All my friends are freaking me out
I watched the sun come up and it’s making me shout
I’m a loner
I’m alone
And that’s the way I like it

I like it
This is all I know
Now you wait outside
Just to see my show
And the truth is the heroes
Are running on empty

Caught in a transit
(L.S.D.)
I got my head in a basket
(Lucky me)
The fuel’s running out
And you’re running on empty

All my friends are cleaning their cars
I’ve been up all night with the freaks in the bars
I’m a loner
I’m alone
And that’s the way I like it

I like it

Hippie sunshine
(L.S.D.)
I said all in good time
(Lucky me)
The winters
The winters are freezing

Caught in a transit
(D.M.T.)
I got my brains in a basket
(Vitamin C)
The fuel’s running out
And you’re running on empty

I can feel it in the air
You’re a stone cold killer
And these rocks sliding down on me
I had never seen before
What I saw in the mirror
Close your eyes if you don’t wanna see

I can feel it in the air
You’re a stone cold killer
And these rocks sliding down on me
I had never seen before
What I saw in the mirror
Close your eyes if you don’t wanna see

All my friends are freaking me out
I watch the city wake up and it’s drowning me out
I’m a loner
I’m alone
And that’s the way I like it

Hippie sunshine
(U.S.D.)
I said all in good time
(Lucky me)
The crypto
The crypto keeps earning

Caught in a transit
(D.M.T.)
I got my brains in a basket
(Vitamin C)
The fuel’s running out
And you’re running on empty

Hippie sunshine
Hippie sunshine
Hippie sunshine
Hippie sunshine

(Hippie sunshine)
I can feel it in the air
You’re a stone cold killer
(Hippie sunshine)
And these rocks sliding down on me
(Hippie sunshine)
I had never seen before
What I saw in the mirror
(Hippie sunshine)
Close you eyes if you don’t wanna see

Album: ACT III

Hippie Sunshine was the first single to be released from Kasabian’s ninth studio album, ACT III.
The track was released on 22 September 2025, to coincide with the announcement of the album, and the band’s July 2026 Finsbury Park headline show.

“The Lou Reed/Elton John section, I’m very proud of that […] The DNA of the band is about that – I’ve always loved a little surprise. From a proper glam stomp to a gear change like that is really exciting. On the third or fourth listen you can’t wait for that bit to happen.” – Sergio Pizzorno, 2025
