Ambush would also have worked as a rock n roll tiki lounge song. It definitely had an east Asian sound. Peel of the sound effects and “Indian ambush!” and it would have been better. My humble opinion.

I think it’s probably a shout out to some radio listeners. My theory is that theyve been at a beach, lake, swimming hole, or pool all day. Hence the “raisin people” because of wrinkly wet skin. Of course, I’m on my second vodka, so don’t pay attention to my rambling. I love you…
