You always said you were the compa**ionate one But now you're laughing at the sun With all your high cla** friends you think you've got it made The only thing you made was that tanned look on your face With all your cigarettes and fancy cars You ain't a clue who or what you are You're dreaming your life away Fish out of water Go swim in the tide today Fish out of water We used to sit and talk about primal scream To exorsice our past was our adolescent dream But now it's sink or swim since your memory fails Now in neptune's kitchen you will be food for k**er whales And on the crucifix his mother made Hangs one more martyr to the hit parade You're dreaming you're life away Fish out of water Go swim in the tide today Fish out of water You're dreaming you're life away Fish out of water Go swim in the tide today Fish out of water
