Grizzly Bear - Deep Sea Diver Lyrics
I'm a deep sea diver with my fins
and underneath your current I do swim
a baker's dozen pertty pearls
and where I travel on my toes do curl
cause you, you got everthing that I want
you got everything that I want
Just keep me a while
Just keep me a while
Just keep me a while
Just keep me a while
I'm a deep sea diver losing air
and around here I'm sad swimming
you don't care

Grizzly Bear Deep Sea Diver Comments
this song is my blood type
This comment section gives me that graveyard feeling.
Still my favorite Grizzly Bear song :')
[Verse]
I'm a deep sea diver with my fins
And underneath your current I do swim
A baker's dozen pretty pearls
And when I try them on my toes do curl
'Cause you, you got everything that I want
A car, the house, the dog
You got everything that I want
[Bridge]
Just keep me a while
Just keep me a while
Just keep me a while
Just keep me a while
Just keep me a while
[Outro]
I'm a deep sea diver losing air
And around you laps I swim but you don't care
I love it when they allow the mix just one decibel of breathing room. @@
Never gets old
advertisements are death in disguise
Too bad the audio resolution is... really bad.
I love this video so cool
Mine too
can't believe this is 10 years old!!
Sinead M yea cuz it's 12yo
Sinead M 10 yrs old? This came out in 2004, its 13 maybe 12 when you wrote this comment
And pop music is 10 times worse.
I get a lot of The Smiths vibe in this
first saw this vid on subterranean on mtv (1hr of indie music videos) back in 2005. wow this band has come along way.
@TVinmyEye So did I! The first time I saw this, 2005, at 2am in my parents basement.
@Daniel Modica haha, yeah wish that show was still around.
Why do all the lyrics sites say the third line goes as follows: "a baker's dozen pertty pearls," pertty isn't even a word! I always thought it was "thirteen pearls" because a baker's dozen is thirteen. He even says thirteen if you listen. Am I missing something?
+Thomas Conway pertty is another way of saying "pretty"
either one works though
Purrrrrrrrty pearls. :)
Songwriting isn't as rigid and ruleset as that - everything is up to interpretation and sometimes it's left ambiguous on purpose. Purrty or thirteen? Why not both?
Sufjan Steven's "dress looks nice on you" he sings - I can see a bed and make it too, but it honestly sounds like he sings I can see you better naked too. Why does it have to fit one or the other? It's probably ambiguous on purpose!
yes, i like that! art can be interpreted in many ways and i see what you mean :)
+I'll Walk He's also making a wry reference to the phrase 'pearl necklace'. "And my toes do curl.' Funny song.
Thomas Conway nope. People are just dumb.
Still love them even though they're kind of mainstream now.
Mainstream by indie standards
+Louise Para http://www.stereogum.com/1165101/grizzly-bear-are-not-rich/top-stories/
Sunmonks LOL nice reply. Animal Collective are also mainstream that doesn't mean they aren't as awesome. Same with Grizzly Bear.
Grizzly Bear aren't even close to being mainstream...I don't understand this comment at all. And besides, even if they were, they still make amazing music. You shouldn't judge music by it's popularity unless it's ridiculously mainstream. Especially in cases like this.
528,496 people have great taste in music, minus the 25 douchebags that gave this video a thumbs down.
Shut the fuck up.
tyler durden wouldnt give a fuck
I've always felt very close to this album especially considering when it came into my life. It will always remain my favorite by Grizzly Bear.
still my favourite song of theirs
I don't think so.
this is hd
I love early Grizzly Bear!
I call it music!
no. YOU'RE the man! :p
Someone make this 1080p please D:.
Drugs are related to this song because it sounds good while high.. derp...
That's my interpretation of the video. I speak of LSD my child
this song means that? and what do you mean second tab? sorry im just interested in these kinds of things
This video is B E A U T I F U L .
I'd call it surrealist folk.
seriously, i know drugs stimulate the brain and make you see things in different perspectives, but it gets annoying afterwhile. people still have creativity to them.
people who make epic music oftentimes use drugs so thats a somewhat better stereotype
...Vote mitch romney 2012!
Its an experience, at least they arent relating a racist or hate inclined experiece to the tune. deal with it.
everything is a reaction
but that just steriotypical of the "weird" definition, which is hypocritical because then it doesn't make it weird if common.
maybe because u people are dumb..... :)
Made me think of 'The life aquatic with Steve Zissou'
Enhance or distract?
Cause that's where most of that stuff comes from, prime example: '60's and '70's and honestly the '80's
Fact. drugs makes everything better!!! fuck those straight edge ppl who says they dont need drugs in life!! well obv!! you dumb fuck!! we dont need drugs, cept we use drugs to enhance everything! from our perception to feelings to thought. what im really tired of is ppl comparing psychedelic users to meth, coke, herion users. learn the differences.
Grape Powa You ever look back and think, “wow, I was a dumb shit”?
Whatta great little illustration we have here
THIS song specifically makes me feel under water haha! Horn of Plenty is so unique and awesome!
If this is what "the kids these days" are listening to, I feel there may be Hope after all...
No appreciation for Aquatic rock.
You must not know what music is, then.
k seriously, i like "two weeks" and all, but this stuff is just garbage
i got so attached to Veckatimest for the longest time that i assumed that a lo-fi Grizzly Bear would not sound good. I was wrong as fuck.
i love u
I think it means that in life there are many obstacles that get in our way and intentionally make our lives harder, but in the end we all suffer the same fate.
im not talking shit about grizz cause I love acid but how much acid did these guys do
I think they just put a lo-fi effect on the voice and slowed it down. So fucked up man.
I'd much rather watch this video, with its endless creativity and imagination, rather than watch some rapper with put-on false confidence and throw money at half naked women.Yea,hat-uhs gonna hate -.-
a comment about drugs
i like video its like an old commador game :) proper retro!!!! wel b4 utube n fb n all tht those was the days cassette tapes squeely noises coloured lines on tv while loading and after waiting through all tht it crashed :(
@Natasmai56667 so you are staying fucking beautiful?_? thanks for your propelling comment...best
mark walberg is commin for me
Grizzly Bears me explota la nota a otro nivel!!
@Natasmai56667 that actually makes a lot of sense.
beautiful
it means everyone who ever made you happy and everyone who ever confined you until all you could feel is sadness dies. it's all one big cycle in which carbon coincidences interact with each other and the environment to procreate and ultimately find out what it all means, but in truth it means nothing and we're all just dipping in and out of this endless cycle and the only thing that that's getting accomplished is our ultimate demise... or maybe just that i shouldve skipped on that second tab
pinches CDs de estos weyes aca no se venden nada....
@tokugawahisaka07
divers get killed and go to a kick ass underworld to disco dance with skeletons, what's to get?
What does this mean!?
Listening to this, lying on a bed, feeling like I'm floating. This must be what Heaven is like.
aw the lyrics to this song are so good
just cause somethings weird and different, why do people have to compare drugs with it? fuck'em
i love drugs
i think this is a reference to Dante's Inferno? but its probly just drugs
PAUL WHO WAS A GHOST now goes scuba diving.
These guys must have sat down and ate a bucket full of mushrooms together.
awesome! it reminds me of Cirrus Minor by Pink Floyd.
van gogh on mescal
and around you laps I swim but you dont care
wow first ad I didn't skip!
props to Tyler Coburn! this video is somehow beautiful to me.
Darwin Deez has a song called Deep Sea Diver...can't choose between them!
you ever trip acid?
@tokugawahisaka07 aren't they playing Shoots and Ladders?
whhaatt, you guys dont.. get their videos?....(;
I'd like to play this game.
These videos are almost too good that the music isn't getting enough of my attention! Love it though!
God I wish I had artistic abilities. Even just mediocre skills. The ability to convey the images and feelings in your head is the greatest gift.
If I was a caveman, I would jam to this by the fire
@rycal1 Or 'Grizzly Bear Vs. Caribou',... a worthy match I must say. :)
@JoshuaSuperham I've always thought of Grizzly Bear as something like Grizzly Bear.
I think of Grizzly Bear as Devendra Banhart, Animal Collective and Post-Pet Sounds Beach Boys :D
@rycal1 yeah man it becamed a habit from me that i am only writing titles when i am searching a grizzly bear video :D
this video is so amazing. i love it a billion times very much. wow that made sense lol
do they make these videos with stoners and hallucinogen takers in mind?
@JoshuaSuperham Sounds about right actually, both great bands too
@rycal1 some algorithm.Nobody's ever on the other end of the line = (
This band blows my mind!!!! They have a sound that goes right through me.
I love the end.
I NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON IN GRIZZLY BEAR VIDEOS.
this is better watched when high. probably because it was made when they were high.
Why am I always utterly confused when I watch a Grizzly Bear music video?
@MoondogUSA what's a "thing like a time signature change" are you talking about a key change? Chord progression?
the real music!!
the real music!!
Why don't you go guard a bridge, pshht Trolls.
