Paroles: Mountain Goats, The. Infidelity.

there was a twinkle in my eye

as we watched the fish swim by

we saw the water going in and out

and you knew what i was thinking about



we watched the water

we looked right through it

and i let my hand rest a minute on your stomach

like there was nothing to it



three of them hiding behind a rock

and i got too nervous to talk

with your wondrous form all stretched out

right next to me as the fish swam about



we watched the water

we looked right through it

and i let my hand rest a minute on your stomach

like there was nothing to it



the room heated up the windows were closed

we heard the humming of the air hose

that ran into the tank and the fish swam in place

and i fixed my eyes on your beautiful face



we watched the water

we looked right through it

and i let my hand rest a minute on your stomach

like there was nothing to it
