About Cocoon

"Cocoon" is about a guy who falls in love with a "good girl" - everyone else thinks she's too good for him, and the song details how they slowly become more alike. It appears on Catfish and the Bottlemen's debut album The Balcony. In an interview with NME, frontman Van McCann describes the writing process as beginning during his life if New York when he was 21: "It was just this kind of tune about like, fuck what anybody else wants for you or thinks you should do, life is whatever you want, there is no right or wrong way of doing it. .

Cocoon Lyrics

[00:07.02] I fell straight
[00:08.55] Into your arms
[00:10.52] Like a drunk
[00:12.36] Who's been on it
[00:14.10] All morning
[00:15.90] And the sun's up
[00:17.86] And my head's fucked
[00:21.38] And immediately I grabbed you
[00:24.99] You go all red
[00:26.65] Like the first time
[00:28.14] I love it when you do that
[00:31.54] God, I love it when you do that
[00:35.34] I remember when we
[00:36.75] Swapped names and I thought maybe
[00:40.59] You'd stay and try and out-drink me
[00:44.14] Your friends all hated it
[00:49.71] But fuck it if they talk
[00:53.47] Fuck it if they try and get to us
[00:57.02] 'Cause I'd rather go blind
[01:00.52] Than let you down
[01:03.57]
[01:07.94] I cocoon
[01:10.06] 'Round your shoulders
[01:11.97] When you're half-cut
[01:13.79] And you're frozen
[01:15.08] And you've got that visible breathing
[01:18.42] You're depending on me again
[01:22.32] I remember when we
[01:23.78] Swapped names and I thought maybe
[01:27.38] You'd stay and try and out-drink me
[01:30.90] Your friends all hated it
[01:36.50] But fuck it if they talk
[01:40.36] Fuck it if they try and get to us
[01:43.84] 'Cause I'd rather go blind
[01:47.56] Than let you down
[01:50.92] But fuck it if they talk
[01:54.95] Fuck it if they try and get to us
[01:58.45] 'Cause I'd rather go blind
[02:01.98] Than let you down
[02:05.47] And if you wanna shut down and pose as positive and
[02:10.77] Hide smoking from relatives and
[02:14.28] Rest on me
[02:16.36] Honey, that's alright
[02:19.82] And if you wanna act more drunk than usual
[02:24.41] To help you get away with more then
[02:28.75] Rest on me
[02:30.74] Honey, that's alright
[02:34.28] Honey, that's alright
[02:37.68]
[03:10.85] I cocoon
[03:12.69] 'Round your shoulders
[03:14.62] When you're half-cut
[03:16.28] And you're half-cut
[03:17.63] But fuck it if they talk
[03:21.58] Fuck it if they try and get to us
[03:25.05] 'Cause I'd rather go blind
[03:28.63] Than let you down
[03:32.27] I remember when we
[03:33.67] Swapped names and I thought maybe
[03:37.45] You'd stay and try and out-drink me
[03:40.86] Your friends all hated it
[03:46.93]
