The Lyrics

Psychology of a fish.
well, I guess it would be nice
if I could eat those wormies
I know not many wormies
who are so fat in my pool, ooh

but I gotta think twice
before my lip will tear away
from human games they tend to play
and they're playing cruel

oh, so I'll take some time off
from upward motion
time to eat some creatures off the floor
oh, and when worms come down with
much contortions
well, it takes a strong mind baby
to pass over such a course
so I'm taking the bait
I'm taking the bait
yes, I'm taking the bait-a, bait-a, bait-a
I'm taking the bait-a, bait-a, bait-a

save me!
this hook is asking me to stay
it's in my lip can't get away
it seems they've given me a ruse

maybe, hah
my short-term memory fades away
remember vaguely yesterday
when another human tossed me back after giving me a pull

there's hooks in rivers
there's nets in oceans
there's people throwing harpoons from the shore
oh, oh, baby, but I reconsider
my paranoia
bottom-feeding looks quite safe now
but I wait for something more
so I'm taking the bait
mmm, I'm taking the bait
yes, I'm taking the bait-a, bait-a, bait-a
I'm taking the bait-a, bait-a, bait-a

glub-glub-glub-glub-glub
glub-glub-glub-glub-glub
glub-glub-glub-glub-glub
you won't have to wait
because I'm taking the bait
I'm taking the bait
I got to got to got to have bait

there's hooks in rivers
there's nets in oceans
there's people throwing harpoons from the shore
oh, oh, baby I reconsider
my upward motion
bottom-feeding is much safer
I'll play danger games no more
(pause, short-term memory is lost)
guess I'm taking the bait
mmm, I'm taking the bait
yes, I'm taking the bait-a, bait-a, bait-a
I'm taking the bait-a, bait-a, bait-a

There are two obvious jokes to go with this, and here's one of them: Somethin' fishy's goin' on here. I'll leave it to somebody with a mind dirtier than mine to drop the second obvious joke, but I'll give you a hint: George Michael himself might be involved.

Heh heh... if your mind isn't that dirty, then how did you make the connection, Michael P?

Hmm... Funny parody here. 5-5-5. Since you know fish, you should check out my parody "Fish's Lament". It's a parody of Marc Anthony's "I Need To Know"...
