Do you feel car sick?
I feel car sick
You're in love again
Stop talking
It's so boring
I can't take it anymore and I'm gonna tear you apart
Ow!
You cripple my -
(La la la la la la la....)
Do you feel car sick?
I feel car sick
It comes down to the rub again
Stop talking
It's so boring
I can't stand to look at you
I'm free of imitation
I'm free to make mistakes in love again
I'm so sorry Mum
I didn't know that this is the way to be polite now
The frustration, precipitation
Should I drink that drink because you don't?
UGHH!
Do you feel car sick?
I feel carsick
It comes down to the rub again
Stop talking
You're so boring
I can't stand to look at you
I'm free of imitation
I'm free to make mistakes in love again
I am perpetually uncool
I'm free of expectation
I'm free to make mistakes and love again
I can't stand to look at you
I'm free of imitation
I'm free to make mistakes in love again
I am perpetually uncool
I'm free of expectation
I'm free to make mistakes and love again
I can't stand to look at you
I'm free of innovation
I'm free to make mistakes...
...In love again.

So long my friend
You've got to be somewhere else instead and I...
I get that I really do
But there's far more things I've to say to you
And it's just so unfair and undignified
That this is the way that you'll leave my side
My friend Lily was in disguise when she said
"Don't worry, It's just my time and I will be together with you one day"
But I got one step closer to death that day
I'm frightened my dear
"Chin up son. Be anywhere but here"
I get that I really do
But there's far more things I've to say to you
And it's all so unfair and so ill timed
But this is the way that you'll leave my side
My friend Lily was in disguise when she said
"Don't worry, It's just my time and I will be together with you one day"
But I got one step closer to death that day
My friend Lily was in disguise when she said
"Don't worry, It's just my time and I will be together with you one day"
But I got one step closer to death...
Am I doing the right thing?
My friend Lily was in disguise when she said
"Don't worry, It's just my time and I will be together with you one day"
But I got one step closer to death that day
My friend Lily was in disguise when she said
"Don't worry, It's just my time and I will be together with you one day"
But I got one step closer to death that day
My friend lily was indisposed when she said
"Don't worry I'm comatosed and I will be together with you one day"
But I got one step closer to death...

Well I'm feeding off your brain for a taste of the mud I felt once before
For a girl as smart as you can be never wrong
Copy your exam
All computer RAM couldn't keep up with you
'Cause you're intelligent and irreverent and I like your boots
But Jane, there's always another one
Who looks just like you
But I promise you babe
You are the only one
With a mind wrapped round my heart
Curled up in your bed looking at the bulbs
Wonder how long they've been dead?
"Well it's distance, not time that measures light"
God I'm so glad i got you around to tell me things like that
'Cause I'm not bright
I'm hopeless
Do you love that?
But Jane, there's always another one
Who looks just like you
But I promise you babe
You are the only one
With a mind wrapped round my...
"Well hey! Can I buy you a drink?"
Huh?!
I'm sorry, who'd this now babe?
You met on holiday?!
How could you?!
Oh god what's there left to say?
'Cause you're right and I'm always wrong and I should've just gone home..
You're right and I'm always wrong
Well you owe me
I'm done
I'm wrong
But I'm done
I know I'm going
I'm going
I'm going so soon
Just let me sing one more
'Bout me and you

It's quiet
Now we're all here
I look down and stammer on
As I make this clear
"I fall in love with you like you fall asleep, slowly [at first], then all at once" (Green, J. 2012 p125)
'Cause we can talk online for hours at a time
Downloading each other's songs
But how could I know?
Breath catch in my throat
There's someone after me
But how could you know?
Regurgitating time over
As your life leaves
But I don't know
How to feel now I'm alone
You stare down
At your shoes instead
I'd like to talk
But there's no knowing where it could head
It's like you're half of mine
With an infinite divide
Between yourself and the other guys
I'm sick inside
Cause you're always on my mind
Filled with imaginary sex
But how could I know?
Breath catch in my throat
There's someone after me
But how could you know?
Regurgitating time over
As your life leaves
But I don't know
How to feel now I'm alone
Because it never is
It never was anyone at all
How to feel now I'm alone

If you like Fish Tank, you may also like:

Certainly a controversial direction for the band, but this album ultimately rests as my favorite from TTNG. The technical mastery of their previous albums is still present here along with some very thought provoking and philosophical lyrics. I may not always agree with the lyrical messaging, but this is an album which rewards careful listening.
