[Chorus]
Way up, way up
Way up to the sky
When everybody here is sneaking in and getting high
Way up, way up
Way up to the moon
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you

[Verse 1]
Enough, enough
There's no celebrities here
So why's the bouncer taking everything so seriously?
It's you and I
It's cool you feel the same
Like why's the DJ here?
If he's just pressing play

[Pre-Chorus]
Kickin' in the basement
Kickin' in the basement
Hatin' all the same things too
If I need a pick me up
Would you come and pick me up?
I could really use a bud like you
To pick me

[Chorus]
Way up, way up
Way up to the sky
When everybody here is sneaking in and getting high
Way up, way up
Way up to the moon
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you
Way up, way up
Way up to the sky
When everybody here is sneaking in and getting high
Way up, way up
Way up to the moon
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you

[Verse 2]
Enough, enough
There's no one here that we know
I think I knew a girl who knew the host
But she's heading home
We're standing
Laughing at the disco ball
Like who'd invest in that?
When no one's looking at it

[Pre-Chorus]
Kickin' in the basement
Kickin' in the basement
Hatin' all the same things too
If I need a pick me up
Would you come and pick me up?
I could really use a bud like you
To pick me

[Chorus]
Way up, way up
Way up to the sky (Way up to the sky)
When everybody here is sneaking in and getting high
Way up, way up
Way up to the moon
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you
Way up, way up
Way up to the sky
When everybody here is sneaking in and getting high (Woah, and getting high)
Way up, way up
Way up to the moon
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you (Go!)
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you (Like you)
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you

[Outro]
Boy it's good to know
Boy it's good to know
To pick me
Way up, way up
Way up to the sky
When everybody here is sneaking in and getting high
Way up, way up
Way up to the moon
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you
Way up, way up
Way up to the sky
When everybody here is sneaking in and getting high
Way up, way up
Way up to the moon
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you (Go!)
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you
Boy it's good to know I got a bud like you

AJR

The indie-pop band AJR—three brothers born and raised in New York City—achieved a startlingly quick level of success with 2013 track “I’m Ready", a buoyant electro-pop smash that was featured in the trailer for Amy Schumer’s Trainwreck and became certified US Platinum in 2015.

Adam Met (bass/vocals), is the oldest brother, a Columbia University graduate. Ryan Met (ukulele/piano/vocals), a bespectacled ‘94 kid is the band’s main songwriter, also having co-written Andy Grammer hits “Back Home” and the certified gold “Good To Be Alive”. Jack Met (vocals/guitar), is the lead vocalist who splits time between the band and attending Columbia.

AJR began in 2005, busking on the streets and in the parks of New York. Raised on vinyls from the 50s and 60s, AJR was initially inspired by the likes of The Beach Boys and Frankie Valli, but the original sound they’ve now created resembles a modern mix of those classic sounds, with flavors of Imagine Dragons, fun., and hip-hop production elements pointing towards Kanye West.
