DAVE MATTHEWS BAND - Big Eyed Fish lyrics

rate me

Look at this big - eyed fish swimming in the sea oh

How it dreams to be a bird swoop and diving through the breeze

So one day caught a big old wave up on to the beach

Now he's dead you see beneath the sea is where a fish should be

But oh God

Under the weight of life

Things seem brighter on the other side

You see this crazy man decided not to breathe

He turned red and blue - purple, colorful indeed

No matter how his friends begged and pleaded the man would not concede

And now he's dead you see the silly man should know you got to breathe

But oh God

Under the weight of life

Things seem brighter on the other side

Oh God

Under the weight of life

Things seem so much better on the other side

No way, no way

No way out of here

You see the little monkey sitting up in his monkey tree

One day decided to climb down and run off to the city

But look at him now lost tired living in the street

As good as dead you see what a monkey does - stay up your tree

But oh God

Under the weight of life

Things seem brighter on the other side

Oh God

Under the weight of life

Things seem so much better on the other side

No way, no way, no way

No way out of here

Rain in my dreams

Fall away
