Odelay!

To Main Lyrics

Where It's At

        There's a destination a little up the road
        From the habitations and the towns we know
        A place we saw the lights turned low
        The jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow

5       Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts
        Two turntables and a microphone
        Bottles and cans just clap your hands
        And just clap your hands

        Where it's at!
10      I got two turntables and a microphone
        Where it's at!
        I got two turntables and a microphone

        Pick yourself up off the side of the road
        With your elevator bones
15      And your whip-flash tones
        Members only hypnotizers
        Move through the room like ambulance drivers
        Shine your shoes with your microphone blues
        Hirsutes with your parachute flutes
20      Passing the dutchie from coast to coast
        Let my man Gary Wilson (rock the most)

        Where it's at!
        I got two turntables and a microphone
        Where it's at!
25      I got two turntables and a microphone

        (Got my microphone....)
        There's a destination a little up the road
        From the habitations and the towns we know
        A place we saw the lights turn low
30      The jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow

        Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts
        Two turntables and a microphone
        Bottles and cans and just clap your hands 
        And just clap your hands


Analysis: This song is about a club that Beck is a DJ at. It's far enough away from familiar places to feel like it's an escape. It's a dark club with a refreshing atmosphere to it, and always has good music playing. It's a party for anyone that needs it. There's drinks and music, and it's a good place to go to just feel good. It's a cool place to be because he's the DJ and he's always spinning good beats.

Get up from where you've been stranded and do something after a rough day. Only certain people can get in, but if you do the people there will help you relax and have a good time. Everyone is equal there, but his friend Gary Wilson is the coolest.
