Lizard & Fish

Lizard and Fish - Oh, what a pair

One lived underwater and the other breathed air

On a shelf in a pet store, on aisle thirteen

Lizard and Fish would sit together and dream

And Lizard said “Fish, how's the water today?”

And Fish said “(bubbling noises)”

And Lizard said “Somehow, we'll both get away

And be a refugee lizard and fish.”

Lizard was bright, he was clever and sly

There wasn't an escape routine that he hadn't tried

And Fish was a master of keeping his cool

While dreaming about the day he'd go back to school

And Lizard jumped up on the wall of his tank

And Fish said “(bubbling noises)”

And Lizard said “Somehow, we'll get to the riverbank

And we can live like a lizard and fish.”

One day there was a fire in the back of the store

And all the animals were screaming and squawking

And otherwise talking

About the terrible stench and the roar

Of the flames. Then, suddenly, Lizard and Fish were

Grabbed from their homes, by Pee-Wee Herman

Who was clearing out the burning store and putting all the animals

Outside

And Lizard said “Fish, we're finally free!”

And Fish said “(bubbling noises)”

And they built a rocket and flew to the moon

Where they spent their days eating flies a lot

And singing about the wonderful day

The store burned down and Pee-Wee saved them

And looking at the stars cause they were really, really pretty

And living their lives like Lizard and Fish
