INTRO
(ocean sounds bleeding into a building synth)
Sycamore Cove
Every year
Same crew
Different war
VERSE 1
Boards waxed up before the sun came through
Sycamore lineup doing what it do
LA County pulling up with something to prove
Mugu already locked into the groove
Ten man relay, one board, one dream
Looks like chaos but it runs like a machine
Paddle out hard through the morning break
Everything on the line, everything at stake
PRE CHORUS
Strange Case warming up on the sand
Salt in the air, beer in hand
This rivalry older than half this crew
LA County we are coming for you
CHORUS
Ten man Mugu running the coast
This is the thing we talk about the most
Sycamore Cove when the swell is alive
Watch us paddle out and watch us survive
LA County you can have the trophy dream
Mugu crew is not what it seems
Every year we line up and we go
Ten man relay put on a show
VERSE 2
Giggler after dark, nobody sleeping
Promises made that nobody’s keeping
Bonfire going, Strange Case loud
Mugu lifeguards running the crowd
Paddled through six foot sets all day
Somehow still have energy to stay
This is not a competition anymore
This is a religion and Sycamore is our shore
FESTIVAL BREAKDOWN
(big euphoric synth drop, emotional build)
Thirteen seasons on the tower
This is our finest hour
Every paddle every stroke
Every joke every soak
Built this crew from nothing but salt and will
Sycamore Cove we are running still
CHORUS
Ten man Mugu running the coast
This is the thing we talk about the most
Sycamore Cove when the swell is alive
Watch us paddle out and watch us survive
BRIDGE
(chanted, crowd energy)
Mugu Mugu
Hold the line
Mugu Mugu
One more time
LA County
Not today
Sycamore Cove
Mugu’s way
OUTRO
(fading over ocean and distant Strange Case guitar)
See you next year
Same beach
Same crew
Same war
Mugu forever
