lyrics

An inch or two. Golden at best.
Within a Week, you've made a mess,
And I can't see your scaly face
I won my best friend at the fair
But in all truth, you'd found there
And gave me more than I could chase

I wanna dive in your water
I wanna swim in fish fodder
I wanna get in your mind
It's probably bigger than mine
You probably wish that I'd catch a fish daughter
My friend in the water

If I had money, I would bet
My fishy friend had intellect
My secret always safe inside
I'd tell him all about my day
He'd soon forget it, anyway
Plus, there was no place that he could hide

I wanna dive in your water
I wanna swim in fish fodder
I wanna get in your mind
It's probably bigger than mine
You probably wish that I'd catch a fish daughter
My friend in the water

And there you were all bellied up
And so I scooped you in a cup
And held the tears back in my eyes
I flushed you right down heaven's drain
And I felt guilty from the shame
That I had only fed you twice

Ahem...

I wanna dive in your water
I wanna swim in fish fodder
I wanna get in your mind
It's probably bigger than mine
You probably wish that I'd catch a fish daughter
My friend in the water
