They'll Soon Discover Lyrics - Singles - The Shins

When you were young and wise 

scratching your letters in the sand. 

When your imagination led you all around by the hand. 

La la la la 

Did you ever wonder what dizzy adventures there might be 

Unfolding in the currents under the waves at the bottom of the sea? 

Well he's odd but he's got a lot of vision, 

his bucked teeth and cock-eyed smile 

Can't stop this invertebrate on a mission, 

He's in charge!

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

A sinister design, a wild goose chase for a crown 

with your eyes aligned, before they tear apart your town 

if you want to win or save all of your kin in the ocean 

Stay your ground, don't be discouraged, 

don't let 'em turn our brains into porridge 

You're odd but you've got a lot of vision, 

your buck teeth and stalwart heart 

Can't stop this invertebrate on a mission, 

He's in charge!

But its a long, hard fight 

the corner turns and its always another mile 

People think day and night 

They think they got your number, 

but they'll soon discover!
