Tidal Wave Lyrics by The Sugarcubes

Here Today, Tomorrow Next Week!

1989

Einar
The diesel is so nice
I just need something!

Björk
The barometer is falling down, I feel so sultry
Something is simmering and boiling inside me
If I ignore it and squeeze out laughter
I charge up with a typhoon, hurricanes and storms

Einar
I just need the diesel, I just find the smell
I just sniff it and I can feel the harbour just close by
I just try to sniff the diesel but I can't, I just can't get enough

Björk
There's danger, danger!

A tide with an undertow, the sea is swelling
Impatience makes me foam
A wave inside me forces out big words
They splash and sprinkle
Angry torrent breaking loose, a flush of rushing joy

Einar
The diesel, just makes me feel
It just fills my veins
I don't know why
It just does

The diesel is so....

Björk
It shouldn't gush out

Einar
It just fills me up

Björk
Don't want it to be fussy

Einar
I can't have a cigarette

Björk
It shouldn't gush out

Einar
It just fills me up
If i have a cigarette, it would make me go boom!

Björk
And I can't help it, I'm exploding again
I'm calling weather station Nomad
And satellite Nimbus
It's a blizzard inside me, a bomb ticking!
This is the tidal wave

Einar
The diesel!

Björk
Here comes the tidal wave, ho-ho!

Einar
The diesel!

Björk
This is the tidal wave

Einar
The diesel!

Björk
Here comes the tidal wave

Einar
The diesel is just so nice
