Us Fish Must Swim Together Lyrics - Subhumans

Okay let's start at the beginning 

When fishes roamed the sea 

They swam around before anything else 

In ten million years B.C. 

Then one day they decided 

To evolve into vertebrates 

And a few came out of the water 

And got drunk to celebrate 

Soon, well when I say, "Soon", I mean 

A couple million years 

They evolved into various quadrupeds 

With legs and things and ears 

And about a trillion aeon's later 

They went all civilized 

And built lots of bombs and council flats 

That reached into the skies 

The moral of this tale, you see 

We are descended from the fish 

And if we progress much further 

We'll put our lives at risk 

We're starting to destroy ourselves 

With pollution, war, and greed 

When food and sex and water 

Is all we really need 

When sink or swim is the choice you get 

You cannot swim forever 

You need support to keep you alive 

Us fish must swim together
