The Oyster and the Flying Fish

An oyster was a-travelling
Along the ocean road
He'd been some time preparing
And now he'd left the fold

He was sick of being oysterised
He wanted to explode, to explode
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
Ooh la la la la la, ooh la la
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
La la la la la, la la la la

He saw a pretty flying fish
And said if I could have one wish
I'd change into a flying fish
And then I would be happy, yes I would
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
Ooh la la la, ooh la la la la
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
Ooh la la la, ooh la la la la la

The flying fish came down to see
Just who had made this plea
And seeing the poor oyster
Said this cannot be
An oyster has to stay inside
And a flying fish must flee, all the time
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la ooh la ooh la la
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
Ooh la la, la la la, la, la, la, la

As the oyster turned to go away
The flying fish was heard to say
If I could find a place to stay
I know I would be happy, yes I would
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, ooh la la la, ooh la la la la la, la
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
Ooh la la la, ooh la la la
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la ooh la ooh la la
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
La lalalalalalalala ...
