lyrics

Little Big Fish

Big fish, little fish living in the sea
One day little fish ups and leaves
Says I no longer like your company
All you ever want to do is to eat me

Please, oh please, don’t go
Big Fish began to blow
How else could my life go on?
If you leave I’m a long-gone daddy-o

————————-

Big house, little house sitting on a hill
Big house says you’re so little still
It spoils the view from my windowsill
Move on over to that big landfill

You know I’d hate to go
I love this mountain so
The air is clear and crisp and clean
Just today it smells a little mean

————————-

Big man, little man wish upon a star
Big man thinks I’m better by far
God gave me a big head start
You’ll just have to play your part

Our gods are not the same
My pain won’t be your gain
I’ll rise above your own benchmark
Carry your load on your own back
