Fallen Horses
Smash Mouth Lyrics
A long summers day,
Stetching out the cold
Searching for the answers,
And some say I'm not alone
Could you tell me
Where I might find
Fallen horses?
Their spirits they fly .
Blinded by the whiteness,
I'm wishing that I had wings
So that I could become one.
Would you help me
If I wanted to die?
I could ride off
With horses tonight.
[Chorus]
Tell me why!
Why oh why?
I said why.
Why oh why?
Now that I've arrived here ,
I know I'm not alone.
All my friends among me
Tell me welcome home.
But could you tell me
Where I might find
The one I'm looking for?
'Cause her wings have arrived.
[Chorus]

Smash Mouth is an alternative rock band from San Jose, California, United States that formed in 1994, the band comprises Steve Harwell (lead vocalist), Greg Camp (guitarist/songwriter), Paul De Lisle (bassist), and new drummer since early 2006, Jason Sutter (replacing Michael Urbano, who left due to creative differences). Their hit songs include "Walkin' on the Sun" (1997) and "All Star" (1999).
Focused at times playing "neo-ska" music, the band has adopted retro styles spanning several decades of popular music Read Full BioSmash Mouth is an alternative rock band from San Jose, California, United States that formed in 1994, the band comprises Steve Harwell (lead vocalist), Greg Camp (guitarist/songwriter), Paul De Lisle (bassist), and new drummer since early 2006, Jason Sutter (replacing Michael Urbano, who left due to creative differences). Their hit songs include "Walkin' on the Sun" (1997) and "All Star" (1999).
Focused at times playing "neo-ska" music, the band has adopted retro styles spanning several decades of popular music, as well as performing covers of popular songs such as The Monkees' "I'm a Believer" and War's "Why Can't We Be Friends" as well as cult favorites such as ? and the Mysterians' "Can't Get Enough of You Baby" (though their version owes more to The Colourfield's interpretation; in fact, the band at first believed it was a Colourfield original). Smash Mouth's first album Fush Yu Mang came out in June 1997. This album could be said to be "neo ska". Its top position in the charts was #19 (on Billboard). The promo for this album said that "While the twelve songs on Fush Yu Mang sound like they belong side by side, each has it's own feeling like the very '60's "Walkin' On The Sun," the surf 'n' turf of "Nervous In the Alley," the Buzzcocks like "Pet Names," the Mafia rock of "Padrino," and the fret rock of "Let's Rock"." Smash Mouth's second album Astro Lounge was released two years later, in June 1999. It is the band's most critically and commercially successful album to date. It reached #6 on the Billboard charts and it featured the massive hit All Star.
Smash Mouth released their third album Smash Mouth (Self-Titled) in November 2001. It has been said that this is the band's most experimental album to date. It reached #48 on Billboard charts. Smash Mouth's fourth album Get the Picture?, released in August 2003, wasn't as well-received by fans or the critics as previous albums (it only reached #100 on the Billboard charts). Smash Mouth released a Christmas cover album in November 2005 (The Gift of Rock). Their newest album is called Summer Girl, and, after being delayed for over a year, was released on September 19th, 2006. Smash Mouth's music was used in the film "Shrek" and they starred on-screen as themselves in the turbulent finale of the all-star-comedy "Rat Race", while performing "All Star" on stage during the showdown.
In May 2011 lead singer Steve Harwell agreed to eat two dozen eggs in one sitting for charity. That June, Harwell apparently backed out of the challenge -- with over ten thousand dollars for overseas children's hunger charities at stake -- potentially because he is afraid to eat the eggs. Fans continue to demand Harwell eat the eggs.

My FIL died 3 months ago from cancer. At 66, he left behind a wife, 3 kids and 4 grandchildren. I haven't stopped listening to this song since. So very fitting. WHY, indeed :( When he reached heaven, I'm sure all his friends told him, "Welcome Home". A long summers day,
Stretching out the cold
Searching for the answers,
And some say I'm not alone
Could you tell me
Where I might find
Fallen horses?
Their spirits they fly .Blinded by the whiteness,
Staring at the sun,
I'm wishing that I had wings
So that I could become one.

If I wanted to die?
I could ride off
With horses tonight.[Chorus]
Tell me why!
Why oh why?
I said why.

But could you tell me

'Cause her wings have arrived.

I'm starting to actually like Smash Mouth. I wish they weren't such a meme.
Joe Cool
The world is a stage. Don’t be a player...
nickhirst999
And what is that supposed to meme? er...mean, I mean?
Kevan Chong
I like family guy but they desecrated one of my all time fav songs, gosh I didn't like stewie so much after that
Meen P
Dude smashmouth is good.hella high quality
Firm B
Smash Mouth deserves to be known as more than a meme and frankly that notion is idiotic. Astro Lounge and Fu Shu Mang were two incredible albums of the 90's and worth checking out.
Tomasi Akimeta
This entire album is one of the most underrated pop gems of the 90's.
Joe Cool
Totally agree. Not sure why this didn’t take off
Ben Spicer
Totally agree. These guys were awesome
Jordan Murray
its All Star's fault, that song made them famous but also made everyone not take them very seriously as musicians, and from a musical perspective most of this album is brilliant
