Catfish and the Bottlemen - Cocoon | Live @ JBTV

Fresh off the boat from Wales, Catfish and the Bottlemen have made quite a splash in the U.S. indie scene. Led by singer Van McCann, the boys have already played big name festivals like T in the Park, Reading & Leeds and the Governor’s Ball in New York. With their punky riffs and McCann’s strong vocals the Bottlemen were destined to be the next big fish in an equally big pond. Their second single from their debut album The Balcony is “Cocoon.” The song centers on a drunken adventure with a girl McCann fancies. It’s an expletive-filled love song for the modern age. Check out the explosive lyrics to "Cocoon" below:

I fell straight
Into your arms
Like a drunk
Who’s been on it
All morning.
And the sun’s up
And my head’s fucked.
And immediately I grab you
You go all red
Like the first time
I love it when you do that
God I love it when you do that.

I remember when we
Swapped names and I thought maybe
You’d stay and try to out-drink me
Your friends, all hated it!

Fuck it if they talk
Fuck it if they try and get to us
Cause I'd rather go blind
Than let you down.

I cocoon
Round your shoulders
When you’re half cut
And you’re frozen
And you’ve got that visible breathing
You’re depending on me again.

And if you wanna shut down and pose as positive and
Hide smoking from relatives and
Rest on me,
Honey, that’s all right!
And if you wanna act more drunk than usual
To help you get away with more than
Rest on me,
Honey, that’s alright!
Honey, that’s alright!
