Many Fish to Fry - Jake Morley

Every life is a new way to die

Futures rain down from the sky

I don’t know what I’ll do or where I belong

Anything’s coming my way

Anything’s possible today

I move to peru and I build a canoe

From a tree trunk, scrap metal and glue

Overcharge the tourists they haven’t got a clue

Re-grow the afro and don’t use shampoo

Pablo the fisherman lends me his line

I’m catching seabass in no time

What a life, but no wife,

And I fucking hate mosquitos

Malaria was tough but the doc did enough

To save my life

Til I drown in a freak whirlpool at aged 65

Every life is a new way to die

Futures rain down from the sky

I don’t know what I’ll do or where I belong

Anything’s coming my way

Anything’s possible today

Iceland’s quite cold, but a part of my soul

Won’t rest til I call it home

Through powderglass snowfields I go for a stroll

Meet a girl taxidermist in a geothermal pool

We drive round in circles cos there’s nothing else to do

I father a child or two

Northern lights, it’s alright but I miss my big brothers

She left with the kids, I move to Madrid,

Learn to fly a plane

Til a biotech virus eats through my brain

Every life is a new way to die

Futures rain down from the sky

I don’t know what I’ll do or where I belong

Anything’s coming my way

Anything’s possible today

The album’s a flop, so I open a shop called

Jake Morley’s Famously Lossmaking Sandwich Emporium Shop

For the price food so nice you’ll weep in your bread

But the shop’s repossessed and I get so much rest

I think I must be dead.

But wait a minute I can see my great-grandkids crowded round my bed

Every life is a new way to die

Futures rain down from the sky

I don’t know what I’ll do or where I belong

Anything’s coming my way

Anything’s possible today

Every life is a new way to die

Futures rain down from the sky

I don’t know what I’ll do or where I belong

Anything’s coming my way

Everything’s coming my way

Everything’s possible today
