Eels is an American alternative/acoustic indie rock band formed by singer/songwriter Mark Oliver Everett, better known as "Mr. E" or simply E. Other members rotate frequently, both in the studio and on stage. Eels were officially founded in 1995 when Jonathan 'Butch' Norton and E met Tommy Walter. The name "Eels" was chosen so that the band's records would be close to E's solo records in an alphabetical ordering. In 1996 the band released their debut album Beautiful Freak.

D If the world's a rotten place GA You better just forget it D In the crowd just another face GA Gonna make 'em regret it
CG Take a heart and squash it hard DG Like a little grape CG Push it down 'tween boot and ground DG 'Til it loses shape
(GCDm) FC And if you feel like you can't swim DG When you're thrown in the lake (GCDm) F Just watch the bugs C Passin' by you as you GF Slip under their wake DGA (simple picking) Again
If you let your feelings shine You better cover 'em up, kid Ain't no sense in wastin' time Dream behind your eyelids
Take a heart and squash it hard Like a little bug Swig it down and spit it out And kick it under the rug
And if you feel like you can't swim When you're thrown in the lake Just watch the bugs Passin' by you as you Slip under their wake Again
Take a heart and squash it hard Like a little ant Scrape it off the sole of your shoe On the welcome mat
And if you feel like you can't swim When you're thrown in the lake Just watch the bugs Passin' by you as you Slip under their wake Again
