Cuddlefish
All my antics and my gibberishPut a damper on my sentencesI'm a [cuttlefish/cuddlefish]Trying to cover up my incompetenceMaybe your fancy just isn't ticklishMaybe your heart belongs to another fishBut on your part that'd be foolishBaby, I think you ought to think through thisThe sea is big, big, bigAnd it's full of scary thingsLike great white sharksAnd colossal squidAnd I'm worried about youI don't want you to get hurtIf you love somethingSo they sayYou should set it freeBut I disagree'Cause I can safely say thatCatching and releasingIsn't what I'd ever want for meI know I know better than you doWhat is best for you to doSongtexteCan't you see the logic there?It's superlogical.My perspective is an outside oneAnd that's really saying something'Cause we don't have mirrorsAnd since we're under the waterThere isn't a surfaceFor you to see your reflection inNot that you don't look niceIn fact, how wonderful you lookIs exactly what the problem isThe sea is big, big, bigAnd it's full of scary thingsLike great white sharksAnd colossal squidAnd I'm worried about youI don't want you to get hurtIt guts me every timeI hear you're frequentingSuch sketchy divesIt's not like it's a crimeBut what if you get caught by a scuba diverJust like Nemo and I can't find you?Still I'd never cease my quest for youWhat else would there be for me to do?Sure, there are plenty of fishes in the oceanBut not one of them could ever get a hook in my devotionSo my love for you supports recent scholarly publicationsReporting that fish have a greater capacity for memoryThan was previously believedAnd I will miss you for the rest of my life.
