Fish grunt,
click, whistle and cough
To one
another,
As they
swim about
But
They are
fenced in
And
fattened up into apefood.
But, it is
wrong to restrain these swimmers.
And that is
why we make our plea
HEY, FISH
FARMER
Let them
fish swim free
Let them swim
all around the world,
Hydrodynamically.
It just
ain’t right,
As you must
know,
To put
haddock in paddock
So let them
trout out
And let the
salmon run free
Let the
bream beam
And the
snappers snap
Hydrodynamically.
NO, FISH
FARMER
Don’t
constrain these finny beings
They can do
better
Than be
kept in by nets
Yes these
fish got feelings
SO, FISH
FARMER
Get humane
with your Cod
Let the
plaice go to every plaice
Let the
skate take off
And let the
dogfish go dogging
All around
the scallops’ abode
Where the
congers are all conging
Let the
eels feel free
To go
wherever they want
All along
the Blue Whales’ road
