Season of the Shark - Yo La Tengo

Do you need someone to hide behind?

Well, I don’t mind, well, I don’t mind

Do you need to be alone to unwind?

Well, that’s alright, that’s alright

Sure I know it’s hard

You know that it’s that way for everyone, for everyone

Some things go wrong

Sink so low you even blame the sun

You blame it as the cause

Of the shadows on the wall

They’re not as bad as they appear

Could it be that it’s the season of the shark?

Do you need someone to help you through?

Well, I don’t know, I don’t know

Someone to take questions for you

I don’t know, I don’t know

I want to be the one

To make you feel okay right now, someway, somehow

When I fall short

I sink so low I even blame the clouds

For blocking out the sun

And the shadows on the wall

That’s why you feel alone

Could it be that it’s the season of the shark?

Please don’t be afraid

No matter how much out there scares you so, scares you so

Just look around

If it’s not me then someone else you know

You’re not alone at all

Ignore the shadows on the wall

They don’t mean a thing

Could it be that it’s the season, I believe that it’s the season of the shark

Could it be that it’s the season of the shark?
