The Fiery Furnaces - Asthma Attack Lyrics

I would I had a asthma attack
If I seen the shark bite back
I would I had a asthma attack
If I seen the shark bite back

Yeah it's paradise island I know
Yeah yeah yeah I been there before
Once, twice, three times maybe
Once with my moms and twice with my baby

I shook my silver bracelet at a thousand sharks
They like the shimmer-glimmer but said
No never, no never swim in the dark
Once twice, three times maybe
Once with my moms and twice with my baby

I would I had a asthma attack
If I seen the shark bite back
I would I had a asthma attack
If I seen the shark bite back

Yeah yeah it's just a figure of speech
A python ate my babe when he hit the beach
Once twice, three times maybe
Once with my moms and twice with my baby

I shook my silver bracelet at a thousand sharks
They like the shimmer-glimmer but said
No never, no never swim in the dark
Once twice, three times maybe
Once with my moms and twice with my baby
