LYRICS
If your best trick’s drastic
Irony of a one-trick-pony
Ain’t that funny
When it cuts ya to the quick
Chorus:
As I’m watching the fish jumping
Head scratching as I’m thinking
Which am I… fish or fly
Which will die… swallow or fry
Can I only face the surface
Or am I willing to dive deep
If we don’t outpace the human race
Ya won’t even hear a peep
(chorus)
Bold to assume both I’ll consume?
Please remain king of the food chain
Yet no matter how hard I try
My know-how’s gonna die
(chorus)
No sense to weep. No sense to cry.
Distraught knot?
Distraught not!
[The fish eats the fly
Then both are eaten by I
We’re all going to die
Would you rather be swallowed or fried?]
