If I Were a Fish

If I were a fish I could wiggle all day I could splash in the water I could float, I could play If I were a fish I would eat so little I would glide up to the glass to my owner’s hand, the middle If I were a fish my life would be the best. I would not have to have a litter box or a cozy nest If I were a fish I would finally be happy said the cat The fish stuck out his tongue at her And called her names like fat Maybe I am better out here with the rat Inside with that moron would be bad I guess I could also stay a cat
