Lyrics
My Fish Family
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a man on the front porch
Says he's related to me
But lately I'm finding
it hard to believe
This house is filled with
spooks and ghosts
They say they're family
But they are strangers at most
They're strange fishes of the deep blue sea
And absolutely nothing like me
They swim around their little treasure chests
When it comes to loving me they give it their fish best
But it's hard with all those scales
Of good and bad you see (2nd time: Of morality)
They're my fish family
My fish family
They may try and hook me
Or put me in a tank
They may try and book me
For robbing a fish bank
'cause misunderstanding comes easily
But they're blowing bubbles
And I can hardly breathe
And when will they understand
I Just wanna marry a man
Without seaweed in his teeth,
Without barnacle for hair
Without seaweed in his ears
But their fish ears won't hear me
They're my fish family
They're strange fishes of the deep blue sea
And absolutely nothing like me
They swim around their little treasure chests
When it comes to loving me they give it their fish best
But it's hard with all those scales of morality
They're my fish family
My fish family.
