Poor Little Fish
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 came 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, and that was that, yeah
Your perfume on my sleeve
You lit my life like a Christmas tree
Up into the sky, yeah
Poor little fish
Swimming in the water
Hide behind the coattails of your father
Y’know, a cold, cold heart sleeps awful well
While the maids vacuum the hall outside my cheap hotel room
