Poor Little Fish

Chorus:

Poor little fish, swimming in the water

Hide behind the coattails of your father



I've been alone so long i thought i'd never last

Stuck up on a shelf like an old dusty hat, yeah

But then you come along

You put me on that throne

Up into the sky, yeah



Thought i saw nick cave down at the laundromat

You put your hand in my hand ant that was that, yeah

Your perfume on my sleeve

You lit my life like a christmas tree

Up into the sky , yeah



(chorus)



Y'know a cold, cold heart sleeps awful well

While the maids vacuum the hall outside my cheap hotel room

The whole damn shit came down

Exploded to the ground

Pusssh, up into the sky, yeah



(chorus)



Where you are is who you are

When you're sleeping

Where you are is who you are

When you're sleeping



Poor little fish

Poor little fish

Poor, poor little fish

Poor, poor little fish
