"Life As A Fish" lyrics

"Life As A Fish"

First they say the angels sang
And then, The Big Bang
That was the first day, there's six more
From organisms to single cells
Mutate to shells
Then mutate into spores

On dry land (Dry land!)
Where the living scream, "Die, man!" (Die, man!)
Aw

By the seventh day, He rested as He looked at them
Those made... those men

Guess it's safe to say that they don't know
Since they're not alone
And there's no dusk or dawn
As they never washed ashore
But, of course – what for?
Who cares what lies beyond?

On dry land (Dry land!)
Where the living scream, "Die, man!" (Die, man!)
Aw

They see our boats
And say, "Oh, no. Not them again."
And scream, "Swim, just swim!"

So while the federal buildings blow
Below
Fish glow
How lovely that must be
You should'a listened to Jacques Cousteau
Don't say
You know
Stop sending your trash to sea

Leave it on the dry land (Dry land!)
Where the living scream, "Die, man!" (Die, man!)
Aw

He made this world
Took it and gave it back again
And we learned
Nothing

Nothing
We... we learned nothing. Right?
