Emiliana Torrini - Tuna Fish lyrics

I am lying in my bed Watching spider eat the fly I say: "How is that is breakfast TV for you" A little later I'm sitting by the window looking out The red army is really blowing up the street I'm too stale to eat breakfast So I smell my fingertips A cup of coffee won't do for me How days creep by in the greying sky How days creep by and they never even try How days creep by in the greying sky How days creep by Guess it's time for a walk Just to read some license plates What is autumn doing creeping up to me Going on the tube to scream when the train arrives Rubbing cress on my skin, God it smells so nice All the same I'd think I'll go on rolling up the hill

If I'm lucky you won't see me How days creep by in the greying sky How days creep by come and ask me why How days creep by in the greying sky How days creep by Did you know that tuna fish Float up to the surface Belly to the moonlight just to cool down their heart down 'Cause it helps them just to think about the hurtful things I guess it's just one wait to get them some sedation How days creep by - In the greying sky How days creep by - And they definitely die How days creep by - In the greying sky How days creep by How days creep by - And they definitely die How days creep by come and ask me why How days creep by How days creep by How days creep by
