Throwing Muses - Fish lyrics

rate me

I

Have a fish nailed

To a cross

On my apartment wall

It sings to me with glassy eyes

And quotes from Kafka

I sings to me

An eel is squirming on my couch

He's talking up a storm

I'm laughing at his face

He slithers down across the floor

I'm laughing

I

Have a man

It follows my hips with his hands

Don't worry (I'm laughing)

Dance in the road (I have a man)

And it explodes

(It follows my lips with his melting eyes)

Don't worry

Dance in the road

Fellow turns a fishy eye from the counter

I feel at his hand

Stalking in the grey

The girl behind the counter

Sees a fin (school)

An eel slithers to the chalkboard

It writes 1 plus 1 plus 2 plus 3 plus 4 plus 5

plus 6 plus 6 plus 6 plus 6 plus 6 plus 6

Don't worry

Dance in the road

And it explodes

Don't worry

Dance in the road

The house is reeling

I'm kneeling by the tub

Lonely is as lonely does

Lonely is an eyesore

The feeling describes itself

I

Have a man

It follows my hips with his hands

I'm laughing

At a man

It follows my lips with his melting eyes

Don't worry

Dance in the road

And it explodes

Don't worry

Dance in the road

Eye...

I'm painting his eye in the middle of the floor

Fish is frozen in my living room

Stares out of a block of ice

With one melting eye... eye... eye...

(Whoo!) Aced it

Sick
