Little Fish

Little Fish is a band that gets closer to the the fans, the root of the story and of the song, as comfortable playing house parties as they are the Royal Albert Hall.

    You, Me & The TV (lyrics)

    I love watching the ‘people-traffic’ outside my window. There’s a woman I see every night, gin bottle in hand. I wonder where she goes and who she is. She is always alone and I wonder why that is. The song is kind of about her and me watching her and other people’s lives. A friend gives you pictures.

    You, Me & the TV

    She’s a gin-soaked heroine
    In worn out shoes
    In the furthest corner of her dream
    There’s a coded truth
    She’s the dirt with desires
    Oh! That just aren’t mine
    Where is your love for me?
    Can you cure my mind?

    People move in the hope of a better life
    People kiss yourself good morning and good night
    You can’t cancel me
    Even if I leave London
    And turn on the TV

    As the libertine betrays
    The romantic lover
    And beauty becomes
    Lighter than the lightness of feathers
    Without warning
    Sing as you march!
    Where is your love for me?
    Can you cure my heart?

    People…

    I’m dying for a smoke
    In exchange for a piece of lived life
    Too tired to hate
    Relieve my sorrow with knife!
    As we kiss and hiss and spit at one another
    Where is your love for me?
    Can you cure desire?

    People..

    People…

    Oh no! You can’t cancel me
    Even if I leave London
    And turn off the TV
