lyrics

Scariest thing I'd ever seen, was a
Psycho-killer shark on TV, as I
Crept off to bed that night
Jaws was coming after me.

Heyhey. Oh. Thanks to TV -
Bathtime is ruined for me.

Hanging off over the bow, I was
Expecting to see
Some kind of wonderous fish, instead an
Ugly Mako was eyeing me.

Heyhey. Oh. We're gonna need
A bigger boat.

But I
Resolve
To stay
Afloat

And I
Resolve
That these fears
Won't wreck my fun.

Hey-hey. Oh. We're gonna need
A bigger boat.

The ocean's trying to kill me
With every passing wave of thought, but it's the
fins I never see, that I
waste my time looking for,

But I
Resolve
To stay
Afloat

And I
Resolve
That these fears
Won't take my soul.

John: Guitars
D-Man: Lyrics, bass, vocals
G-Hard: Keys
