Tuna Fish - Emiliana Torrini

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
