about

"The Boys Ranch live up to their newfound reputation of being 'the best surf band east of the San Fernando Valley' with their surfy interpretation of The Shins ballad 'The Fear'."

We originally covered this song for a contest in April 2017 that The Shins ran when releasing their newest album "Heartworms". The contest's prize was the honor of winning their tour van. We did not win, but we made a great record worth releasing. We hope it brings some FEAR of the impending warmth that spring will soon bring to us. Hang loose y'all!

lyrics

The fear
I feel fear
Of all the stupid things
A man could feel
While his freedom rings
He squanders the deal
What am I, blind?
What took me this long?
Can we hit rewind
On somebody's magic bong? Oh

Come back and touch my face
Feel for fever in the night
You look into my eyes
But you don't really recognize me anymore

Passed another pointless year
Foaming at the mouth
I with my hands ever up
And yours stretching out
I know I've run out of luck
This fear is a terrible drug
If I only had sense enough
To let it give way to love
