Track #10 on 1992’s The Wayward Bus, the second album released by The Magnetic Fields and the last to feature Susan Anway as lead vocalist.
[Verse 1: Susan Anway]
You held me upside-down
Till I couldn't breathe anymore
Then you held me like a baby
Television, like wine
And cigarettes like grains of sand
And raspberry schnapps like a thousand sunsets
[Chorus]
The boys talk like they own the world
The women keep their stupid diaries
But suddenly there's a tidal wave
And everything is sucked out to sea
[Verse 2]
There were probably birds
Outside our little room
I don't remember anything but you
We must have been the butt
Of all the jokes in the world
For trying to live like Pippi Longstocking
[Chorus] (x2)
The boys talk like they own the world
The women keep their stupid diaries
But suddenly there's a tidal wave
And everything is sucked out to sea
The boys talk like they own the world
The women keep their stupid diaries
But suddenly there's a tidal wave
And everything is sucked out to sea
Suddenly There Is a Tidal Wave was written by Stephin Merritt.
Suddenly There Is a Tidal Wave was produced by Stephin Merritt.
The Magnetic Fields released Suddenly There Is a Tidal Wave on Wed Jan 01 1992.
