"Shallow End" lyrics

I keep treadin' water
Bailin' in the storm
And as if it's magic
You float by tragically bored
So bored
I got nothing for my hands to grab ahold
Behind cool sunglasses are the eyes placid and dull?
Oh no

Hey Mister Big Star
Congratulations star child
You'll have a big smile, while you drown in the shallow end
Oooo Oooo Oooo
While you drown in the shallow end

From what I see your life looks so great
Are these things that you live for?
Well tell me how do you operate, out of the shallow end
I wonder how do you get it all, onto the raft when the storm comes
When all you got's a flamingo floatie, out in the deep blue sea

Hey Mister

Hey Mister Big Star
Congratulations star child
You'll have a big smile, while you drown in the shallow end
Oooo Oooo Oooo
While you drown in the shallow end
