Ice Nine Kills - Rocking The Boat Lyrics

Can anyone else hear a squeak at 3:25 or am I going nuts 😂

SHARK!

Coastguard this is the Orca do you read me? Four and a half miles
Two east of Amity Island
This is an official distress call, over

We all know a place that appears so sublime
But if you dive a little deeper, you'll hit the real bottom line
The head of the town is out there flashing his teeth
A telltale sign about to surface that there's a monster lurking underneath

They're thrashing around but found
They can't contain a leak
'Cause I've got a fish to fry
That's feeding on the weak
So cast a line for every life they took
It's time to set the hook

We're all just floating in a shallow grave
Buoyed by the blood of the masses
They'd rather sell out that instead of save
We're all so starving that we've taken the bait
You think we would've learned from the past that
The predator will soon become the prey!

We all know a place
Where the calm flees at night
And safe is just a shadow
So we swim towards the light
If this voyage of valor put us on deck for death
We'll compare scars with each other
Until our very last breath, yeah!

They're thrashing around but found
They can't contain a leak
'Cause I've got a fish to fry
That's feeding on the weak
So reel it in with every trick in the book
It's time to set the hook

We're all just floating in a shallow grave
Buoyed by the blood of the masses
That they'd rather sell out that instead of safe
We're all so starving that we've taken the bait
You think we would've learned from the past that
The predator will soon become the prey

Yeah, coastguard this is the orca again, we need you out here now
The boat is under attack
It's a great white, over
Roger that, ETA fifteen minutes, over
In fifteen minutes we'll be fucking shark bait!

Last chance to make amends
So try to stay afloat
With sharks like you among us
We'll need a bigger boat
Sold us down the river
So the rich could stay rich
But now you've been caught
So smile, you son of a bitch

Sinking with the burning embers
Should be any sign of doubt
That this tale will be remembered
And the tide will forever flush them out

We're all just floating in a shallow grave
Buoyed by the blood of the masses
They'd rather sell out that instead of safe
We're all so starving that we've taken the bait
You think we would've learned from the past that
The predator will soon become the prey!

Holy shit, even Jaws gets a song, of course this isn't surprising but holy shit

This is frl definition of the predator becomes the prey

Love it

I have personally watched Jaws over a hundred times and I realized I was sad that i will never be able to experience the same raw horror as the very first time I watched it.


And then those two iconic notes were played on one hard ass guitar. I am genuinely mortified again.
THANKS INK!

2:57 I had never heard of INK (I had heard the American nightmare, but that was it) before until I went to a Fit For a King concert last November. The tour was amazing. Halfway through their performance, I thought they were pretty good. Not 5 star, but pretty darn good for a band that sings heavy music about fictional scenarios, then 2:58 happens. My jaw must have gone to China because of how far it dropped.

SHARK!!!!!!
YOUR GONNA NEED A BIGGER BOAT 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈

3:29 I always thought it says "any sign of trout" like a pun on sign of doubt... only to come here and find that the word really *is* doubt...you missed a good opportunity for a pun here boys!!!

This REALLY needs a LYRIC video

I Love it 😍😍🖤

kid in my class had a “your gonna need a bigger boat” on the back of a jacket he has with jaws on the front I thought I was a ice nine kills jacket at first but nope just a normal jaws jacket lol still pretty cool tho

I think we need a bigger boat

Fun Fact: The song was based off their favourite movie Jaw's.

IN FIFTEEN MINUETS WE’LL BE FUCKING SHARK BAIT







*over*

I like to think of the Clintons when I listen to this. Don't know why.

My friend: doesn't like INK
Me: the predator will soon become the prey

This song is fucking amazing. Best new song I’ve heard in a very, very long time

Official video of spencer dress up as jaws

We need a video

Theirs a reason why we don't go into the water

RIP bruce

The humans did you wrong

it took me this long to figure out all the references

A song about the movie "Jaws" that actually has nothing to do with the movie and is just a metaphor for the current political climate.

Daniel Hinkle it’s more relevant to the Jaws book which featured much more lies deception and adultury, which was all an allegory for the current political climate. The movie had less about the mafia and skipped the whole adultury where Ellen cheated on Brody and gets caught.

this is my favorite fuckin album, lets see we got:
nightmare on elm street
friday the 13
halloween
jigsaw
jaws
enjoy your slay
edward scissorhands
it

enjoy your slay is the shining fyi. the est i think are right.

also the grave song is the crow.

"Roger that we'll be there in 15mins over"

"In 15 minutes we'll all be fucking shark bait!!"

I just love how they make songs inspired by iconic horror movies like Jaws, IT, The Shining, Nightmare On Elm Street, etc. Also did they ever made a chucky inspired song?

I want them to do a John Carpenters The Thing song.

That breakdown though 😍...... I came 😳

Me: I wonder if I'm gonna be able to guess what movie this song is about
First word:SHARK!!
Me: never mind

Love this song

😭 I've missed jeremy!!

I've found my new alarm gdi I was not expecting that
Love the album tho

Did Stephen Spielberg hear this song? Hope so

Queue the anime intro 0:40

This guy has such a great voice when he isn’t screaming like a call of duty zombie 😂 but this song is great so far my favorite song is this and stabbing in the dark, thank god it’s Friday and a grave mistake

Ice nine kills rocking the boat - based on finding nemo

Shark bait oonaha

I can't get enough of this CD!

2:57 OMG

I'm sorry but the way they sampled the jaws score is the most badass thing ever

Mommy shark,
doo doo doo doo doo

ashley Rodelli no...

We don’t do that here...

Please make a video to this song now... 🤘

I automatically their songs without even listening

Press Like if you blast this at the beach

Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo 
Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo 
Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo 
Baby shark!…

Rocking The Boat
Based on Jaws

Rocking the Boat
Based on Jaws

They referenced Last Chance To Make Amends. Get that album on Spotify.

This album is fucking hard as fuck this is the shit i miss right great job I'm obsessed with great white to do this song is my shit 🔥🔥 🔥

When anger with life this song makes me calm 🤟🏻

IX —PSYCHOS OΠLY

Inspiration
Jaws

Jaws i have seen the movie

You know it's a good band when they can stay true to the idea of Jaws while having powerful lyrics and subtly referencing their past albums -- in just one song. INK is honestly the best band ever. Much respect!

Orca, this is Coast Guard, do you read, over?

...

Orca, do you read, repeat, DO YOU READ???

Sir! There's some sort of shipwreck floating out in the distance!

My God. It got them.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.

I love how they have the jaws music but better

This song
Is accurate
Because
It’s tells on what happens
In the movie.

2:55 FUCKING BREAKDOWN WENT SOOOO FUCKING HAAAARD IT MADE THROW ALL THE STUFF IN MY ROOM

DAAAMN THIS ALBUM IS JUST......
Holy shit, also I’m new :D i’m going to listen to all of their stuff because for what I see in the lyrics they are referencing all of their previous work like Every trick in the book (I’ve only heard one song)

But DAAAAMN


I’m so happy I found this band ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

You Guys are Amazing.... I love All your work.👍..it's so diffrent and unique and exactly what the music industry needs!👊I have all your music on my mp3 and blast it out in the car... makes all my journeys so much easier💋You have restored my faith 😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙😙

This song is fucking godlike

I don't thinks a coincidence that when he says, "so smile..", that I smile 100% of the time

I love how simple and direct to the point the opening is. "SHARK!!!"

Jeremy <3

This song means so much as a 15 year fan of INK. I've had "IX" tattooed on my left arm for the past 10. Couldn't be happier with this album.

This has to be my favorite album thus far. Not a single song that I don't like.

Same here! It's just soooo good

Best song on the record and I’ll take that to my grave

WATCH THIS AWESOME VIDEO
https://youtu.be/qzrCmNg2Pvk

best song on the album.

Hopefully ice nine kills will make a music video

Tomorrow ♥️

Baby Shark do do do do do

This whole album is brilliant on so many levels. Never really heard of ice nine kills but they've got my vote for best metal album of the decade (so far) ;)

This song is the shit.

Jeremy please help this poor misguided band and release last chance to make amends II

Thanks guys I'll be back in the game soon. Much love 😘💁🏻

This band needs more appreciation. One of the few bands out there that can successfully combine meaningful lyrics and brutal vocals in beautifully written music!

same with Alteras

Noah Aldabashi meaningful lyrics? Lol. This whole album is about iconic horror movies...the lyrics are light hearted, fulll of puns and campy...not meaningful at all. But I get what you’re saying

wilsone100021 I liked how you expressed your difference of opinion without any anger & ended it with a note of empathy. Too many keyboard warriors are so nasty if they disagree with someone’s opinion so your comments & opinion are appreciated 👌

Wendy Repasky Can’t be a hater to anyone who digs good Music😎 The only reason i even responded to this nine month old comment was because I was just wondering what they’re gonna pull on their next album. Im personally kind of hoping for the meaningful lyrics (as they mentioned) and something deeper beyond songs about books/stories and horror movies

wilsone100021 You’re cool people, my friend! ✌️😊

Makes me wonder what would've happened if Jeremy stayed on as vocalist.

Personally loving the Era of Spencer

where's his vocals?

@dcannon121 The opening of the second verse and the callout part

Anyone else find the autotune at 2:11 a little off-putting?

There wasn't any auto tune there man. It was a voice waver.

@The Bowl Combo No, that's autotune

Also that breakdown fuckkkkk

those past albums references had me shook damn this album is so good!!

This album is going to be my favorite of all time I can tell

I love the innuendos of their past albums

love this band!

"Cause I've got a fish to fry" thats my new go to to threaten someone lol. You and I got a frish to fry buddy

BABY SHARK DODODODODODO-

I love this album

I’ve missed Jeremy’s voice. Wish he would just rejoin the band.

Chris Matsumoto he doesn’t like touring or being on the road. That’s why he left.

Which sections are Jeremy?

One of my favorite songs off the album 😜

Same 🦈

SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK

How i will react if i ever see a shark

@Desca red found it

There's a small creek close to where I live and every time I pass by and there's a bunch of people swimming in I love yelling SSSSSSSSSSHARRRRKKK!! just to throw everyone off 😂😂

Thanks I hate it.

References to their previous albums:

"You think we would've learned from the past that The Predator will soon Become The Prey."

"And Safe Is Just A Shadow, so we swim towards the light."

"Reel it in with Every Trick In The Book. It's time to set the hook."

"Last Chance To Make Amends
So try to stay afloat. With sharks like you among us, we'll need a bigger boat."

"Sinking with The Burning embers should be any sign of doubt."

I love when musicians do this.

@TempusEdaxRerum I find the writing a bit weird in some songs, But it's weird in the good way. ALSO I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG...

Also just “The Predator” but I guess that could be grouped with “The Predator becomes the pray”

I'm glad you wrote this comment, cause if you didn't, I was going to.

I’m so happy I’m not the only one who realised it’s every album from the past from them

How good!!

New jaws movie coming out ! XD

This album is hot fire

Wtf le dislike x.x

Toujours des cons😂

my favorite movie and band all in one omg im dead

Como me encanta este album ❤️

The references are beautiful and this whole album is amazing

SHARK!

Aaaahh the reference hope they rerecord the burning or last chance to make amends like when they rerecord safe its just a shadow :^)

Owlrror GotScared
the burning (reburned and re recorded)
Last chance to make amends. (Remended and rerecorded)
That'll be awesome to hear. And get Jeremy off and on for that

Love this song so much, just feel fun, and the Jaws theme in the breakdown is <3

these lyrics are deceptively deep. props to them for being so sneaky with thier word play.

Notice how they self promoted their other albums. Safe is just a Shadow, the predator becomes the prey, and every trick in the book.

also the burning and last chance to make amends

@Killua Zoldyck true
