Smash Mouth - Who's There Lyrics






You you look to the stars for answers
Your face glowing in blue
You smile at the thought that there's something out there
Suddenly a smile turns to a stare
A million tiny light bulbs shining
Through celluloid across the country
Little green men
Eyes shielded with a shaky hand
The women screaming
And the children gather and wonder
Who's there
Who's there
Fond of a night out in California
It's late an interruption in space
You smile could there be someone out there
Suddenly the smile has been erased
The radio crackled voices
With obvious and used excuses
Blue gas burning above
Flicks and cartoons bumber stickers
In preparation for tomorrow
And the children gather and wonder

[Repeat Chorus]

A million tiny bulbs exploding
Out the theatre doors they're screaming
Ushers pick up treasures
Little nervous mens co-ordinance point at the moon
And the children gather and wonder

[Repeat Chorus 2x]

Smash Mouth Who's There Comments
  1. D.... ....

    why is this album so good, but all the albums after are pretty crap? did the fame ruin them? did the coke run out? idgi

  2. J.... S....

    This album is fantastic...perfectly nostalgic!

  3. A.... S....

    My teacher was playing “walking on the sun” earlier today in class. Decided to listen to some of Smash Mouth’s other songs. I have to say, wow. Definitely a good choice

  4. B.... V....

    The first album I bought when I was 12 years old, back in 1999

  5. c.... ....

    0:00 *Nuruto Runners start sprinting at Area 51*

  6. J.... R....

    I wish to go back to 1999 so I can stay at the Astro Lounge and play this music and also play good games like Spyro, Gran Turismo, Tomba and Croc. I also wanna watch their T.V. so I can watch Pokemon, classic Spongebob, South Park, Simpsons, Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, Hey Arnold, CatDog, Dexter's Lab, Recess, classic Family Guy and Angry Beavers.

  7. M.... D....

    I admit I’m one of the thousands that makes fun of smash mouth, but all joking aside, apart from their “hits” this album is very enjoyable and underrated! I’m really digging it... just feel ashamed I could have enjoyed it all these years and never gave it a chance

  8. M.... ....

    \ “A L I E N S” /





    ...I miss that meme.

  9. M.... G....

    this just sounds like a pillows song but ok

  10. S.... W....

    Don't mind me, just strolling through to listen to all the tracks my mom wouldn't let me listen to as a kid.

  11. K.... Z....

    Is something wrong with my brain? I loved this album as a kid, listened to it non-stop in 2000-2001 time frame and I can sing every word to every song. So why don't I remember this song at all?

    K.... Z....

    too much weed, most likely!

  12. S.... 3....

    I only found the band Smash Mouth because of "All star". Let me just say that I very glad I checked out their other songs too. This whole album is one of my favourites

  13. R.... ....

    I hear some heavy Pixies and Frank Black influence here. I loved this album as a child, not just all star.

  14. E.... L....

    better than all star

  15. A.... F....

    Scooby-Doo was here lol

  16. D.... C....

    I got into this album about 2 years ago and this album is good

  17. f.... ....

    Just reconnected with this gem and reinforced that it's one of my top 10 favorite albums ever.

  18. S.... 3....

    I don't know why, but I really love the part of the song at 2:20

    S.... 3....

    2:26 for me.

  19. a.... ....

    SOMEBO- oh my bad.

  20. M.... M....

    This is better than all-star, and is so under rated

  21. C.... ....

    Smash Mouth are unironically geniuses.

  22. C.... E....

    there was something about when i watched shrek. I must have been thinking ahead and looking back at my child

  23. F.... ....

    I unironically enjoy the whole album.

    F.... ....

    Same here

    F.... ....

    not a hard thing to do

    F.... ....

    As a kid I would play this record end over end and skip All Star because I was sick of it, but the deep cuts are so good

  24. S.... C....

    This is my favorite song on this whole Album. I love Aliens and always thought they were neat. I just wish me and my fiance would get abducted already. ☺

  25. K.... ....

    Makes me so sad Smash Mouth is only praised for their hits and meme-related songs. This album is 90s GOLD!!!

    K.... ....

    Kolendo yes! Had this on cassette tape

    K.... ....

    Kolendo Yo! I’m your 90th like! Whatcha think?

  26. J.... ....

    Just having a great time of horror and nice music on space with Astro Lounge and Dead Space.

  27. V.... ....

    The inactiveness of this chat.

    That aside, this song and the album in whole is REALLY good

  28. T.... M....

    Why does this remind me of New by No Doubt?

  29. S.... A....

    * Coming to terms with the fact that Smasmouth are an unironically good band *

    S.... A....

    I had this album when I was a little kid. I love being 26 and remembering the 90,s fondly

    S.... A....

    @Toke the Dude no offense but what did that had to do with anything from his comment except "its a good band"

    S.... A....

    Yeah man, hated them back in the day, now singing along like a fgt. WTF happened?!

    S.... A....

    Stokes A I’ve not heard of Smasmouth.

  30. s.... j....

    Fantastic band in so many ways. Not overproduced but big sound.

  31. C.... B....

    Nostalgic song

  32. t.... r....

    I found my new favorite pop punk band.

    I can't believe after all of these years, I have never looked at them much more than a meme. They are so much more past All Star.

    t.... r....

    Smash Mouth isn't really pop punk. They're more of alternative rock/ska punk. I'm listening to their first album just to see how their other stuff sounds. It's better than their other stuff so far!

  33. R.... ....

    fads aside, this is a good pop rock album

    R.... ....

    My band is playing it and I offered it as a joke first. They said it's a great idea but I had my worries. After playing the bass and really getting to know the song, the band is actually great!

  34. a.... s....

    its an ok song

  35. R.... R....

    open your mind to just think if there are aliens somewhere out there!

  36. G.... S....

    this is one of smash mouths best songs

    G.... S....

    That's like saying a certain kind of cancer is "one of the best kind of cancers".

    G.... S....

    Joshua Tarr If you're implying you hate them, then you have extremely poor taste.

  37. C.... M....

    im down1!!!1

  38. R.... G....

    so sexy

  39. J.... S....

    Listening to smash mouth while smoking kush, talk about relaxation.

    J.... S....

    Thats what im doing right now,shits great.

  40. E.... S....

    Back in 1999-2000 my classmates(4th grade) would bully me and one of the reasons they would do it was my love for this album. it got so bad that I broke this CD, they broke my confidence and self esteem so bad, now I listen to it and think, why would someone be bullied over such a great album??!! I wish I could do it all over and listen to it anyways just to give a big middle finger to these douchebags.

    E.... S....

    +Erik Skidmore Screw the bullies. You're the fonz.

    E.... S....

    +PepeEsGallante YASSSSS

    E.... S....

    Erik Skidmore dude screw those kids!

    E.... S....

    Liking Limp Bizkit was the cool thing back then... but now days you get bullied for liking Limp Bizkit

    E.... S....

    i asked for it too when i came out. i also loved limp bizkit, korn, and metallica. be yourself!

  41. V.... \....

    *I. WANT. THIS. BACKGROUND. PICTURE. SO. BAD. IN. MY. ROOM.*

    V.... \....

    I still have the album cover up on the wall. It expands into a scene of all the band members and their robo-waitress inside the lounge. Disc died a long time ago, of course.

  42. M.... E....

    Bought the CD from the music to the art cover its the most late 90s, frosted tips, pizza space party shit ever and I love it

    M.... E....

    raceyboy dude I remember trying to dye my hair blonde and it didnt work out at all ahhhahs

    M.... E....

    That is... Surprisingly succinct

    M.... E....

    So glad I'm a 90s kid!

    Edit: and that I had a cool dad who is only 20 years older then me!

    M.... E....

    Between this comment and your profile pic, I see that you are a man of culture as well.

    M.... E....

    "Late 90s, frosted tips, forward swoop, middle school, high school, college, pizza space party, cool kids table shit"

    The image I get when listening to this song.

  43. W.... S....

    I want this album to be on vinyl SO BAD.

    W.... S....

    @KaBlamBandicoot64 Why doe?

    W.... S....

    @Aquin It was definitely worthy of a vinyl, Vinyl sounds rich and this album sounds rich and warm like a really good vinyl.

    W.... S....

    KB Bandicoot it will In due time I'm sure

  44. T.... G....

    I love this song "And the children gather and wonder  Who's there?  Who's therere"?

    T.... G....

    +Thomas Gillespie IT IS I, GOD. LISTEN TO MORE SMASH MOUTH. IT IS THE SHIT! STAY IN SCHOOL AND ALWAYS BRUSH YOUR TEETH! *voice fades away*

    T.... G....

    +Tannis , you really look nothing like God (Elohim) or Jesus or the Holy Ghost. Your avatar looks more like female Cherubim Cupie doll Archer Angel. Thanks for your fun comment. Smash Mouth ASTRO-LOUNGE IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE ALBUMS .... VOICE BURNS OUT ... better to burn out than fade away....... pyromania

  45. l.... ....

    This should have been an opening montage of a live Dragonball movie with Bulma riding on her motorbike!

    l.... ....

    THAT WOULD WORK SO WELL

    l.... ....

    Yeah before she first meets with little Goku. The sound of this fits with the style she has and the bike running!

    l.... ....

    First off,NO. We already did a live action dragon ball movie and it was NOT good. Second,you are right. It would fit

    l.... ....

    @shadowboy8456 If someone like Robin Shou directed it, DBZ live would have been absolutely badass.

  46. M.... ....

    middle school days!

    M.... ....

    Pre school days

    M.... ....

    Eiffel 65 too!

    M.... ....

    Max lol 5th grade days!

    M.... ....

    Oh man, this hits hard emotionally

  47. T.... ....

    Back in the 90's the summers were longer, TV was better (Power Rangers!), PC games were cooler (Doom & Duke Nukem!), and the music was AWSOME! (Like this song)

    T.... ....

    Yep. Those were the days.

  48. i.... ....

    @M5ftw Young grandparents

  49. A.... T....

    @santillokid i know, fuckin kesha and justin beiber kind of shit ruined it

    A.... T....

    Alexander Topliffe lmao it only got worse

  50. s.... ....

    i miss this kinda of music...

  51. c.... ....

    @gatorboymike I love this song too. Your remark reminds me of Sugar Ray, back in their "Mean Machine" and "Speed Home California" days before "Fly" got really popular and they completely changed their format. Hurrah for the old days.

  52. s.... ....

    this was one of my favorites!!!

  53. M.... ....

    @santillokid

    I used to pop this tape in my player as I rode my bike to work...and also when I had to go to summer school! lol Fun times. Great listening material for trips like that.

  54. M.... ....

    I MISS THIS ALBUM! FUCK!

  55. s.... ....

    @gatorboymike

    Word.

  56. g.... ....

    I miss the old Smash Mouth. Forget the watered-down, G-rated, Nickelodeon-friendly mess they became.

  57. s.... ....

    damn i used to love this song! i always went down stairs to my bros room and i would hear it. :) those days were the best.

  58. c.... ....

    Saw these guys in concert after a ball game for free................they rocked!

  59. s.... ....

    Man... I haven't listened to this band since I was 5.....used to have their cassette tapexD Man.. I still know the words too:) Thanks whoever put this cassette of theirs on here:) You just made me really happy:)

    These guys rock. Still.

  60. S.... ....

    Even I know this is about aliens, I still imagine it as being a song about God with the "Children gather... there" part.
