Jayhawks - Poor Little Fish lyrics

rate me

Chorus:

Poor little fishswimming in the water

Hide behind the coattails of your father

I've been alone so long I thought I'd never last

Stuck up on a shelf like an old dusty hatyeah

But then you come along

You put me on that throne

Up into the skyyeah

Thought I saw nick cave down at the laundromat

You put your hand in my hand ant that was thatyeah

Your perfume on my sleeve

You lit my life like a christmas tree

Up into the skyyeah

(chorus)

Y'know a coldcold heart sleeps awful well

While the maids vacuum the hall outside my cheap hotel room

The whole damn shit came down

Exploded to the ground

Pussshup into the skyyeah

(chorus)

Where you are is who you are

When you're sleeping

Where you are is who you are

When you're sleeping

Poor little fish

Poor little fish

Poorpoor little fish

Poorpoor little fish
