Been living underwater but I sure dug the sea But no-one could hear me out when I leant back to scream Coming through the shelves to live in the dirt To keep from the sun, to keep from getting hurt Gettin' gone You got a lot to learn Ahh got a lot to learn from getting Gone gone gone Been feeding on contributions from the folks on the bridge Throw the scraps on out when they need a trip So I flap my tail and give a high-pitched squeak Just so they could leave me in between the rocks to sleep Gettin' gone I wasted so much time that I Oh wouldn't swap the line of getting Gone gone gone You got a lot to learn Ahh got a lot to learn from getting Gone gone gone I don't know where the sadness starts 'Coz I'm so happy I could die Just give me long enough to live Yeah an' it's only when I fly I wasted so much time that I Oh wouldn't swap the line of getting Gone gone gone You got a lot to learn Ahh got a lot to learn from getting Gone gone gone
