Divine Comedy - A Seafood Song Lyrics
Wholl have a fishyOn a little dishy?Who will have a fishyWhen the boat comes...And then he saysWith our glasses both raised in a toastLets sing for those in peril on the seaWho cater ceaselesslyTo thy every wishWith every fishAs fresh as fish can beYou see, Im into my oystersMy king prawns and caviarNo matter how far away they areIll be there!And then she says,Now with our glasses both raised in this toastLets sing for those in peril on the seaWho labour tirelesslyIn their tiny boatsOff john o groatsTheir socks soaked for meYou see, I do like my lobsterMy hake, skate and rainbow troutAnd if theres a fishy smell aboutIll be there! and thenAnd then well sing for those in peril on the sea...Dont be frightenedDont be scaredChop off their headsAnd little legsThen peel away the shellAnd open up your senses to the smellThe sound and colourTouch and tasteOf crab, cod, clams and kippersScampi, squid, sole, shark and scallopWinkles, whelks, whale and whitingSeaweed, swordfish, sardines and sea urchinHaddock, halibut, herrings and eel*****les, mussels, mackerel and vealPilchard, plankton, st peters fish and plaiceOcto***** jellyfishyAnd dolphins an aquired tasteWho will have a fishyOn a little dishy?I will have a fishyWhen the boat comes in...
