Tarantula Lyrics by July For Kings

Middletown

2015

[Verse 1]
Tarantula on a Texas playground
In your hand was gentle
Panama, the bright white sand, and the ocean
We get so sentimental
[Chorus]
And it grows in waves like sea foam
Life was crammed in our heads
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Golden frogs we caught in the jungle's edges
Just before extinction
We moved away and we lived on air-force bases
Saw the runway blinking
[Chorus]
It grows in waves like sea foam
Life was crammed in our heads
Ooh, the stories we tell
Ooh, like God cast a spell
Ooh, on your magic life
Ooh, and this is what it feels like
[Bridge]
From 405 to 411, you see the sky
You see the sun, it's you and I
Tarantula on a Texas playground
What is transcendental?
And this is what it feels like
[Chorus]
Ooh, the stories we tell
Ooh, like God cast a spell
Ooh, on your magic life
Ooh, and this is what it feels like
[Chorus]
Ooh, the stories you tell
Ooh, like God cast a spell
Ooh, on your magic life
And this is what it feels like
