Floundering - Lyrics by Stan Ridgway


Lyrics

Tonight i'm looking for someone to tell my troubles to
Some fish will swim but some fish just get caught
I'm walkin' by a market and i remember me and you
Feelin' like an old filet that no one bought


Chorus:
Nobody knows, nobody sees
I'm caught downstream, and i'm floundering


Walkin' by the old canal, i sit down along the shore
I throw one lonely duck my last french fry
I had a dream of drowning¨c¨ci heard the underwater roar
So pack me up in ice, and take me home to fry


Chorus repeat x2


And late at night, i hear the wind just yawn
Some fish will swim, some fish will spawn


Chorus repeat x2
