My life is a fishtank full of tears An axolotl swims around inside
Calculator screens and bottles add to the mystique of the axolotl's smile
(And still I smile despite it all) The axolotl's smile (Cause something swims inside of me)
Show me show me show me how to get to Bondi Junction he said And it seemed like a strange request
because the map explains itself but I think he needed a friend, so
It was Central at night You know how it is I was on my way home I was stuck with this kid
And I sorta liked him He had a skateboard He looked about 12 He was a twitchy lad
My life is a fishtank full of tears An axolotl swims around inside
Calculator screens and bottles add to the mystique of the axolotl's smile
(And still I smile despite it all) The axolotl's smile (Cause something swims inside of me)
So we got to Bondi Junction and he ran into Woolies and grabbed a bunch of water and gum for some reason
and ran away and I kept the same pace cause the instant bond had been forged
We got pizza at Rizzy's with a bunch of other lads He was flirting with some girls by giving them gum
He said I'm looking for the skate park I wanna skate all night Till the cops get called and I get taken away from my mom
(And still I swim despite it all Cause something smiles inside of me) Taken away from my mom
(And still I swim despite it all Cause something smiles inside of me)
My life is a fishtank full of tears An axolotl swims around inside
Calculator screens and bottles add to the mystique of the axolotl's smile
(And still I smile despite it all) The axolotl's smile (Cause something swims inside of me)
