"Big Eyed Fish" lyrics
"Big Eyed Fish"
Look at this big-eyed fish swimming in the sea
Oh, how it dreams to be a bird, swooping, 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
But 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 and tired, living in the street
As good as dead you see
Do 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

Better Than Ezra - "Extra Ordinary" I got a little bit of hope
Like a soap on a rope

Smart as Bobby Fischer!
Still I...
Third Eye Blind - "Crystal Baller" I close my eyes and I see a freak
I think it's me and I'm afraid to speak
I keep on going from weak to weakness
Way out in a line
I dream of lives we could have had before
The heat is broke down,...
Blind Melon - "Change" I don't feel the sun's coming out today
It's staying in. It's gonna find another way. Yeah
As I sit here in this misery
I don't think I'll ever—no, Lord—
See the sun from here
And, oh, as I fade...
Matchbox Twenty - "Bent" And if I fall along the way
Pick me up and dust me off
And if I get too tired to make it
Be my breath so I can walk
And if I need some other love, then
Give me more than I can stand
And when my smile...
Hootie & The Blowfish - "I Go Blind" Every time I look at you, I go blind.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
In the mornin' I get up, and I try to
Feel alive, but I can't.
Every time I look at you, I go blind.
I don't know what...
