7/17/2001 alternate lyrics
look at this big eyed fish
swimming in the sea
oh how he wants to be a bird
swooping and diving through the breeze
one day caught a big old wave
up onto the beach
now hes dead you see
every fish should know you got to breathe
but oh god under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
look at this man one day decided not to breath
no matter how his friends begged and pleaded
he would not concede
turned red then blue then purple
ah so colorful indeed
now the man is dead you see
because everyone should know you got to breathe
but oh god under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
oh god but under the weight of life
things seem so much brighter on the other side
no way
no way
no way out of yeah
you see this monkey sitting up in his monkey tree
until the day decided he want climb down
and run off to the big city
but look at the monkey now
drunk and tired living in the streets
just as good as dead
you see every monkey should know
stay up in your fucking tree
but oh god under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
oh god but under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
no way
no way

Big Eyed Fish
main lyrics
Look at this big-eyed fish swimming in the sea
oh, how he dreams to be a bird, swooping, diving through the breeze
so one day, caught a big old wave up onto the beach
now he's dead, you see—beneath the sea is where a fish should be
But oh, god, under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
You see this crazy man decided not to breathe
he turned red, then blue, purple, colorful indeed
no matter how his friends begged and pleaded, the man would not concede
and now he's dead, you see—the silly man should know you got to breathe
But oh, god, under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
oh, god, but under the weight of life
things seem so much better on the other side
No way, no way, no way out of here
See the little monkey sitting up in his monkey tree
one day decided to climb down, run off to the city
but look at him now, lost and tired, living in the street
as good as dead you see
do what a monkey does, stay up your tree
But oh God, under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
oh God, under the weight of life
things seem so much better on the other side
No way, no way, no way, no way out of here
Rain on my love, rain in my dreams, my love, dream, oh, rain out
oh god, under the weight of life
things seem brighter on the other side
rain in my dreams, rain in my dreams, rain in my--
brighter on the other side
oh god, under the weight of life
rain in my dreams, rain in my
oh way, oh way, oh way, oh way
