about

Written with and produced by Greg Holden, “Don’t Do Nothing” is a song about escaping your own cycles and moving towards the things that you want in life. The band is comprised of Portland’s The Quick & Easy Boys with Michael Elson on keys and Haley Johnsen and Jacob Westfall on backing vocals.

lyrics

Lost in a labyrinth
Haven’t seen the sun in a week
Dark days turn into dark nights
Motivation is a frozen stream
Would it be easier to ride it out
Under the covers of a warm bed
You’re either building up a memory
Or actively trying to forget

That if you don’t do nothing
Nothing’s gonna come to you
And if you don’t say something
Someone else is gonna say it for you

The universe is a funny place
Ever expanding through time and space
Endless outcomes to be embraced
There must be one to be desired
It’s not a pass code or a secret club
It’s not a handshake or a belly rub
It’s a simple game of push and shove
It’s a lighting of the fire

If you don’t do nothing
Nothing’s gonna come to you
And if you don’t say something
Someone else is gonna say it for you
Ain’t it all already figured out
You want to do it, better do it now
If you don’t do nothing
Nothing’s gonna come to you (all right)
