Big Fish

What was the point again

With stayin' in touch

With childhood friends? They're only

people

Who once knew you

When you weren't yourself

I recognize your voice

But not the words that come out

I will need to get way more drunk

To get me through this night

Nowadays noone has the time to just

hang loose

Nowadays there is noone

I can relate to

It got me thinking about my old

grandpa

Who used to look at me and say

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

Is this really all that we can talk

about nowadays

Gossip, house loans, renovations

How much you're getin' paid

Well, you can chase that next raise to

the bottom of the lake

But you can't bring it with you

Where you're going my friend

Put me in a boat

With my son and a fishing rod

Put me in a mood

Where I feel like a ten year old

I just wanna take it easy

Just enjoying the ride

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

(Yeah, I'm talkin' to you now, man

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

(Now if you have the time to hear me out?)

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

(Just a little bit of what he said)

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

-Well hello, old friend!

-Now how the hell are you?

-Me, I'm just another strange voice in

your head.

-So, watcha want this time?

-I just came to tell you the big secret

of life...

-Aha?

-Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

-Oh yeah?

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come

-Ok...

Shut up, sit down in the boat

And the big fish will come
