"I Wish I Were A Fish" Lyrics

I wish I were a fish.
I'd spend most every winter in Bermuda
And mingle with the bass and barracuda.

I'd swim and sway
And splash the time away.
And I'd be free to roam around and see
The wonders at the bottom of the ocean.

I'd love to be a porpoise
That would really be a lark,
If I were an electric eel
You'd really see me spark,
And what a meal I'd make of you
If I were a shark!

I wish, I wish I were a fish (wish I were a fish)
I wish (I wish) I wish (I wish)
I wish I were a fish (a fish)
'Cuz fishes have a better life than people (people)
They don't have all the care and strife
of people (people)
A fish can swim, that's all they ask of him.

A fish (a fish) is free (is free)
To roam around the sea (the sea)
And look for love wherever he can find it (find it)
He flirts with every lady fish
As she goes swimming by
And if she gives her tail a swish
And winks a fishy eye
A minnow all at once can be a whale of a guy.

I wish (I wish)
I wish (I wish)
I wish I were a fish (I wish)
