Lyrics

Sardines

[Verse 1]

The sea holds you softly and then turns you around

Put my trust in somethin' salty but it has let me down

But it has let me down

But it has let me down

[Chorus]

Sardines

Packed in so tightly

I peek

They’re looking right at me

[Verse 2]

The creatures in the distance grow indifferent to my cries

'Cause the ocean in its glory, it has swallowed me alive

It has swallowed me alive

It has swallowed me alive

[Chorus]

Cut feet

The mouth of some fishies

Suck the

Blood from my body

[Outro]

Dark green seaweed

Wraps me like a mummy

Dark green seaweed

Wraps me like a mummy
