Fresh off the boat from Wales, Catfish and the Bottlemen have made quite a splash in the U.S. indie scene. Led by singer Van McCann the boys have already played big name festivals like T in the Park, Reading & Leeds and the Governor’s Ball in New York. With their punky riffs and McCann’s strong vocals the Bottlemen were destined to be the next big fish in an equally big pond. Their second single from their debut album The Balcony is “Cocoon.” The song centers on a drunken adventure with a girl McCann fancies. It’s an expletive-filled love song for the modern age. Check out the explosive lyrics to “Cocoon” below: <br /> <br />I fell straight <br />Into your arms <br />Like a drunk <br />Who’s been on it <br />All morning. <br />And the sun’s up <br />And my head’s fucked. <br />And immediately I grab you <br />You go all red <br />Like the first time <br />I love it when you do that <br />God I love it when you do that. <br /> <br />I remember when we <br />Swapped names and I thought maybe <br />You’d stay and try to out-drink me <br />Your friends, all hated it! <br /> <br />Fuck it if they talk <br />Fuck it if they try and get to us <br />Cause I’d rather go blind <br />Than let you down. <br /> <br />I cocoon <br />Round your shoulders <br />When you’re half cut <br />And you’re frozen <br />And you’ve got that visible breathing <br />You’re depending on me again. <br /> <br />I remember when we <br />Swapped names and I thought maybe <br />You’d stay and try to out-drink me <br />Your friends, all hated it! <br /> <br />Fuck it if they talk <br />Fuck it if they try and get to us <br />Cause I’d rather go blind <br />Than let you down. <br /> <br />Fuck it if they talk <br />Fuck it if they try and get to us <br />Cause I’d rather go blind <br />Than let you down. <br /> <br />And if you wanna shut down and pose as positive and <br />Hide smoking from relatives and <br />Rest on me, <br />Honey, that’s all right! <br />And if you wanna act more drunk than usual <br />To help you get away with more than <br />Rest on me, <br />Honey, that’s alright! <br />Honey, that’s alright! <br /> <br />I cocoon <br />Round your shoulders <br />When you’re half cut <br />When you’re half cut <br /> <br />Fuck it if they talk <br />Fuck it if they try and get to us <br />Cause I’d rather go blind <br />Than let you down. <br />I remember when we <br />Swapped names and I thought maybe <br />You’d stay and try to out-drink me <br />Your friends, all hated it! <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JbtvMusic <br />Twitter: https://twitter.com/jbtv <br />Instagram: https://instagram.com/jbtvstudio/ <br />Tumblr: http://jbtvonline.tumblr.com/
