Floundering Lyrics - Stan Ridgway

Tonight I'm looking for someone to tell my troubles to 

Some fish will swim but some fish just get caught 

I'm walkin' by a market and I remember me and you 

Feelin' like an old filet that no one bought 

Chorus: 

Nobody knows, nobody sees 

I'm caught downstream, and I'm floundering 

Walkin' by the old canal, I sit down along the shore 

I throw one lonely duck my last french fry 

I had a dream of drowningcci heard the underwater roar 

So pack me up in ice, and take me home to fry 

Chorus repeat x2 

And late at night, I hear the wind just yawn 

Some fish will swim, some fish will spawn 

Chorus repeat x2
