to glow
(Yeah, keep it moving!)
Walking together, taking it slow
(LBC, forever!)
Vocoder: Keep it slow...
[Verse 7: Multiple Male Vocal Switch]
From the East side to the West side, we ride
Got that LBC pride tucked deep inside
(Deep voice): Yeah, we keep it funky!
(Nasal voice): Always staying crunchy!
[Chorus: Heavy Male Group Shout & Female Lead]
SUMMERTIME IN THE LBC! (Feels so good to me)
EVERYBODY PARTY IN THE LBC! (Under the palm trees)
NO GUNSHOTS, JUST THE G-FUNK BEAT! (Rocking the LBC)
[Verse 8: Final Groovy Rap]
Sun dropping down, but the heat stays true
LBC, this one is for you
One last lap around the park
Before the G-Funk lights up the dark
[Bridge 2: Long Talkbox & Rap Exchange]
[Male Harmony]: (Singing low) "Long Beach Summer... so fine... oh yeah..."
Talkbox: Party... Everybody party...
[Male Rap]: "Yeah, pass that juice, let the bassline cruise."
Talkbox: Keep it movin'...
[Male Rap]: "No stress in the chest, West Coast is the best."
Talkbox: Don't stop the feeling...
[Male Rap]: "See the stars coming out, that's what it's about."
Talkbox: California... L.B.C... Summer Breeze...
[Male Harmony]: (Singing) "Ooh, feels so good... yeah..."
Talkbox: Stay funky, my friends...
[Chorus: Heavy Male Group Shout & Female Lead]
SUMMERTIME IN THE LBC! (Feels so good to me)
EVERYBODY PARTY IN THE LBC! (Under the palm trees)
NO GUNSHOTS, JUST THE G-FUNK BEAT! (Rocking the LBC)
[Outro]
Vocoder: L.B.C. Summer Night
(Sound of waves returning)
Talkbox: We out... peace...
(Fade out with the sound of the ocean)
