Badfish

(album: Second Hand Smoke - 1997)

When you grab a hold of me
You tell me that I'll never be set free
But I'm a parasite
Creep and crawl I step into the night

Two pints of booze
Tell me are you a badfish, too (are you a badfish, too)?
Ain't got no money to spend
I hope the night will never end

Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef?

Baby, you're a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
I swim but I wish I never learned
The water's too polluted with germs

I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef underneath my bed (underneath my bed)
Ain't got no quarrels with god
Ain't got no time to grow old

Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef?

Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to get old

Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef?
