Story Behind The Song
'Dislocation' is a song about displaced peoples from all walks of life in almost every continent on earth. Written by a 22 year old in Dunedin, New Zealand.
Song Description
Smooth, laid-back, but with a twist of bitters... 'Dislocation' is from Kiwi producer Jean-14 and has recieved some high rotation on stereos around here!
Given a different chord progression and without the vocals, this could have been a crunk-ish west coast jam, Snoop appearance and all. Think acts like Portishead or Massive Attack.

Lyrics
What the hell are we doing here?
What the hell be doing here.
What the hell are we doing here?
What the hell be doing here.
Tell me a dislocated story
About how you left with all your glory
What the hell we be doing... what we're doing here
Oh, no no no, listen up
(listen up, listen up)
(C) 2005 Jean-14
