1. 개요

2021년 3월 26일 발매된 AJR의 정규 4집. AJR에 따르면 지금까지 만든 앨범 중 가장 이상한 앨범이자 가장 마음에 드는 앨범이라고 하는데, 코로나 19로 인한 격리 중에 방안에서 앨범을 만들면서 비교적 다양한 종류의 곡들을 만들고 싶었다고 한다.

실제로 수록된 곡들을 보면 분위기가 사뭇 다른 것을 알 수 있는데, My Play Christmas In June과 같은 매우 개인적이고 서정적인 곡 부터, 사회 비판적인 메시지를 담은 3 O'Clock Things Way Less Sad, Adventure is Out There, Bummerland와 같은 신나고 낙관적인 곡들까지 분위기가 서로 다른 것을 볼 수 있다.

AJR은 원래부터 사용하는 악기들의 폭이 넓은 편이였는데, 이번 앨범의 이름이 OK ORCHESTRA인 만큼 앨범 전체적으로 오케스트라 풍의 다양한 악기들을 사용하였다.

AJR의 각 앨범들은 이전 앨범의 곡 하나의 주제가 이어지는 형태로 구성되는데, OK ORCHESTRA의 주제는 3집의 Karma에서 기반하였다고 한다. #

원래는 4집이 나올 시기에 3집 Neotheater의 디럭스 앨범을 내려고 했으나, 코로나 19 때문에 취소되고 4집에 더 많은 힘을 들일 수 있었다고 한다. 수록된 곡들의 분위기와 가사를 보면 대부분 힘든 현실을 긍정적이게 살아자가는 메세지를 담고 있는 곡들이 많은데, 여러모로 코로나 19의 영향을 많이 받은 것으로 보인다.

OK Overture

Bang! Chritsmas in June Humpty Dumpty Joe The trick Way less sad World’s smallest violin Adventure is Out There 3 O'Clock Things

These are our drums
This is our melody
(Da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da)
And here's our song

Da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da

So let me play my violin for you (Bang, Bang, Bang!)
Ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah

So let me play my violin for you
The truth is that I'm screwed..
Still, Joe, do you think I'm cool?

I got friends in a lot of weird places
Wonder if they're gonna call, depending what my face is (one, two, three, four)
I got friends in a lot of weird places
Wonder if they're gonna call, depending what my face is
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Humpty Dumpty, when Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said, "Screw it, I'ma smile right through it.
And I'll scream when no one's around"

Humpty Dumpty, when Humpty Dumpty
When Humpty Dumpty went down
He said, "Screw it, I'ma smile right through it.
And I'll scream when no one, when no one
When no one's around, around, around, around"
Da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
When no one's around..."

One day, maybe someday, I'll be so out of touch
I'll become a trumpet or a drum set in a sad orchestra
One day, maybe someday, in a world speeding up
It's getting hard, so very hard to keep up

One day, maybe someday, I'll be so out of touch
I'll become a trumpet or a drum set In a sad orchestra
One day, I won't know what to write
And I can't be eighteen my whole life
But I'm too fuckin' young to feel so fuckin' old
But I'll try and I'll try and I'll try
But I'm not dead yet, so I guess I'll be alright
Bang, bang, bang
But I'm way less sad
Adventure is out there
Come on, guy
Bang, bang, bang
But it's all I have
Oh, I'm not dead yet, so I guess I'll be alright

2.2. Bummerland

Bummerland
[ 가사 보기 ]
Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Give a cheer
Cause you’re only going up from here

This month
I got seven haircuts
And now my hair is all gone
It’s sad but
I’ve been alone for too long
So I keep getting haircuts

It’s my all time low
And I just can’t wait
Cause the quicker I’m there
Is the quicker I’ll say

Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Give a cheer
Cause you’re only going up from here

Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Sorry dear
But you’re only going up from here

My friends
Always pay for my drinks
I can’t afford no nice things
But I hope
My bank account gets so low
Even zero
So next year
When I buy that first beer
I’ll be a goddamn hero

It’s my all time low
And I just can’t wait
Cause the quicker I’m there
Is the quicker I’ll say

Bummerland
Here I am
Better nix my summer plans
Bummerland
Give a cheer
But you’re only going up from here

Bummerland
Here I am
And there ain’t no funner land
Bummerland
It’s kinda weird
But you’re only going up from here

2.3. 3 O'Clock Things

3 O'Clock Things
[ 가사 보기 ]
Come on guy, I promise everything will be alright, be okay
Your eyes are tired but keep 'em open
'Cause you wouldn't want to miss a thing
Come on guy, I promise everything will be alright, be okay
Your eyes are tired but keep 'em open
'Cause you wouldn't want to miss a thing


It's kinda funny how I paid for college when YouTube was an option
But then I would've had to spend my best years
Skipping ads and reading comments
And when the hell did advertisements get so good? They're like narcotics
So now I'm spending every penny I own
I should've allotted to finishing college

It's kinda funny how I keep debating
If someone's shy or if they hate me
I feel like everyone I know right now is
Hooking up and getting wasted (Without me)
And maybe sex is overrated but we're too shy to ever say it
So we pretend we're all amazing
It's 3 am, I should be sleeping


Would you go running if you saw the real me?
Maybe you'd love 'em
Yeah, maybe you'd feel me
But I'll never ask you, no that's super scary
Sorry to bail, it's already 3 o'clock
It's too hard to tell if anything's real or not


It's kinda funny how you vote for someone
To vote for someone, to vote for someone
And you might end up with someone evil but you say that he means well
If I keep on talking politics, my friends will dip, they're over it
If I keep on talking politics, I'm Hamilton without the hits


Would you go running if you saw the real me?
Maybe you'd love 'em
Yeah, maybe you'd feel me
But I'll never ask you, no that's super scary
Sorry to bail, it's already 3 o'clock
It's too hard to tell if anything's real or not

Come on guy, I promise everything will be alright, be okay
Your eyes are tired but keep 'em open
'Cause you wouldn't want to miss a thing

(Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da)


Isn't this obvious, am I insane
Let's blame our parents 'cause they taught us their ways
Stay out of politics, stay on the fence
Stay out of all of it to keep half your fans

Isn't this obvious, am I insane
There might be two sides to everything that you say
It's all a bit cloudy but there's one thing I know
That if you're fucking racist then don't come to my show

(No, we have to do one more)

2.4. My Play

My Play
[ 가사 보기 ]
I put on a play in my old house
In my cape, jumping on the old couch
Putting up lights when it’s cold out
Mom and dad, both seats sold out
Show you my play

Haven’t seen the old house lately
Wonder if they found my spaceship
I don’t want my own love wasted
Tell me this is what you’re saying:

If you both outgrew one another
I could start now, looking for a lover
But if love dies, do I fucking bother
I just really really really really really wanna
Show you my play

And I don’t wanna do it for Dad
At Dad’s new place

I worked really really really really hard
Lemme show you my play

And I don’t wanna do it twice
Cause it’s not the same

I’ve been on dates, bringing flowers
Tryna’ be great for an hour
You and me might go sour
But if we don’t hold out, then we’re cowards

I put on a play in my basement
Mom and dad smiling faces
But now I don’t know if they faked it
Guess everything is complicated

If you both outgrew one another
I could start now, looking for a lover
But if love dies, do I fucking bother
I just really really really really really wanna
Show you my play

And I don’t wanna do it for Dad
At Dad’s new place

I worked really really really really hard
Lemme show you my play

And I don’t wanna do it twice
Cause it’s not the same

You did everything everything everything that you could,
We do everything everything everything till it’s through
I’ll do everything everything everything when I’m you

But when I show you my play
Will you pretend you didn’t know
If I make a mistake
It’s gonna get really really really really bad
Before it’s okay
But maybe you’ll forget it all
While you’re watching my play

2.5. Joe

Joe
[ 가사 보기 ]
I believed in God back in eighth grade
He could smoke an eighth on a school day
Remember when you laughed at my last name?
Now I go by Met, is that less lame
Of a last name?

I believed in God back in '09
Always down to hang he had no time, yeah
But in a couple of years, I'll be so out of here
I'll have a lotta new friends and I won't even care


I don't ever think of you
I got too much stuff to do
Should've left you back in school
Joseph, do you think I'm...
I don't ever think of you
Look at all this stuff I do
I played shows in Belarus
Now Joe, do you think I'm cool?
Do you think I'm cool?


I could make a joke but it feels strange
Every time she laughed it would feel fake
But you could make her laugh in a real way
Yeah, I still use your jokes and they go great

It took a little while but I found love
I thought you'd reply, you just thumbed up
I play a lot of shows but you don't come
I don't even mind this is so dumb, so dumb


I don't ever think of you
I got too much stuff to do
Should've left you back in school
Joseph, do you think I'm...
I don't ever think of you
Look at all this stuff I do
Probably not as much as you
Still, Joe, do you think I'm cool?

Do you think I'm cool?
I don't ever think of you
I don't ever think of you
I don't ever think of you
I don't ever think of you
I don't ever think of you


I got friends all up the coast
Proud of all the songs I wrote
But I can't take this backpack off
It comes with me where I go

Maybe I'll put out this song
And I won't change your name at all
Maybe then you'll call me up
And you'll tell me how cool I got

2.6. Adventure is Out There

Adventure is Out There
[ 가사 보기 ]
I keep losing my socks
Where the hell do they go?
I bet they're finally free
Floating somewhere in the sea
Do they miss my feet?

I keep losing my socks
I got nothing to wear
I bet they're at her place
A house where I can't show my face
How I wanna be there


Holy moly, it's a real do-nothing day
I could change address and try another state
I could change my name, it won't do anything
Adventure is out there (Adventure is out there)
So why am I in here (So why am I in here)
Today?


Think I'm losing my mind
Apathetic and tired
Think where they could be
Some hotel in Germany
Hope they're loving the ride


Holy moly, it's a real do-nothing day
I could change address and try another state
I could change my name, it won't do anything
Adventure is out there (Adventure is out there)
So why am I in here (So why am I in here)
Today?


I bought me some new socks
I won't lose them I'm sure
And someday hopefully
I'll slip away and they'll lose me
And I'll be seeing the world


Holy moly, it's a real do-nothing day
I could change address and try another state
I could change my name, it won't do anything
Adventure is out there (Adventure is out there)
So why am I in here (So why am I in here)
Today?

Why am I in here today?
Why am I in here today?

2.7. Bang!

Bang!
[ 가사 보기 ]
I get up I get down
And I’m jumping around
And the rumpus and ruckus are comfortable now
Been a hell of a ride
But I’m thinking it’s time to grow

So I got an apartment
Across from the park
Put quinoa in my fridge
Still I’m not feeling grown
Been a hell of a ride
But I’m thinking it’s time to go
(Here we go)

So put your best face on everybody
Pretend you know this song everybody
Come hang
Let’s go out with a bang

I’m way too young to lie here forever
I’m way too old to try so whatever
Come hang
Let’s go out with a bang

Feel like I’m gonna puke
Cause my taxes are due
Do my password begin with a one or a two?
Been a hell of a ride
But I’m thinking it’s time to grow
(Metronome)

Man I'm up to something
Oo-dee-la-dee-doe
Thank you all for coming
I hope you like the show
Cause it’s on a budget
So oo-dee-la-dee-doe
Yeah come on here we go
Yeah come on
(Here we go)

So put your best face on everybody
Pretend you know this song everybody
Come hang
Let’s go out with a bang

I’m way too young to lie here forever
I’m way too old to try so whatever
Come hang
Let’s go out with a bang

Been a hell of a ride
But I’m thinking it’s time to go

So put your best face on everybody
Pretend you know this song everybody
Come hang
Let’s go out with a bang

I’m way too young to lie here forever
I’m way too old to try so whatever
Come hang
Let’s go out with a bang

2.8. The Trick

The Trick
[ 가사 보기 ]
I've got a dog, and my dog can dance
Just not in public, and not with my friends
I got a girl and she's 28
Now I'm the coolest guy
In all of eighth grade

I know a kid that you've never met
His dad is a rockstar, we smoked in his van
I know a trick
Do you wanna see?
I can be anything that I pretend to be


We'll get out of this
We'll get out of this too
I'm not proud of this
But I'm not proud of the truth
And if you run from me
Then I'll use my trick on you

The truth is that I'm screwed


I went to France and danced in the rain
And told you all about it on our first date
My dad doesn't lie, so you can't meet my dad
'Cause you fell in love with the me that went to France


We'll get out of this
We'll get out of this too
I'm not proud of this
But I'm not proud of the truth
And if you run from me
Then I'll use my trick on you

The truth is that we're screwed


We'll get out of this
'Cause I love you, I do
We'll get out of this
'Cause I love you, it's true
But if you're doubting this
If you're doubting that I do

Then oh my God, I'm screwed

Your happy friends call you depressing
'Cause you wonder why we're all alive
Your downer friends think you're too happy, too happy
'Cause you still celebrate sometimes

Your hippie friends call you a sellout
'Cause you buckle down and get a job
You still get high, but you're no hippie, no hippie
But all your work friends think you are


I guess the last time you had any fun
Was way back when you weren't anyone


So goodbye, ordinaryish people
We had quite the run, didn't we, though
But you gotta be somebody sometime
I don't wanna pack up and leave though
When you're nobody then nobody minds


Your pretty friends, they call you ugly
Your ugly friends, they call you vain
No, you're not stupid, you're just special, special
Well, that's what all your smart friends say


I guess the last time you had any fun
(I guess the last time you had any fun)
Was way back when you weren't anyone

So goodbye, ordinaryish people

I don't wanna pack up and leave though

If you get sad, then I'll feel bad
That I told you at all

2.11. World's Smallest Violin

World's Smallest Violin
[ 가사 보기 ]
My grandpa fought in World War Two
He was such a noble dude
I can't even finish school
Missed my mom, and left too soon
His dad was a fireman
Who fought fires so violent
I think I bored my therapist
While playing him my violin

(Oh my God) That's so insane
(Oh my God) That's such a shame
Next to them, my shit don't feel so grand
But I can't help myself from feeling bad
I kinda feel like two things can be said (One, two, three, four)

The world's smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon (that's right, that's right)
I'll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
Just let me play my violin for you

My grandpa fought in World War Two
When he was such a noble dude
Man, I feel like such a fool
I got so much left to prove
All my friends have vaping friends
They're so good at making friends
I'm so scared of caving in
Is that entertaining yet?

(Oh my God) That's so insane
(Oh my God) That's such a shame
Next to them, my shit don't feel so grand
But I can't help myself from feeling bad
I kinda feel like two things can be said (One, two, three, four)

The world's smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon (that's right, that's right)
I'll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
Just let me play my violin for you

Somewhere in the universe
Somewhere, someone's got it worse
Wish that made it easier
Wish I didn't feel the hurt

The world's smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon

I'll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
All up and down a city street
While try'na put my mind at ease
Like finishing this melody
This feels like a necessity
So this could be the death of me
Or maybe just a better me

Now come in with the tympanies
And take a shot of Hennessy
I know I'm not there mentally
But you could be the remedy
So let me play my violin for you!

Christmas In June
[ 가사 보기 ]
(OK, I'm ready)


New Year's Eve
I was at a festival in New Orleans
You were in Tribeca kissin' nobody
I owe you one, yes I do

Valentine's Day
We decided we would do the whole damn thing
But I played to an empty gym in Iowa state
I guess I owe you that too


I try so hard to be so happy
Are you happy too?
Do do do do...


Plan on this
You're no longer gonna be the plan I miss
I won't ever let you down, but just in case
Can we do Christmas in June?

Oh my God
How lucky am I to have two things I love?
Makes it that much easier to fuck it up
In case I miss it, can we do Christmas in June?


I skipped prom
I thought I would blow up from that radio spot
Remember how you chuckled when you heard that song?
But you won't be laughin' soon

One big day
One big show will make them know my name
But if it ends up falling on our wedding day
Oh God, don't make me choose


I try so hard to be so happy
Are you happy too?
I know you try to...


Plan on this
You're no longer gonna be the plan I miss
I won't ever let you down, but just in case
Can we do Christmas in June?

Oh my God
How lucky am I to have two things I love?
Makes it that much easier to fuck it up
I hate to do this
Can we do Christmas in June?


Ba-da-da ba-da-da ba-da-da dah
Da da da da da da
Ba-da-da ba-da-da ba-da-da dah
Ba-da-da ba-da-da ba-da-da dah (ah ah ah)

Da da da da da da (wah ah)
Ba-da-da ba-da-da ba-da-da dah (wah ah ah)
Da da da da da da wah (hey hey hey hey)
Ba-da-da ba-da-da ba-da-da dah (hey hey hey hey)
Da da da da da da


Plan on this
You're no longer gonna be the plan I miss
I won't ever let you down, but just in case
Can we do Christmas in June?

Oh my God
How lucky am I to have two things I love?
Makes it that much easier to fuck it up
I hate to do this
Don't wanna lose this
Can we do Christmas in June?


Hold on love
A little longer while I get the album done
And if I get to tour it, wouldn't that be fun
But that's one less month with you

Holy shit
Now I'm sittin' thinkin' 'bout what else I'll miss
Darling, if we're ever gonna have a kid
Don't wanna miss it

Can we just have him in June?

앨범 자체의 퀄리티는 이전 앨범인 3집 Neotheater과 5집 The Maybe Man보다 비교적 떨어진다는 평이 있으나[7], 수록곡 Bang!이 2020년 빌보드 차트 8위에 오르고, Way Less Sad가 2021년에 54위, World's Smallest Violin이 2022년에 91위에 오르는 등 앨범 실적은 역대 앨범들 중 가장 큰 성과를 이루어 냈다.

4. 여담

  • 여러 팬들의 추측에도 불구하고 Turning Out Pt. iii는 이번 앨범에 수록되지 않았다. 그러나 다음 앨범인 The Maybe Man에 수록됐다.
  • 제목이 라디오헤드 OK Computer와 비슷하다.
  • 수록곡 Adventure is Out There은 원래 'Socks'라는 이름으로 3집 Neotheater에 수록될 예정이었으나, 수록되지 못하고 이 앨범에 수록되었다고 한다.
  • 확인된 데모송들로는 가장 유명한 Bummerland의 데모송인 “Outside” 그다음으로 유명한 OK Overture의 포함된 데모송 ”Kill The Joke” 3 O'Clock Things의 데모송인 “Writer’s Block” World's Smallest Violin의데모버전과 Way Less Sad의 데모송인 “Winning”등이 있다
  • 4집의 초기 구상때엔 앨범의 이름이 MAD ORCHESTRA였다고 한다. 이름에서도 알 수 있듯이 훨씬 더 어둡고 흉악한(?) 느낌의 앨범으로 만들려고 했다고. 그 예시로 Yes I'm A Mess의 데모버전중 하나인 "So What"과 앞서 서술했던 3 O'Clock Things의 데모버전인 "Writer's Back"이 Way Less Sad, Bummerland같은 밝은 분위기의 가사들과 반대로 하나같이 어두운 느낌을 준다.
