“From Our Rooftop Down” is the first track of the four-track bonus disc of The Weight is a Gift. The loosely structured lyrics are about adolescent memories like sexual experiences and parental advice.
Unlike the other songs of The Weight is a Gift, which were recorded at Hall of Justice in Seattle...
Looking from our rooftop down
Bright yellow Danish plastic plates
I nearly got pulled out of this but I'm back
First go swim in a woody lake
Back to my room
After a Chaplin film in school
You were reaching down my pants
And Roxanne sounded scary
On my first mission years before
Before sending me out the door
My dad said
"Turn left in third avenue and walk four blocks"
I turned right
And walked a long time
It's complicated out here
And you know it
From The Rooftop Down was written by Daniel Lorca & Ira Elliot & Matthew Caws.
Nada Surf released From The Rooftop Down on Tue Sep 20 2005.
