Fish Bite

(альбом: Beneath The Black Palms - 2020)

You sweat in the classroom by day
And you work for him by night
And how does he pay you?
Disappointment and shame within his eyes
So it's time

Come out, come out, come out, come out Carlo!
Come out, come out, the water is clear
Come out, come out, come out
Don't you pay no mind to mama
We're swimming here

Here, where at night the fish may bite
But they never hurt me
No, not in my sea

You baked like abuela
You mended the very dress you hate
And how does she thank you?
With questions of vows you cannot make
So escape

Come out, come out, come out, come out Carlo!
Come out, come out, the water is clear
Come out, come out, come out
Don't you pay no mind to mama
We're swimming here

Here, where at night the fish may bite
But they never hurt me
No, not in my sea
Come out at night, our fish will bite
But they never hurt me
No, not in my sea

"Oh no, young lady, not in my house
Don't swim, 'cause those fishes' bites are deadly."
Oh my young man, swim so freely
Fish bites are friendly here in our sea
Come swim in our sea

Come out, come out, come out, come out Carlo!
Come out, come out, the water is fine
Come out, come out, come out
Don't you pay no mind to papi
Pay him no mind
Come out, come out, come out, come out Carlo!
Come out, come out, the water is clear
Come out, come out, come out
Don't you pay no mind to mama
We're swimming here

Here, where at night the fish may bite
But they never hurt me
No, not in my sea
Come out at night, our fish will bite
But they never hurt me
No, not in my sea
