Disobey 03:28
Dawning of a life Dusk and fear around That’s sound an awful lot like a world demise What have we done Sorry sons we fall We never said Yes, they never heard our No Don’t matter what they say Don’t matter who you are If you think it’s unfair You have to disobey Don’t matter what they say Don’t matter who you are If you think it’s absurd You have to disobey It doesn’t matter how cause now it’s too late There’s no time to chatter we have to go straight We have lost enough so now it’s time to stand What have we done For this world in fall I wanna say something to you son When a government is unjust, people should refuse to follow the law People's first obligation is to do what they believe is right, not to follow the law A person should never participate in evil, not even if it is the law. No ! Not even if it is the law No ! Not even if it is the law* I don’t care what you say is bullshit *Henry David Thoreau - Civil Disobedience

Only one for the taste Maybe two for the mood Ok three for the effect And one more cause it's really good Give me one small to dare An another to be sure Just a last for the fun before it’s too late to stop the flood And so I drink too much, that's true I Drink too much what can I do I Drink to much, what about you And do I really wanna be sober now? That's right you know I drink too much that's true i Drink too much what can I do I Drink to much, what about you And do I really wanna be sober now? Sober now! Welcome into this endless loophole baby A paradise with invisible walls Where all the drinkers are bottomless pit Even if you try you will lose the war Wake up with headache Sure Never more I always say that everytime I fall Into the trap of A last round Where's my willpower when my glass is empty What kind of black magic is this This potion that you can't only taste Without falling in up to the neck A lemming in a video game The day after with your headache You always say never again...

On My Own 04:26
Trapped in me I have to deal with it With the worms crawling in my skin Hand in hand with this strange echo And the demons that I heard so Who am I when I not with me Am I weird or I’m an hero I’ve been here for such a long time I don’t know much but I think I can stay on my own I can stay yes I’m not crazy I can stay on my own Can’t running out, can’t running out from me I don’t know me but I guess Everything will be alright yes I can I’m not here, but I am there The least we can do now it’s seems The world is wide but I’m am small I’m well inside my hole with all my ghosts I’m not the one you expected me to be But that is life so deal with it I can stay on my own I can stay yes I’m not crazy I can stay on my own Can’t running out, can’t running out from meeeee Can’t really be with you Can’t really be me And all the things we said are words blowing in the wind There’s nothing left but me There’s nothing left but you We’re only passengers With jet lag in our lives

Without Fun 02:55
No... Don’t wanna be old before age Just like a stunted apple waste I wanna breath so Refill me please Another drink Time to go wild now I don’t wanna fade Please give me some fun today I don’t wanna wait Please give me more fun to stay Don’t wanna live without fun Can’t feel like a water glass half full or empty Or be like a fire camp slowly crackling Throw me gasoline ! (yeah) Crawling in the sand of a desert land Begging for water, becoming insane Plunge me in, I wanna drink “Today” : is what we have to say When we are more : “Tomorrow” With all the pain and sorrow There is no need to wait We are here to seize the day With lust and letting go So prefer Now to Then I don’t wanna fade Please give me some fun today I don’t wanna wait Please give me more fun to stay Don’t wanna live without fun I don’t wanna I don’t wanna I don’t wanna I don’t wanna Don’t wanna live without fun

War in my head Bombs on my shelves I’m losing everything The storm is raging S.O.S Cut the curtain Please let me drift away Far from this Turn all the lights off Switch the power off Time to sleep time to split Close the eyes, Watch the night falling I'm ready now so Take my brain And smash it loud Take away the pros and cons far from my mind Take my brain And plunge it down Deeper in the abyss i'll be fine Raise the anchor and cast off Fast your seat belt to take off Going nowhere fast for the first time Living a new life like an outcast No more fences on the way, break this chains for a new day Pull off this black veil and see, the world like it is, not how it seems Not how it seems… Turn off the light, it's the only way To find out all the things we say Lying on the seashore, Nothing counts anymore Take the monster in my head cause, It’s too much weight for me

Not Today 03:55
I woke up in a lemonday See the world in a yellow way And I walked around to see the rest Have a swim in an acid lake Feel the tears rolling in my eyes And the taste coming in my mouth When I saw a tree with plenty dots on the hill I picked some dots for a bunch of flowers Smell the perfume of this vegan fire Eat a piece of it, just to taste if yellow is as good as this I feel a Fire burning inside And the flood coming in my eyes And i flew away in a supernova and said I have to run to the top to see If the answers are waiting me And when I reached the gold point the sky was turning grey Noooo Please not today It’s not the deal I’m not ok And i run to the top to see If the answers were waiting me And when i reached the gold point the sky was turning grey So I opened a sky vein And the blood started to rain Paint the world in red with yellow fade And stardust falling everywhere Words are missing to describe This painting, I was terrified But when I touched the ground The tree on the hill was there I woke up in a lemonday See the world in a yellow way Eat a piece of it just to see how it’s gonna end Gonna end

All in All 03:47
Sometimes we know, sometimes we doubt Sometimes we put our head in a hole Sometimes we wish, but we moove not So what the hell do we wanna be? We often stand, where we don’t want Usually wait for what come not We always see what we wanna see But can we hear the message All in all we know We have to Wll in all we know We have to All in all we know We have to do All the things we wanna do Times goes by and we are trapped Running on the spot for hours and hours Two feets on the mud, my hairs are turning grey God please show me the way I'm not scared anymore, I'm waiting for my turn, maybe I should not I write this words but inside I still hear A whisper that say The whole wide world is new And all we have to do Is to try the best we can To become what we Dreamt for years This sparklings light away The meaning that we wanna give to this

There’s something when I’m with you Something I cannot explain Something that I go through A winter blow in a summer day I wish I could see your smile A sunny ray on my way But I just see your eyes Rolling as soon as i say There’s always something going wrong Somewhere you don’t belong There's always something in your head That Takes you far of the place There’s something when I’m with you Something I can’t understand Something come from outhere An hammer fall in a placid lake I wish an easy line but A rollercoaster instead It’s always complicated Bright side better than wrong way Na nanana nananananana

Cool Lagoon is a solo project I started after the release of our last EP with my other band Bikinis & Icecream. I wanted to come back to something more rough, more rock, more dirty, more punk. I was inspired by bands like DuneRats, WAVVES, Skegss but also GreenDay and many more.
It's an entirely autoproduced EP. I wrote all the songs and lyrics, played guitar, bass, drums and vocals. I recorded and mixed all this shit... and do the artwork.
It's definitely not perfect, but I'm very very proud to have achieved it.
Hope you will enjoy It !

Cool Lagoon loves you !
