Shark Attack Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah, I left my body in a sea of people
And that's just how I'll leave it
Yeah, I met somebody in a sea of people
And that's just what I believe in
[Verse 1]
Yeah, we laughin' like a Wednesday night
We ran across the interstate
And drank a bottle of vinegar
And then we stayed up really late
[Pre-Chorus]
Break it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
Bring it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
[Chorus]
And I am what I am, a natural disaster
Pick me up at three, send me off to sea
And maybe I'll come back for ya'
See, I lost my clothes, I'm skinny-dippin'
And I can't understand what I'm after
[Verse 2]
So as we lay upon this ground, I swear you look like Lucifer
But green is blue, and so are you
And now we gone to Jupiter (Right now)
To Jupiter (Ah, shit)
Yeah, I left my body in a sea of people
And that's just how I'll leave it
Yeah, I met somebody in a sea of people
And that's just what I believe in
[Verse 1]
Yeah, we laughin' like a Wednesday night
We ran across the interstate
And drank a bottle of vinegar
And then we stayed up really late
[Pre-Chorus]
Break it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
Bring it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
[Chorus]
And I am what I am, a natural disaster
Pick me up at three, send me off to sea
And maybe I'll come back for ya'
See, I lost my clothes, I'm skinny-dippin'
And I can't understand what I'm after
[Verse 2]
So as we lay upon this ground, I swear you look like Lucifer
But green is blue, and so are you
And now we gone to Jupiter (Right now)
To Jupiter (Ah, shit)
[Pre-Chorus]
Break it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
Bring it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
[Chorus]
And I am what I am, a natural disaster
Pick me up at three, send me off to sea
And maybe I'll come back for ya'
See, I lost my clothes, I'm skinny-dippin'
And I can't understand what I'm after
[Bridge]
Swim, swim, swim in a swimming pool
The sky is blue, the trees are too
Swim, swim, swim from green to red
Go to bed, ya' sleepyhead
Swim, swim, swim in your swimming pool
Like swimmers do, I'll call on you
[Bridge]
Yeah, I met somebody in a sea of people
And that's just how I'll leave it
Yeah, I left my body in a sea of people
And that's just what I believe in
That's just what I believe in
That's just what I believe in
Break it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
Bring it down, break it down in the hot, hot desert
This is where I wanna be
[Chorus]
And I am what I am, a natural disaster
Pick me up at three, send me off to sea
And maybe I'll come back for ya'
See, I lost my clothes, I'm skinny-dippin'
And I can't understand what I'm after
[Bridge]
Swim, swim, swim in a swimming pool
The sky is blue, the trees are too
Swim, swim, swim from green to red
Go to bed, ya' sleepyhead
Swim, swim, swim in your swimming pool
Like swimmers do, I'll call on you
[Bridge]
Yeah, I met somebody in a sea of people
And that's just how I'll leave it
Yeah, I left my body in a sea of people
And that's just what I believe in
That's just what I believe in
That's just what I believe in
[Chorus]
And I am what I am, a natural disaster
Pick me up at three, send me off to sea
And maybe I'll come back for ya'
See, I lost my clothes, I'm skinny-dippin'
And I can't understand what I'm after
[Outro]
Swim, swim, swim...
And I am what I am, a natural disaster
Pick me up at three, send me off to sea
And maybe I'll come back for ya'
See, I lost my clothes, I'm skinny-dippin'
And I can't understand what I'm after
[Outro]
Swim, swim, swim...

Genius Annotation
Hanna Hooper, from a 2013 interview with Pigeons and Planes:
“Christian and I, we found in the middle of our three-year tour—there were these four days off that we were just eyeing—we rented a house in the desert, this hippy house where we took psychedelics and wrote that song [Laughs]. That song is literally exactly what we experienced. We saw the devil and saw this mirage that was really cool of these two kids kind of running away from the city. It was pretty.”
