Fishbowl Man Lyrics - King's X

Into the fishbowl 

I make my stand 

Among the red fish 

That shake my hand 

The left of never 

The right of me 

The yellow water 

Eternity 

I'm in a fishbowl 

I'm a fishbowl man 

Up come the red fish 

They speak to me 

They tell me secrets 

That shouldn't be 

Mystical water 

Bubble of birth 

I pop the question 

To Mother Earth 

Jerry Spoken Word: (bridge) 

external internal constant longings 

inside out flacid dreams 

silver wings 

memory fading 

the future snarls 

she brings me a plate of black eyed sneers 

waves crashing 

forest burns 

forced to impregnate itself to be freed 

crack the whip 

the horse has no conscience 

whether to live or merely receed 

pedastal landscapes manical reverence 

naked she lies 

clothed she pretends 

my god I can't stand it 

the systems the basics 

humanity swearing because it's been born 

non speaking monarch from fairy tale mishap 

chartered a boat to visit my pain 

we talked for hours then it all became clear 

simply because I'm a Fishbowl man
