If you could wake up and realize you've done nothing with your life
Could you get a second chance to get things right?
"Oh I'd like to think so, oh 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"
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"
Do you feel quite deep, you and your drug induced philosophies?
They're mere puddles deluded into seas
"Oh, I do think so"
You turn fishes to beasts, just ambitions and dreams
Your facade is fading
From far off your look very tall
Close up you don't scare me
If you stay up all night drinking some one else's wine
Contemplating s***e and time
Does that make you deep, or maybe just a thief?
If you cite great thinkers of old
Could 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
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
But 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
So 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, 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
But close up you are nothing... at all
Could you get a second chance to get things right?
