More Kicks (Long Day’s Journey into Night… Life)

Lyrics

Part I of "More Kicks (Long Day's Journey into Night... Life)" [Verse 1] I was looking for trouble I wasn't looking for a wife I wasn't looking for an answer To the meaning of life [Verse 2] I was young and stupid I didn't feel no pain I was looking for trouble I didn't feel no shame [Verse 2 Tag:] I was heading for a long day's journey In the night - light- I wanted more kicks [Verse 3] I was looking for a party I was looking for fun I was headed for disaster I was the son of a gun [Verse 4] I was young and stupid I didn't feel no pain I was looking for trouble I didn't feel no shame [Verse 4 Tag:] I was heading for a long day's journey In the nigt - "life": I wanted more kids [Extended Instrumental saxophone to guitar Back to saxophone] [Part 2 of "More Kicks (Long Day's Journery into Night... Life)" (see note at end **) begins with an increased tempo. Mostly instrumental, it is punctuated by "ooh, more kicks", as an aimless rock & roll "jam", but more intense solo's] Ooh yeah! For kicks Yeah More kicks (ooh-yeah) More kicks (ooh-yeah) More kicks More kicks (Drums to guitar) (ooh-yeah) Morе kicks, hey More kicks, hey ooh yеah Want More kicks More kicks [Intensified guitar solo and harmonica/honky tonk piano] Ooh, yeah [pattern and words subsequently randomized, delivered the mix] between rock power ballad and jazz More kicks More kicks (ooooh, oooh) (ooh yeah) More kicks (ooh) More kicks (ooh) More kicks (ooh) (oooh) (ooh) More kicks **note: "Part 2" is meant herein to distinguish the song's shift in mood and tempo. Its lyrical intent may be best-served by the free-form lack of lyrics in "Part 2" (or "extended outro")
