Young the Giant are an American alternative rock band who formed in Irvine, California in 2004. The band consists of Sameer Gadhia (vocals, percussion), Jacob Tilley (guitar), Eric Cannata (guitar), Payam Doostzadeh (bass) and François Comtois (drums). The band's name is purposefully nonsensical; Gadhia explained it as a "leftfield idea" meant to evoke curiosity.
The band released their debut self-titled album, Young the Giant, on 25 January 2011, which was preceded by a digital-only release in October 2010.

[Verse] DA Life’s too short to even care at all oh GA I’m losing my mind losing my mind losing control DA These fishes in the sea they’re staring at me oh oh Oh oh oh oh GA A wet world longs for a beat of a drum Oh
DA If I could find a way to see this straight I’d run away AGA To some fortune that I should have found by now
[Bridge] (Repeat DAGA pattern) Uhh ch ch ch ch
[Verse] DA Life’s too short to even care at all oh GA I’m coming up now coming up now out of the blue DA These zombies in the park they’re looking for my heart Oh oh oh oh GA A dark world aches for a splash of the sun oh oh
[Chorus] DA If I could find a way to see this straight I’d run away AGA To some fortune that I should have found by now AD And so I run to the things they said could restore me DA Restore life the way it should be AGA Waiting for this cough syrup to come down DA Life’s too short to even care at all oh GA I’m losing my mind losing my mind losing it all DA If I could find a way to see this straight I’d run away AGA To some fortune that I should have found by now AD So I run to the things they said could restore me DA Restore life the way it should be AGA Waiting for this cough syrup to come down DA One more spoon of cough syrup now GA One more spoon of cough syrup now
