[Intro]
Good morning, flood of blood
Good morning, everyone

[Chorus]
C
O-double
M-O-N

[Verse 1]
A wave, an awesome wave
That rushes skin and widens in flooded veins
Breathe in, exhale
I've poked a nerve; he'll slap me like a whale

[Chorus]
Slaps the C
O-double
M-O-N

[Verse 2]
Tide out, tide in
A flood of blood to the heart and the fear slipstreams
Breathe in, exhale
I've poked a nerve; he'll slap me like a whale

[Chorus]
Slaps the C
O-double
M-O-N

[Outro]
Flood of blood to the heart

​​alt-J

alt-J is an English indie rock band that consists of vocalist and guitarist Joe Newman, keyboardist and bassist Gus Unger-Hamilton and drummer Thom Green. Gwil Sainsbury was the band’s bassist before leaving the band in early 2014.

Formed at Leeds University and signed to a label in Cambridge, UK, the band originally made songs on Garageband before releasing them under the pseudonym ∆.

∆’s name takes a little explaining. Pronounced alt-J, the delta sign is inserted when you press alt and J on a Mac keyboard.
