歌詞
Fred the fish was a different kind of fish
With an ambitious wish on his bucket list.
A curious guy, he looked up at the sky
And said, one day I’m gonna fly.
Half fish half dinosaur he dared to ask for more.
Not just meant to swim, but also born to soar.
To see what he could see, to seek new world’s boldly.
To make history in ichthyology.
Did he jump for joy? Was he trying to get high?
Was he looking for an answer, a fish wishing he was dry?
200 million years they’ve jumped and we still wonder why.
Some kind of secret fishy mission when the sturgeon fly.
When Thelma Sue’s boss got her goat
She loved to float down the Suwannee in her boat.
It was near the end of May on that fateful day
She was just minding her own way.
It all happened so fast in the blink of an eyelash.
The surface broke but she never heard the splash.
Then with a mighty SPLAT Fred landed in her lap.
She broke three ribs and got whiplash.
Did he jump for joy? Was he trying to get high?
Was he looking for an answer, a fish wishing he was dry?
200 million years they’ve jumped and we still wonder why.
Some kind of secret fishy mission when the sturgeon fly.
When sturgeon fly some kind of flashy fishy fling.
When sturgeon fly it’s like Moby Dick with wings.
Scaly astronauts shootin’ across the sky
Because it’s up there, they just have to try.
Whatever’s urging sturgeon remains a mystery
With its roots dug deep in an ancient history.
When reptiles ran amok long before such rotten luck.
When Thelma Sue - OOPS - forgot to duck.
Did he jump for joy? Was he trying to get high?
Was he looking for an answer, a fish wishing he was dry?
200 pounds of flying fish falling from the sky
Some kind of secret fishy mission when the sturgeon fly.
Way up high.
Some kind of secret fishy mission when the sturgeon fly.
