the aquarium

i was sitting in a diner, reminiscing

it was then i saw this aquarium full of fishes

some silver some golden some blue

and one with a face like a kazoo,

they were going up and down

i asked will they never drown

he replied they are fishes not you

they swim they eat and never feel blue

i felt happy for them

and exclaimed are they not phlegm

after all they live alone they swim alone

and flaunt a life as if a rhinestone

he said you are wrong, they are happy 

and every moment they sing a song

i asked what can i learn from them

he said just be happy and get rid of this mayhem

i was sitting in a diner, reminiscing

it was then i saw this aquarium full of fishes
