Jaws on Repeat (Life on Hold) - ORBS

If you wake up and realize you’ve done nothing with your life

Could you get a second chance to get things right?

I’d like to think so, I’d like to think so

Instead you stay up all night watching Jaws and getting high

Could you then grow up to be a shark?

Oh no no, oh no no, I don’t think so

And if you’re sickened by the sea and all it has inside

Could that shark then turn into me?

Golly I suppose, golly I suppose

And do you feel quite deep?

Your drug-induced philosophies

Mere puddles diluted into seas

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, I do think so

You turn fishes to beasts

Just ambitions and dreams

Your facade is fading

From far off you look very tall

Close up you don’t scare me…

If you stay up all night drinking someone else’s wine

Contemplating space and time

Does that make you deep?

Or maybe you’re just a thief?

If you cite great thinkers of old

Can one day people quote your words?

Oh no no, oh no no, I don’t think so

You’re stumbling, misquoting, there’s a slur in your speech

Oh no, oh no

Drunk ambitions and dreams

From far off you look very tall

Close up you don’t scare me at all

From far off you look very tall

Close up you’re nothing at all

There’s a vast and growing wallet in the sky

Dispersing knowledge via cannabis and wine

So grab your boots and grab a pail

Raise a flag and set your sails!

Puddle jump and talk of whales!

Reach on out and grab it, now you got it!

…Oh, it’s gone…

At least you had it for a moment

It tasted sweet, I’m sure

Reach on out and grab it, now you got it!

…Oh, it’s gone…

At least you had it for a moment

It tasted sweet, I’m sure it did

From far off you look very tall

Close up you don’t scare me at all

From far off you look very tall

Close up you are nothing… nothing
