Superchunk - Learned To Surf Lyrics
If I seem out of it
I've just gone to find you, I'll be back in a bit
Circles close up but circles are wide
We'll be wearing wigs and costumes, won't need any hole to hide
I can't hold my breath anymore, I stopped sinking and learned to surf
When I learned to talk, I found words that weren't worth dirt
I can't hold my breath anymore, I stopped swimming and learned to surf
If I drift out in channels way too deep
Its 'cause I can't stand the shifting sand and shells under our feet
Put your suitcase down, and leave your shoes
Gently by the door, in a puddle with your blues
When I learned to walk, you know humans roamed the earth
When I learned to talk, I found words that weren't worth dirt
I can't hold my breath anymore, I stopped swimming and learned to surf
When I learned to walk you know humans roamed the earth
I can't hold my breath anymore, I stopped swimming and learned to surf
When I learned to talk, I found words that weren't worth dirt
Heavy like the rocks we carry, I stopped sinking and learned to surf
I stopped swimming and learned to surf
Stopped swimming, learned to surf
I learned to surf
I learned to surf

Superchunk Learned To Surf Comments
uns queridos
so on a website I opened that I didn't know had music on it started playing this and I got so scared and then I realized it was coming from this... so I searched up the lyrics and now I love this song!!
Holy crab balls! How did i not know Superchunk was still making records, sounding as great as 20+ years ago? ...(Retroactively kicks self in ass for the last 20 years.)
I like this mix more than my cd.
Vaias pra quem deu deslike.
Seeing Laura Ballance rocking makes me so happy.
I have a crush on Laura Ballance
This is majestic songwriting.
I love them regardless but the drums have been shaping this band into something superior for 20 years
When I think about NC...Cary, Apex, Chatham County, Durham - Jordan Lake and then hell yeah - this awesome band!!
Don't recall seeming Philly Boy Roy rocking a beard before. . . . .
Brasil!!! Show thanks SUperchunk
I've loved you guys since your first album came out in 1990, and this is one of your best songs. Thank you.
Never seen Jon Wurster with a beard before. . . .
perfect.
supercool!!
Nothin beats that intro
this is my favorite song <3
It is criminal that such a great song has less than 10 million views!
I've never seen them live, its a quest!
@mike bosi i have. old days and new days......i saw them without Laura on bass....i was very sad. they are super nice. ive seen them like 6 times at least and i always talked with members before the show. really cool people.
+mike bosi I've seen them in each of the past 3 decades, and while 1994 Superchunk were different from 2001 Superchunk, who were themselves different from the 2010 version, they are always great. I've been lucky enough to talk to them on a couple of occasions, and even got my copy of "Incidental Music" signed at a small show in '99.
Surperchunk Brasil love s forever
Come back to Brazil!!
Love you guys!
i found adorable hwo you made this video. really cool!
ahhh. i remember back there in 1998, when i have the pleasure to be in a superchunk gig in belo horizonte, minas gerais, brasil. i wrote a quote based on a sonic youth's song (screaming skull) and i also asked them to play "for tension". i badly could believe when they start playing it. finishing the concert, mac and jon came to talk with me and friends. what a night! thank you. this clip/music rocks! love you !
I actually DO Surf every day...! And, I try to listen to Superchunk often, nearly every day.
This music and video is an inspiration - thank you Superchunk!
This song and band ROCKS!
Welcome to Brazil <3 amo amo amo
They're good. I saw them in Sept at DelunaFest but they were not this active live. Kind of just stood there. But still good.
What does that have to do with anything?
ah, man: a band that 20-ish years into it, hitting their stride-everything is perfect in this song.
all tucked Insulation Right on. Give me a hit off that thing.
ESTE FOI O SOM INTERNACIONAL DEEEEEE SUPERRRRRRCHUNK
only 1500 view??? Something is wrong =(
this song is amazing!!!
It's going on two years or so since i 1st heard this guitar riff. I still luv it from chorus to chorus. So good.
Just listen to the collaboration of guitar lines and drum. This is just awesome!
Próxima parada Atlanta Sep 8th. >--s-u-p-e-r-c-h-u-n-k--> \o/
