Fish Out of Water Songtext
von Simon Scardanelli

What d′ya wanna be a hero for, You know you'll only get yourself noticed
Sticking your big head above everyone.
What d′ya wanna climb that mountain for, You know you'll only slip and hurt your big toe,
Surely there are safer ways to have fun.

Life would be easy if you'll just settle down,
Ah, but life would be hard without crying,
Trying, and digging and flying,
Like a fish out of water, I drown.

Why do ya wanna go to outer space, You know it′s cold and there′s no cable t.v.
What're ya gonna do on rainy afternoons?
Why do ya wanna go so deep-sea diving, Maybe some big fish is gonna eat you
Don′t'cha know they got them all in the zoo.


Life would be easy if you′ll just settle down,
Ah, but life would be hard without Trying,
Crying, and digging and flying,
Like a fish out of water I drown.

Life.
Ahh, life.
Like a fish out of water, I drown.

Why do ya wanna leave your hometown, All your friends and family's here, I think they′ll miss you.
Don't'cha think you′ll get a little lonely too?
Why do ya wanna go adventuring, It′s not as if there's nothing here you couldn′t do,
Don't you know, we got our own mountains too?

Life would be easy if you′ll just settle down,
Ah, but life would be hard without crying,
And trying, and digging and flying,
Without slipping and falling,
And aching and crawling,
Like a fish out of water, I drown.

What d'ya wanna be a hero for, you know you′ll only get yourself noticed.
