Red Hot Chili Peppers - This Is The Kitt Lyrics






This is the kitt, I can't compare
A delicate new arrival
Check the commute I do declare
Lets sing a new revival

Chemical circus at the pub
Mentally she's departed
Cut me a check I'll cut your rug
Later we'll get bombarded

'Cause everybody knows

The game is full of highs and lows
Like your mother said
Girl your father is dead
Everybody knows
That life is full of highs and lows
Is there always red
In your wedding bed
Everybody knows

Officer please I just got there
Traveled from door to door
Haven't you seen my girlfriend's hair
What are we looking for

'Cause everybody knows...

This is the kitt I can't compare
A delicate new arrival
Check the commute I do declare
I think we have our bible

'Cause everybody knows...

Take me to the shore
Show me what it's for
Is there always red
In your wedding bed
Everybody knows
The game is full of cons and pros
Like your mother said
Girl your father's dead
Everybody knows

Red Hot Chili Peppers This Is The Kitt Comments
  1. M.... P....

    I'm With You Sessions is better than I'm With You....my opinion

  2. E.... S....

    These songs represent the Josh you saw on stage much better, than the majority of I'm with you and The Getaway.

  3. G.... ....

    Love Rick Rubin but I think that with Danger Mouse this and many other b-side songs would have make the cut! I'm beside you kicks ass I have to admit

  4. r.... k....

    I AM GONNA MISS JOSH

  5. B.... ....

    Reminds me of devils kind by the longshot

  6. m.... ....

    Femme Fatale vibes in the chorus

  7. H.... K....

    I love this song holy crap

  8. a.... a....

    Best song ever

  9. D.... C....

    SOMEONE TELL ME WHY THE FUCK IS THIS SONG BETTER THAN MORE THAN HALF OF THE SONGS IN I'M WITH YOU

  10. I.... Y....

    This is awesome...
    Goos sound from Josh...
    Thank you to make something new in this band

  11. E.... L....

    Am I the only one that thinks that this is a song that sounds like something they have made for By The Way?

  12. A.... P....

  13. W.... L....

    I think they flipped around what was considered B and what's considered A

  14. �.... �....

    I think that snare displacement killed the song. It could be so backbeat-driven!

  15. B.... 5....

    Greeting Song Part 2: Electric Boogaloo

  16. �.... ....

    marsterpiece. why didnt they contain this song in album!?

  17. g.... ....

    I think they needed to be on drugs, not to include some of these b side tracks, criminal

  18. m.... m....

    Fuck the producer of im with you. The band made a good decision changing him for the getaway album. Cutting all the amazing songs from the actual album and let the bad song remain... The guy is a stupid mf. If songs like this is the kitt, love of your life, hanalei, the sunset sleeps, pink as floyd and how it ends was on the album, it would be one of best of rhcp. Even beter than getaway maybe

    m.... m....

    Mr. Reuben Sandwich looks like he walked off the set of Duck Dynasty

  19. k.... '....

    Se tornou na minha opinião a melhor música do RHCP...

    That guitar part so crazy

  24. J.... K....

    this song is the kit I do declare!!!rhcp ALWAYS makes life seem perfect

  25. R.... ....

    ♫♪*inspector gadget*♫♪

  26. C.... l....

    Anyone in 2018? Damnn

    C.... l....

    Chili love the opinins &views may change with time..but the music stays just as awesome!!

    C.... l....

    2019 😁

  27. R.... t....

    Truly amazing. I wonder what the music video would be like.

  28. a.... ....

    huh huh

  29. a.... ....

    anyone knows why is it a b-side?

  30. �.... ....

    the guitar in this song makes me feel so happy, in love this song because of how chill and relaxing it is

  31. B.... ....

    Unpopular opinion here, I am a huge fan of john's style while he was with the chili's and I understand why a lot of people miss his sound in the band. But think about it the second time he left wasn't because of any problems with the band he had like the first time, he literally just felt it was time to move on. Which I think is very smart because he knew he'd had an amazing run with them already and bands generally should always be developing their sound and the introduction of a new guitarist really allowed for that. I know many people much prefer john's style and really don't appreciate josh enough, but tbh i'm glad that john left the band when he did, we have multiple amazing albums with him and now we have these new different sounding albums coming out with josh's style, that I REALLY like, I personally think his guitar style is really cool and his backing vocals are amazing too. This would never have happened with john still in the band, so I think it's a smart move on his part to allow the band to move into this new era. A band can't sound the same over multiple decades guys :p.

    B.... ....

    I agree with you, John was a blessing to the band, but he wanted to give someone else a chance that he already had.

    B.... ....

    Aaaaaand he's back

    B.... ....

    Now, when John is back, we'll hopefully experience awesome John era that will last forever

  32. B.... ....

    I keep coming back to this song, I can't stop listening to it! This song is one of my favourite RHCP songs there is!

  33. L.... ....

    Según con Rick Rubin "Dance Dance Dance" es mejor que esta canción

    L.... ....

    Está canción me recuerda a one hot minute y californication

  34. X.... Y....

    I didn't even know about the existence of this gem... Josh rules the shit on this one.

  35. �.... �....

    This song is better than the entire IWY album.

  36. G.... P....

    En mi opinión, los b-sides son como un regalo de la banda para la gran familia peppera; que no cualquiera puede escuchar y Realmente agradezco que existan y no me pregunto porque si o porque no están en los albunes oficiales, solo queda disfrutar

  37. E.... 6....

    It's funny how Josh brought about this nice, deep feeling with those choruses like this one; that bridge (I guess) in See You Around, and the one in Catch My Death. I still eargasm to their I'm With/Beside You songs.

  38. J.... M....

    Why the balls was this not on the album? It took me a while to warm to I'm With You ( It's one of my favorites now) but had this been on it, I would have been instantly sold.

  39. W.... W....

    Under rated!

  40. t.... i....

    JOSHH 😍😍😍

  41. G.... A....

    Hoooooooly shit!!!!!! My attention turned away from what the hell I was doing in a pico second as soon as this song started! Son of a bitch! I've had a huge respect for Josh for all he's done, but this just made me look at him at a whole new level! I gotta grab my Strat and learn this shit right gottdamn now! I love it! I wish I had a camera of the expression I had on my face when this song started!

    G.... A....

    Giovanni Adrian so.. have you learnt it yet?

  42. S.... M....

    Damit I love this fucking song

  43. C.... o....

    Josh tho... 👏🏻

  44. N.... T....

    this song is daddy tbh

  45. k.... ....

    it's like PROCOL HARUM ))

  46. T.... A....

    Very good!

  47. J.... ....

    love this song

  48. e.... w....

    there are great music here in im-with-you bside. but y it is not included in im with you album. . . .... . just to replace Dance Dance. . . and happines company??

    this is the kitt is better.. than dance dance

  49. S.... ....

    The number of views does not do the music justice. Quite a few of RHCP songs are under rated, loving the music, they can still make good music.

  50. w.... L....

    This is great

  51. M.... S....

    Detroit vibes from guitar.

  52. I.... v....

    love this song

  53. B.... R....

    Rick Rubin is a bastard - Victorian Machinery,Never is a Long Time,Pink as Floyd,this song,why these songs weren't placed on I'm with you?

    B.... R....

    To make money really. They choose the hits that tend to have more pop riffs so people can enjoy it easier. Getting signed to a label isn't a impressive thing anymore theyre just banks for musicians so they can make money off the success of the musician.

    B.... R....

    @LarrySexual Maybe ;)

    B.... R....

    It's not like the band didn't have any say on what went on the album. Where would RHCP be without Rubin? Nowhere. He is their George Martin, pushed them to do things they never would've done. Rick Rubin pushed Anthony to record Under the Bridge. That decision forever changed this band. In the end this is their album, their songs. He didn't write them, he didn't in the end decide the tracklisting...the band did. Consider this too...with The Getaway, Danger Mouse came in and hated much of what they had written and told them to throw it away. I am all for a producer inspiring and pushing a band to improve but to tell a band like this that their music isn't good enough is sort of bullshit. RHCP have been doing this longer than DM has. DM also is no Rick Rubin either, a guy who has revived and invented so many careers. Look at what he did for Johnny Cash! We also do not know the band's feelings on songs like this, songs that got left off. Each band member has a say on what goes on to the album. They take votes. Some stuff has been left off that I am sure some band members wished went on the album. Some songs maybe they hated. The Greeting Song on BSSM...Anthony hates it but clearly the others liked it. Look at The Beatles.

  54. t.... s....

    Love this sound!!

  55. D.... M....

    Don't you quite me, rhcp is shit now. If you listen freaky styley you will see how stupid is this.

  56. N.... K....

    Maravilhosos sempre!

    N.... K....

    sempre *-*

  57. D.... M....

    This is big shit. RHCP totaly turned into a pop. SHIT

    D.... M....

    quiet...kid , this is awesome

  58. T.... V....

    very good but it could be better with some flea grooves on bass and anthony rapping on verses 👍👍👍.
    anyway i like it

  59. D.... P....

    The verse sounds like halloween themed

  60. D.... P....

    Josh!!!

  61. R.... C....

    i maniaccc for this songgg, and still ringing in my head :v

  62. R.... ....

    That double effect voice (does it have a name?) is beautiful. This song is so much better on headphones!

  63. N.... D....

    how come this is not in the main album... Ask me, it's the best riff i've heard from josh, how come he's not more like this, in like, every other song....

    N.... D....

    IM WONDERING THAT TOO!!

  64. S.... T....

    I don't understand anything. This song is of a CD , or what?

    S.... T....

    +Silvina Tevez ... Album vinyl 12", and Also a 7" vinyl. From year 2013

    S.... T....

    Why vinyl ? why not a normal cd ? haha , if I have vinyl player I can not play it. It's just a cd ornament

    S.... T....

    @Silvina Tevez ...Collectors want vinyl. Actually, last year in the UK, more vinyl was sold than CD's. For the first time. And vinyl sounds better. So the demand for vinyl is higher. And its going to grow

    S.... T....

    thank you!

    S.... T....

    Hi Silvina. This song is part of 17 songs that it wasn't included on I'm With You (2011 album). So, they launched them about 2 years later

  65. S.... S....

    sounds like can't stop and pretty little ditty

    S.... S....

    +S Shokoor shutup there g'man

  66. D.... S....

    chili peppers are my favourite band and artists of all time. I even have their logo tattooed on me but I'm With You wasn't a good album. I thought it was them learning to gel with Josh but I've realised it's the way Anthony sings on the album, and it's the same with this tune. The track is perfect... Ant's tone and melody has taken a dip. Dark Nacesseties seems to be a return to form for him, though.

  67. M.... M....

    perfect ❤🎶👊

  68. L.... M....

    How come this song didnt make it to the album??

    L.... M....

    doesn't have the vibe i guess

    L.... M....

    I'm With You was made with all the wrong songs. Magpies on Fire, Love of Your Life, Long Progressions and this REALLY DESERVED TO BE IN IT.

    L.... M....

    @Filipe Santos and pink as floyd!

    L.... M....

    This is from a collection of Singles made and released after Im with you but they’re meant to have the same style/Vibe but weren’t made until 3 years later. Hope that helps

    L.... M....

    @Filipe Santos Many of RHCP's bonus tracks and bsides are way better than songs in the actual albums. Dunno how they do it lol

  69. d.... ....

    This is fucking awesome, how have i only just heard it

  70. A.... R....

    I ♥ this song

  71. x.... ....

    I want to know the meaning of this beauty!

    x.... ....

    There is a band called This is The Kit, maybe Anthony was inspired by them.

    x.... ....

    look on "Genius Lyrics" website

  72. T.... ....

    Came here for that wicked awesome guitar intro because....yes.

  73. C.... B....

    God damn it, play some of these live!

    C.... B....

    that would be hillarious!

  74. e.... w....

    downloaded
    , , , yeeaaaaah

  75. e.... w....

    woww josh

  76. t.... ....

    The only way this song would be better in my opinion, is (1) if Flea's bass line was a little more peppy, and (2) if Anthony rapped on the verses. I have no problem with Anthony singing, and I think the chorus is amazing, but the verses would stand out more and compliment the guitar more if he rapped. Similar to way Around the World is laid out.

    t.... ....

    tubejohnny2006
    2:38 does this count lol

    t.... ....

    cool little guitar solo but i don't think the bass changed at all.

  77. D.... ....

    I love this Josh rift <3!

    D.... ....

    +Diegloyer te quiero

    D.... ....

    +Alma Hortelano Escribano hola

  78. b.... ....

    why the hell half of this stuff is better than the songs in the album?

    b.... ....

    +blueflare I thought that too, but Im with you is a great album! songs like look around, police station, happiness love company and meet me at the corner are masterpieces!

    b.... ....

    Yes those are great songs (meet me at the corner is lovely, my favourite of the album). and I love monarchy of roses too. but songs like annie wants a baby, dance dance dance, goodbye hooray (besides the bass solo) are really weak songs in my opinion.
    (PS: sei italiano pure tu? =) )

    b.... ....

    Thats right lol! Im from Argentina, I have Italian ancestors

  79. m.... a....

    this is great

  80. J.... C....

    RHCP Juventude Eterna em meu coração

  81. K.... A....

    I LOVE THIS TRACK !

  82. B.... M....

    If they did an album where Josh is playing some funky stuff like this it would be ammmaazingg

    B.... M....

    +Casper van Helvoirt Where is it? :(

    B.... M....

    @João Gabriel they say that they are recording the album right now..

    B.... M....

    +Nico Amerio You have already know the answer. Dark neccesitties arent funky ;d Some kind of pop

    B.... M....

    @CytrynProjects It's kind of psychedelic. I'm in love with Dark Nec.

  83. S.... P....

    This could have been a single in the official album easily.

    S.... P....

    Sir Psycho Sexy True

  84. N.... Z....

    This is  josh's ability

  85. L.... H....

    To me this is the best guitar riff Josh has done so far with the Chili Peppers.

    L.... H....

    I like open close riff too :)

    L.... H....

    Now it's the longest wave beginning riff

    L.... H....

    I AGREE

    L.... H....

    Now that The Gateway has been released, I gotta go for Sick Love as Josh's best riff. It's a killer.

  86. w.... s....

    I think that this band lost something big when John left but this song is closer to the quality of the John era stuff

  87. R.... ....

    I just came when I heard the intro

  88. J.... C....

    I wasn't too sure about this song at first but the more I listen to it the more it's becoming an absolute favorite. Great guitar tone indeed, and this is coming from a huge Frusciante fan.

  89. A.... ....

    That toan is awesome

  90. s.... ....

    Nice nice nice

  91. S.... J....

    this is an absolute banger

  92. j.... t....

    This is the best music of the album

  93. B.... P....

    This band will never get old. Chili Peppers for life :)

    B.... P....

    @Red hot Anrob LONG LIVE TO PEPPERS :))

    B.... P....

    I actually kept playing this song over and over. I THINK IM GOING CRAZY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAVHSHAHAVAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHGAGAGAGAHAHHAHAHAHAHH

  94. L.... K....

    Excellent choice of name for a tune

  95. t.... ....

    My fav one from the IWY B-sides :)

  96. C.... F....

    okay josh klinghoffer is officially really sexy for playing this intro

    C.... F....

    @W. Spaminodas :D

    C.... F....

    I don't know about "officially sexy". You'd know that better than I. However, I can say his riff in this song is officially beautifully nasty and rude. I dig it. Deeply.

    C.... F....

    Chiara Fattore e asgard

  97. R.... ....

    sick intro :D

  98. M.... ....

    Wonder if Anthony had Take Me Out to the Ball Game on a loop before recording. Good tune
