lyrics
You’re always smiling like there’s nothing wrong here
You’re always moving like you don’t belong here
But here’s some news for you
I won’t honor blank tattoos
You’re always losing track of time you spent here
You touch my chest and tell me “There’s room to rent here”
But here’s some news for you
Eye lash wishes don’t come true
No one could leave their untied shoes
I got splashed
By a puddle on the side of the road
If it was up to me I would certainly hold on to all of this coal
I got splashed
And it’s taking its toll
An epiphany occurred to me
What if I don’t like the destiny I’ve been shown?
You’re losing touch but you still got your fingers
You play my games but I should be the ringer
You spit me out and left me for dead
I’m getting sick of my life when it’s stuck in my head
I got splashed
By a puddle on the side of the road
If it was up to me I would certainly hold on to all of this coal
I got splashed
And it’s taking its toll
An epiphany occurred to me
What if I don’t like the destiny I’ve been shown?
I got splashed
By a puddle on the side of the road
If it was up to me I would certainly hold on to all of this coal
I got splashed
And it’s taking its toll
An epiphany occurred to me
What if I don’t like what I’ve been shown?
You’re always moving like you don’t belong here
But here’s some news for you
I won’t honor blank tattoos
You’re always losing track of time you spent here
You touch my chest and tell me “There’s room to rent here”
But here’s some news for you
Eye lash wishes don’t come true
No one could leave their untied shoes
I got splashed
By a puddle on the side of the road
If it was up to me I would certainly hold on to all of this coal
I got splashed
And it’s taking its toll
An epiphany occurred to me
What if I don’t like the destiny I’ve been shown?
You’re losing touch but you still got your fingers
You play my games but I should be the ringer
You spit me out and left me for dead
I’m getting sick of my life when it’s stuck in my head
I got splashed
By a puddle on the side of the road
If it was up to me I would certainly hold on to all of this coal
I got splashed
And it’s taking its toll
An epiphany occurred to me
What if I don’t like the destiny I’ve been shown?
I got splashed
By a puddle on the side of the road
If it was up to me I would certainly hold on to all of this coal
I got splashed
And it’s taking its toll
An epiphany occurred to me
What if I don’t like what I’ve been shown?

about
Teenage Octopus Ann Arbor, Michigan
After lead guitarist Bobby Lewis formed Teenage Octopus in 2009, the band wasted no time hitting the Ann Arbor music scene with their fresh, unique sound. Influenced by alternative-rock bands such as Radiohead, Wilco and Spoon as well as jam-band pioneers Phish, the four-piece from University of Michigan's goal is to intertwine smart melodies and explorative jams. ... more
