Pez Dorado

Lyrics for Pez Dorado

Echoes from a nursery rhyme Hide in plain sight all this time Here you come splashing in your summer clothes You and your pale pink toes Just there where the shadow falls There we follow one and all Can't resist the creeping dark Ready to make our mark Little red fish beneath the surface of the water Testing the break point in case we get lucky Ancient blood is patient blood We were here before the flood Waiting for our time to shine Sparks in a silver mine Shorebirds deal death all day long We are weak but they are strong Lose some friends along the way Then in you come one day Little red fish beneath the surface of the water Scales in the sun, stars in a shot glass Testing the break point in case we get lucky Take your time, we've got all day Days beyond that, come what may If you get home tell all your friends The spawning tide never ends Say what you felt when you found us here Here where the waters run crystal clear One summer day in your summer clothes The day you saw several ghosts Little red fish beneath the surface of the water Hungry for years, senses sharpened by the hunger Testing the break point in case we get lucky Testing the break point in case we get lucky
