I got an aqua rock, and it’s mine all mine For to occupy till the end of time The lands I command form an ocean so deep None dare assail my sea green keep Go on, take a look beyond my window sill A vaster fleet for to do my will Tentacles that writhed at my touch now wither See your path is clear my wave bird come hither My brothers and my sisters are here with me A million little fishes in the deep blue sea

I’m behind the door in my chamber of lore Ya know I’ve got one eye on you Watching as you grow and absorb with the flow You go into a deeper blue You’re free to make most any mistake, ya know Of course I’ve swum there too But my other eye is pointed at the sky, ya know Star-fishes guide us true
5.
The tide comes in, and it goes back out again All my brothers and sisters were there with me Ten million little fishes in a deep dark sea And our time was almost up Time was high to empty out those cups And the sky was turning black But the moon was shining down Don’t tell me that my fate is sealed lord You can meet me on that battlefield I will be your sword and shield You be the power that I wield Ten-fold armies crumble down Be there when the trumpets sound It’s the sound that calls me home It’s the sound which lets me know, I’m not alone All my brothers and sisters are here with me Ten million fishes swimming in a deep blue sea

No cannonball has breached my stronghold! No kraken can collapse my walls! No sinister wave disturbs my slumber! No siren song will cause me to fall! I emerge, uncorrupted, heedless of the vile tide. Tentacles writhe and wither before me. No shark school is safe where I ride!
8.
I want to sleep with the fishes and get away from it all yeah the livin is easy where the tentacles crawl if you just listen you can hear the call don't know what you're missin we could have a ball way down, below the waves in a watery grave I wanna go! no sky above me, no earth below suspended and swirling safe in the glow under the ocean oh yeah, I know that ya worry, but it's alright it'll pass eventually it's just that right now I want to sleep with the fishes

just because you're nothin now don'tcha beg for destiny you don't have to know a thing to be high functioning plenty came before you who never heard the truth spend each moment so vividly before you get long in the tooth advice sounds so sweet from the lips of a lover when you grow up you can push him and shove her no bubble contains you unless you let it spill yourself ever outward lest you regret it

Wave bird- You're the flyin' kind Wave bird - Always on my mind Wave bird -Always look so fine When you fly to me

about

The Creature from the Black Lagoon
The Incredible Mr. Limpet
Cyrano de Bergerac
& a bad pun

mix them all & u get Sir Fish
an excursion by The Muties into the Realms of Aqua-Rock
chronicling the adventures of the titular hero

our maiden voyage into these waters was disastrously botched
due to a tragic technical blunder
only 7 rough mixes survived (tracks 6-12)

we rallied our ambitions & a second attempt was made
sadly this vessel also sank before long
leaving 5 songs salvageable (tracks 1-5)

as such, the story of Sir Fish remains incomplete
some songs appear twice, others not at all (!)

but who knows what the fish's future may hold
or what grime-encrusted treasures may float
up from the murky depths


(download comes with a bonus track!)
