get on your boots

Music: U2

And the countdown to the reason for my very existence begins. 43 days until the excruciating long awaited new U2 album, No Line on the Horizon, is released in the US...and I can feel whole again. Yesterday the first single…Get on Your Boots was released. Naturally…I love it! And I already know all the words!

Quick sounds play with a fast talking Bono. Edge’s guitar never failing. It is reminiscent of Fast Cars but with a lot quicker pace.

Get on Your Boots Lyrics

The future needs a big kiss
Winds blows with a twist
Never seen a moon like this
Can you see it too?

Night is falling everywhere
Rockets at the fun fair
Satan loves a bomb scare
But he won’t scare you

Hey, sexy boots
Get on your boots, yeah

You free me from the dark dream
Candy floss ice cream
All our kids are screaming
But the ghosts aren’t real

Here’s where we gotta be
Love and community
Laughter is eternity
If joy is real

You don’t know how beautiful
You don’t know how beautiful you are
You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you?
You don’t know how beautiful you are

That’s someone’s stuff they’re blowing up
We’re into growing up
Women of the future
Hold the big revelations

I got a submarine
You got gasoline
I don’t want to talk about wars between nations

Not right now

Hey sexy boots…
Get on your boots, yeah
Not right now
Bossy boots

You don’t know how beautiful
You don’t know how beautiful you are
You don’t know, and you don’t get it, do you?
You don’t know how beautiful you are

Hey sexy boots
I don’t want to talk about the wars between the nations
Sexy boots, yeah

Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Meet me in the sound

Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound, now
God, I’m going down
I don’t wanna drown now
Meet me in the sound

Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Let me in the sound, sound
Meet me in the sound

Get on your boots
Get on your boots
Get on your boots
Yeah hey hey

I seriously want to throw a pair of Pretty Woman boots and a mini skirt on every time I listen to this song!

You are right Bono…I don’t know how beautiful I am…but please keep telling me how over and over!

I also want to note the lyrics...
Never seen a moon like this
Can you see it too?
Clearly he is referencing me and the meaning of my last name.
