Big Eyed Fish
A glimpse into the doubting world of a pessimist. The stories all relate
how bleak life is, and how death has to be better than existence.

Look at this big - eyed fish swimming in the sea oh How it dreams to be a bird swoop and diving through the breeze
So one day caught a big old wave up on to the beach Now hes dead you see beneath the sea is where a fish should be
But oh God Under the weight of life Things seem brighter on the other side
You see this crazy man
decided not to breathe He turned red and blue - purple, colorful indeed No matter how his friends begged and pleaded
the man would not concede And now hes dead you see the silly man should know you got to breathe
But oh God Under
the weight of life Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh God Under the weight of life Things seem
so much better on the other side
No way, no way No way out of here
You see the little monkey sitting up
in his monkey tree One day decided to climb down and run off to the city But look at him now lost tired living in
the street As good as dead you see what a monkey does - stay up your tree
But oh God Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh God Under the weight of life Things seem so much better on the
other side
No way, no way, no way No way out of here
Rain in my dreams
Fall away
