Brand New - Jaws Theme Swimming Lyrics






In a car outside, we stalk the idle kind
If you're leaving, just let me know
Tobacco and peppermint, dusting for fingerprints
A film in her eyes from the glow

Some rules are made with all intentions to break
And she defends it with a warped rationale
And I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud
When they decide to try to take on the throne for the crown

[Chorus:]
And we learn as we age
We've learned nothing and my body still aches
And you take cause they give
Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve

When it got cold outside, smoke beneath the playground lights
If you're coming home, just let me know
Sucking on your breath mint, dissected and stuck with pins
A film in her eyes from the glow

Concrete and water, she's looking for her daughter
At midnight in torrential downpour
And everything I said about how messed your head is
Was cut up and left in bits and pieces on the cutting room floor

[Chorus x2]

Take the picture from the wall when you think that nothing matters
Take the picture from the plane and it's a long ways to the floor
Cut your finger on the edge cause it's sharper than they told you
Take a leap from out the window cause it's way too far to go through the door

[Chorus]

Brand New Jaws Theme Swimming Comments
  1. L.... N....

    This, guernica, and good to know are the best

  2. R.... S....

    Saw these guys support Biffy Clyro in London and whereas Biffy have changed with becoming more mainstream, Brand New have always stuck to their guns and remained niche!!!

  3. M.... L....

    God. Ugh. They are soo damn good man! :D

  4. J.... L....

    2019 and still my fucking favorite song

  5. T.... M....

    I first learned about "Jaws Theme Swimming" a few years ago but never listened to it until now.

  6. T.... A....

    2019 still amazing

  7. D.... r....

    This song brings me straight back to high school...hanging out in parking lots, walking to peoples houses because you don't have a car, smoking in playgrounds...being a high schooler is a lot like being homeless, except you kind of make it fun somehow.

  8. T.... S....

    Deja Entendu is such an awesome album. These guys are so underrated, today we need real music like this more than ever.

    T.... S....

    Title fight, turnover, Oso Oso, the garden, step-brother, WinterGatan, BOTAR, Toh Kay, Streetlight Manifesto, Detektivbyran, autolux, clevergirl, Chon, enemies, the drums, animal collective, new character, empire! empire! (I was a lonely estate), floral, giraffes?Giraffes!, numbergirl, hedgehog, carsick cars, field medic, mogwai, animals as leaders, god is an astronaut, pretend, picture of her, Joey gaydos group, Ernest Gonzalez, sad park... etc the list goes on, plenty of great bands still exist.

  9. A.... L....

    You feminist

  10. A.... H....

    Ran into Jesse and his daughter at the local Whole Foods last month. 10/10 would recommend.

    A.... H....

    Hey, how are they? I can still remember the shitstorm from Jesse's revelation

    A.... H....

    @PJ L he seemed fine. Wary of me coming up and recognizing him, but once he realized I wasn't attacking him, we had a long conversation. Him and his family just moved to the area. He said his wife was pretty happy to be living there now. His daughter seemed happy. It sounds like him and his wife are working on things, and should be fine. He's just focused on his family and things getting better, and all of them being happy where they've chosen to live.

    A.... H....

    Did you ask him what the hell is being said on TDAGARIM untitled track 10?

    A.... H....

    I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud when they decided to try to take on the throne for the 👑

  11. s.... b....

  13. T.... C....

    The most Long Island song ever

  14. J.... ....

    This is the track I play every night I'm asked to stay late at work.. When I'm tired and sore, the place has cleared out, and I'm still here slaving away by myself..

  15. K.... G....

    @firsttimecaller longtimelistener i remember when marb smooths came out i was like 14. or camel crush i was like 20.

    In a car outside, we stalk the idle kind.
    If you're leaving, just let me know.
    Tobacco and peppermint, dusting for fingerprints.
    A film in her eyes from the glow.
    Some rules are made with all intentions to break
    And she defends it with a warped rationale.
    And I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud
    When they decide to try to take on the throne for the crown.
    And we learn as we age.
    Wait for nothing
    And my body still aches.
    And you take cause they give.
    Though I love you
    And my body it leaks like a sieve.
    When it got cold outside, smoke beneath the playground lights.
    If you're coming home, just let me know.
    Sucking on your breath mint, dissected and stuck with pins.
    A film in her eyes from the glow.
    Concrete and water, she's looking for her daughter
    At midnight in torrential downpour.
    And everything I said about how messed your head is,
    Were cut up and left in bits and pieces on the ground.
    And we learn as we age.
    We've learned nothing and my body still aches.
    And you take cause they give.
    Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve.
    And we learn as we age.
    We've learned nothing and my body still aches.
    And you take cause they give.
    Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve.
    Take the picture from the wall when you think that nothing matters.
    Take the picture from the frame and it's a long ways to the floor.
    Cut your finger on the edge cause it's sharper than they told you.
    Take a leap from out the window cause it's way too far to go through the door.
    And we learn as we age.
    Wait for nothing and my body still aches.
    And you take cause they give.
    Though I love you and my body it leaks like a sieve.

  21. W.... ....

    I know the sound of this album, man. Every single instrument sounds so clear, amazing.

  22. D.... G....

    Easily the best song on Deja. Aged better than any other track. Maybe their best chorus ever.

  23. A.... E....

    idc if jeese raped that girl their music is amazing and is the only thing i will judge them for

    A.... E....

    A E S T H E T I C He didn't rape that girl, he just got nudes from her. I agree though, who cares about that, the music is still amazing.

  24. J.... H....

    Best song on this album

  25. a.... v....

    Listen to this in my dads car with him

  26. J.... R....

    I could have an entire conversation with someone just quoting Brand New lyrics.. and that person would be smarter after our talk

  27. S.... E....

    jake Allen is hot

  28. m.... w....

    Found this in 6th grade imma senior now this is crazy!!!!!

    m.... w....

    mf wolf I've been listening to them since I was in middle school! And I'm 26 now

    m.... w....

    Just started my senior year...im still 17. Im getting OLLD

  29. A.... B....

    the chorus is the best part of the song imo! <3

  30. d.... T....

    How can a song be soo cool tone yet so fill with emotion and nostalgia!

  31. a.... _....

    swimming swimming swimming

  32. H.... ....

    fucking love this

  33. J.... J....

    The intro and that guitar just ahhhhh!!!!

  34. B.... D....

    I've seen them 4 times.. I have Deja entendu tattood down my rib cage.
    so many feels.
    haha 😍

    B.... D....

    how do you feel about the scandal tho? it hurt me to read it

    B.... D....

    I've seen then 0 times. :( Feel blessed that you got to see them.

  35. S.... M....

    What the shit does this have to Jaws? I was horribly mislead...then disappointed...horribly disappointed

    S.... M....

    Maybe relates to the atmosphere of being in deep shit aka parts of your life...then you're constantly eaten or in other words being in anxiety. Closely inspected it could relate to being in bad places and/ or being in dangerous waters such as in Jaws which reflects the title because it's a theme of being prey to waters you can't escape. Or it could also be about the jaws of people or people making out and that as you grow older what you offer out of what you are drowns and the best thing you become is a strainer of everything and things fall through. You strain yourself, your world is straining you and how much love you seek isn't enough because you know nothing is worth it and you're drowning in a sea of giving/taking/seeking.

    S.... M....

    Wait were you serious? Oh well even if you weren't that song was flowing well and I got my fix of memories. Thank you? Here's a gift card to a local cookie shop.

    S.... M....

    It's a song about the feeling of swimming in a body of water and suddenly hearing the jaws theme, applied to other situations out of water.

  36. c.... ....

    It's so hard to pick a favorite song from BN, but somehow this is the one that haunts me the most and is just special. I don't know why.

    c.... ....

    creepydorkk I really feel that. Def has a special and arthritic spot in my soul.

    c.... ....

    I feel that!

    c.... ....

    Bayside...

  37. B.... C....

    been listening to this cd for 12+ years <3

    B.... C....

    Brandon Croft keep going x

    B.... C....

    One of the best albums I own I believe.

    B.... C....

    I need this for my CD collection, I always come back to this album in specific
    I would want it on vinyl too but I don't have a vinyl player lol

    B.... C....

    Kudos bro. Been on it since it dropped. I was a youngin'... youngerer youngin. Still love it today.

  38. m.... y....

    can someone tell me what this song talks about plz

  39. W.... L....

    This song is therapeutic

    W.... L....

    It's about suicide lel

    W.... L....

    +Juan Ramirez I nvr knew that thanks no sarcasm I really learn something lol

    W.... L....

    All of their songs are, well mostly. A song about suicide can be therapeutic. I think we've all been in bad places that have seemed inescapable at the time, and it's healthy to explore those feelings and get a degree of catharsis through other means than actually acting on them.

    W.... L....

    probably my favourite YouTube comment of all time

    W.... L....

    The times I have flailed around my bedroom, air guitaring this song like Vin on stage :-o

  40. J.... G....

    Nothing like the original! It was 2 notes. 2 NOTES!

  41. B.... H....

    And I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud when they decide to try and take on the throne for the crown!!

  42. S.... ....

    Imagine listening to the Jaws theme while swimming

    S.... ....

    nah, not everyone can afford a Banks sized pool, you rich Bel Air fuck.

    S.... ....

    That's literally what the title asks you to imagine

  43. B.... ....

    This album is so incredible

    B.... ....

    +BonoLightier I first heard this album in 2003, when I was a senior in high school. It was literally the most amazing "emo" (for lack of a better term at the time) album I had ever heard, and yes I listened to shit like B182 or TBS or Goldfinger or Green Day or others. Well i'm 30 now and I still love this album, and every song Brand New has recorded since then. They are lyrical wordsmiths, unlike a certain type of nigga, and the band and Jesse's voice deliver them perfectly.

    B.... ....

    @Jameel _ 
    Thank you for sharing that! I really liked the fact that Brand New's music made you company all these years! That's really awesome!

  44. R.... L....

    Saw them a week ago. Awesome

    R.... L....

    @Rachel Lukasz Lucky bastard.

  45. D.... ....

    The chorus is too much to handle at times.

    D.... ....

    +dolour Most real people don't use silly flac format but yes we see your point.

    D.... ....

    +Jameel _ (Grenadeh) i was talking about lyrics but you audiophiles have me going back and trying figure out what you're hearing.

    D.... ....

    Not only is FLAC not the highest quality there is, it achieves the same quality as high bitrate MP3 at over twice the size. FLAC is fine for DJs, not real music listening situations. Not to mention no user-friendly program with any functionality supports FLAC.

    D.... ....

    +Jameel _ (Grenadeh) I need it in HRA don't i

    D.... ....

    sometimes we learn as we grow up, sometimes we don't. we make the same mistakes over and over.

  46. D.... I....

    Cannot wait to see them in September

    D.... I....

    @Dahlia Is Bleeding summer ends music fest? I saw them back in April and am going again in Sept. They are AMAZING live.

    D.... I....

    +Dahlia Is Bleeding saw them last night at Summer Ends... Incredible besides the fact they didn't play The Quiet Things or Jude Law

  47. C.... C....

    The shit!

  48. B.... W....

    Much thanks scatterbrain

  49. B.... W....

    WHOO HOO!!! Hot damn this song rocks. What was it about New York circa 1999 churning out Brand New and Tacking Back Sunday. Making my life better still.

    B.... W....

    @***** yes sir, good times... good times. Remember it like yesterday- only better.

    B.... W....

    I think it was 2001 bruh.

  50. B.... ....

    What's a sieve?

  51. A.... B....

    Never ever gets old. Ever. ♡

    A.... B....

    So good

    A.... B....

    Its the kind of record that makes nostalgia imminent

    A.... B....

    Truly <3 the whole album

    A.... B....

    Yeah, it never gets old because it's always brand new. 
    But, seriously, you're right.

    A.... B....

    +Steve Hatmaker I didn't know about this song as a kid but it still feels super nostalgic to me

  52. K.... G....

    cant get me head around fandom but I love these wordsmiths.
    I hate the industry.

  53. K.... G....

    olllddd

  54. L.... F....

    How have I not found this band before ? They are amazing !

    L.... F....

    You're sleepin!

    L.... F....

    omg i love introing friends to bright eyes, brand new, hawthorne heights, from autumn to ashes anyone add to this list

    L.... F....

    @Wolfus YT THANK YOU for reminding me of Bright Eyes. Sheesh. Great music.

    L.... F....

    so this band is... brand new to you? heh

  55. M.... E....

    This is one of my favorite songs ever

  56. b.... ....

    Some rules are made with all intentions to break

    b.... ....

    +blink182izawsm And she defends it with a warped rationale.

  57. K.... A....

    think about it, the melody is like something's about to happen, like when jaws is swimming around... denananananananana holy shit! and then the chorus kicks in so what he's saying is like the climax, "And we learn, As we age, We've learned nothing...." 

    K.... A....

    You're sooo right! This is one of my most favorite songs by them.

    K.... A....

    precisely. 

    K.... A....

    ...still swimming

    K.... A....

    K. A. Davis mind fucking blown I learned I’ve learned nothing at all

    K.... A....

    This isn't even the deeper stuff the song talks about. That's literally the surface level metaphor in the title, it's the first thing anyone should have noticed...

  58. G.... A....

    actually if you listen to the jaws theme song,then you listen to the music in this track, its a variation of it. :) their song titles have a lot to do with their music lyrics, just have to "really" listen and "feel" the lyrics.

  59. C.... D....

    i feel like if you think about it they make sense, i can see the relevance in this song

  60. r.... ....

    you learn as you age. it creeps up on you, like the jaws theme swimming.

  61. M.... M....

    Fantastic Album and Underrated Band

  62. M.... B....

    the bass line is similar to the jaws line.

    M.... B....

    Bowen Hardcastle no shit?

  63. J.... T....

    "And we learn
    As we age
    We've learned nothing
    And my body still aches
    And you take
    Cause they give
    Though I love you
    And my body it leaks like a sieve"

    10 years and still some of the best lyrics ive ever heard. Brand New will live forever <3

  64. c.... ....

    haha right, I think it was some kind of fad

  65. h.... ....

    So many bands do that! Panic! At the Disco, Fall Out Boy, A Day to Remember, the list goes on and on. :D

  66. b.... ....

    Debatable

  67. S.... L....

    Cuz They're ignorant fucks, that's why.

  68. t.... ....

    this song has a pretty awesome beginning..... and then IT SUCKS ASSSSS! FUCK I WISH I COULD MAKE THIS FONT BIGGER! MY COCK IS HARD

  69. i.... ....

    that isn't what the album is called. the devil and god are raging inside of me.

    i.... ....

    Idiot this is from their second album called "Deja Entendu" Think before you speak.

  70. y.... ....

    This sond gives me anxiety but the good kind

  71. j.... ....

    every song is emotional, no biggie

  72. Q.... ....

    I've seen what happens to the wicked and proud when they decide to try and take on the throne for the crown.

  73. S.... ....

    i always thought he said "with a warm thrashing mouth" instead of "warped rationale"

  74. S.... W....

    Don't like it then get the fuck out. Simple :)

  75. C.... N....

    What is this emo crap?

  76. A.... E....

    Iv'e listened to this album in school over a million bigillion times. Oh, how I love it.

  77. B.... ....

    I love porn. And this is my favorite song to listen to while watching it.

  78. c.... c....

    i like porn

  79. K.... M....

    its inside me* not inside my head dipshit, any brand new fan would know that

  80. i.... ....

    One of bn's best songs

  81. r.... t....

    >Implying people don't greentext outside of 4chan
    It doesn't have the same green smexiness but whatever.

  82. C.... D....

    i came here from the music of the movie Juno soundtrack cuz i recognized the album cover. brand new is awesome

  83. L.... i....

    well not with that attitude.

  84. M.... E....

    >Implying you never heard the devils and gods are raging inside my head

  85. t.... ....

    This song makes me wanna have sex, no idea why. Maybe it's Jesse's voice and how sultry the whole song sounds.

  86. B.... ....

    BEAUTIFUL ALBUM!

  87. C.... ....

    Going on a Deja Entendu marathon. Thumbs up if you're doing the same?

    C.... ....

    7 years later and yes i am

  88. L.... ....

    Appreciate Brand New.

  89. b.... ....

    Found this band by accident. Greatest accident since I was conceived.

  90. A.... R....

    Is this song about a girl being a slut?

  91. j.... ....

    sick comment! you must have quite a useful imagination my friend:) haha

  92. T.... ....

    it's true!

  93. c.... ....

    literally the best riff/hook ever
