wanna be a tropical fish
in a large luxurious tank
with no worries about payin’ bills
when funds are dwindlin’ in the bank
makes sense to me – I love the water
in this wet world I would play
chasin’ guppies & neons
in jerky circles all day
my owner would be kind
my tank she’d decorate
she’d leave the tank’s light on
til it was very late
every other day I’d dine
on different kinds of food:
Aquarian flakes or micro granules
frozen bloodworms to be pursued
yeah, sounds good to me:
a beautiful fish in a tropical tank
until the alarm clock rings
‘n from this lovely dream I’m yanked
