The band's debut album,Young Chasers, was released on March 30, 2015 on the Virgin EMI label and was produced by Dan Grech. Harriet Gibsone in the Guardian described the album as having "traces of We Are Scientists, the Kooks, the Libertines and Razorlight". It features the title track from their 2014 Young Chasers EP, as well as the singles "T-Shirt Weather" and "Fossils".
The band's second album, Different Creatures, was released on March 10, 2017, on the Virgin EMI label and was produced by Alan Moulder and Kieran Shudall. After releasing three different singles ("Wake Up", "Fire That Burns" and "Stuck"), the band came up with a deeper and more mature composition that keeps the first album's energy adding more meaningful lyrics and unusual instruments like violins and cellos.
On 5 April 2019 the band released their third studio album titled, What's It Like Over There?, to critical success. It was supported by the singles, "Times Won't Change Me", "Movies", and "The Way We Say Goodbye". The album earned critical acclaim for its mix of indie and pop rock, as well as the experimentation by the band. It peaked at Number 10 on the UK Albums Chart.
On 19 November 2019 the band released the single "Jacqueline" via BBC Radio 1. The single was accompanied by the announcement of their fourth studio album Sad Happy. The album was released in two parts, with the 'Happy' side released in January 2020 and the 'Sad' side followed in March 2020. According to the band, the double album concept "represents two sides of this tech-saturated, highly insecure age".
Stuck In My Teeth
Circa Waves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As I was the other week
I got you stuck in my teeth
And though you take me for a fool
I've got better things to do
Then to prove myself to you
That road end is too long
Another year with no strings
But it's fine
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I woke up half the man I was
Fingers burnt down to the bone
Conversations on my own
If I could take me in, I would
And contradict the batting good
And find myself a brand new home
But you know I won't get back on
That road end is too long
Another year with no strings
But it's fine
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I'm a little too young with not enough time
But you know I won't get back on
That road end is too long
Another year with no strings
But it's fine
I'm a little too young with not enough time
The lyrics of the song Stuck In My Teeth by Circa Waves have a reflective and introspective tone. The singer begins by stating that they are not the same person as they were before and that they have thoughts of the person they desire stuck in their head. Though they are not sure if the person takes them for granted, they insist that they have better things to do than prove themselves.
The singer then expresses regret for the state they find themselves in, waking up as half the man they were before, with their fingers burnt down to the bone and having conversations only with themselves. They express a desire for a better life, to contradict what they believe is the “batting good” and find a new home. However, they concede that they won't go back to a road that leads nowhere, even if it's tempting to do so. Finally, they state that they are a little too young and have not enough time to waste on things that aren't important.
The song seems to be about the singer's dissatisfaction with their life and how they want more from it. They may feel like they are stuck in a rut and want to change their circumstances. Despite this, they are doubting themselves and are uncertain if they can make the changes they desire. They do not want to return to the same old road, but they also do not know how to move forward. The refrain “I’m a little too young with not enough time” conveys a sense of urgency and a fear of missed opportunities.

I swear to god I'm not the same
I want you to know that I have changed.
As I was the other week
I was a different person than I am now, just a short time ago.
I got you stuck in my teeth
I can't stop thinking about you.
And though you take me for a fool
You underestimate me and my abilities.
I've got better things to do
I don't have time for your games.
Then to prove myself to you
I won't waste my time trying to impress you.
But you know I won't get back on
I won't go back to the way things were.
That road end is too long
I recognize that the journey back to the past is too difficult and not worth it.
Another year with no strings
I am content being single and not tied down by any commitments.
But it's fine
I am okay with my current situation.
I'm a little too young with not enough time
I feel the pressure of being young and not having enough time to accomplish everything I want.
I woke up half the man I was
I am not feeling like myself lately.
Fingers burnt down to the bone
I have been working hard and feel exhausted.
Conversations on my own
I have been spending time alone and reflecting on my thoughts.
If I could take me in, I would
If I could change myself, I would.
And contradict the batting good
But I struggle to overcome my own bad habits and tendencies.
And find myself a brand new home
I long for a fresh start and a new beginning.
