Fishbowl Songtext
von Genuflect

It′s 3:33, in the morning
Make a wish
On my desk rests this fishbowl
That harbors my fish
Now I'm writing at my desk
Before I drift on off to sleep
But then suddenly I freak
Because my fishy starts to speak
And she says
"You are the one, trapped inside
Staring out through a distorted lens
That makes the whole world arc and bend
Then collapse and contort
Then divide and deceive
′Til it makes you believe
In what is make-believe
But it's all bullshit
Just give me one moment to explain"


Well, I was frightened
But surely, I could not refrain
Nor contain this small fishy from
Infecting my brain with her wisdom
From down in the depths of insane
She opened up my mind
And then she swam inside
How it tickled me sick
The way she wiggled and she writhed
She was swimming 'round in circles
She was circling the lies
As she was whispering her truth
Right through the backsides of my eyes
Well I screamed and I begged her
To SHOW ME NO MORE!
But she opened up "the vortex"
A revolving door
So we crossed through its plane
We then dropped down through the floor
As we were transported off
Onto some far away shore
At the ocean of creation
Within which we were born
A primordial potion
Of single-celled porn
Well, then what she whispered
Was so carefully scripted
She said
"You must swim back
To from where you drifted"

And that′s when I awoke
Still stunned
Still sitting at my desk
I stared up at my fishbowl
No fish, no damned return address
I searched through the halls
In the walls, in the veins
In the drains, in the pipes
And the star-light strings
I may not know where my fish went
But I do now know one thing

Something fishy!
Something fishy!
Something fishy!
Something fishy!
Is going on
