I'm a little fish
in muddy waters
I am on my guard
I better duck
stay on my side
hungry as I am
we living beings only
try to stay alive
I don't really want
to tangle with'
and it's wise
to realise my size
in here
wise
to realise that mice
I should never eat 'em
sometimes I'd like
to be exempted
from the daily fight
for kindness and for acceptance
sometimes I try
to understand it
I cannot survive
without adjustment
and compromise
and it's wise
to realise my size
in here
wise
to realise that mice
I should never eat 'em
in muddy waters
I am on my guard
I better duck
stay on my side
hungry as I am
we living beings only
try to stay alive
I don't really want
to tangle with'
and it's wise
to realise my size
in here
wise
to realise that mice
I should never eat 'em
