Pisces Fish

Rowers gliding on the river

Canadian geese crap along the bank

Back wheel of my bike begins to quiver

The chain is wrapped around the crank



Old ladies, who must be doggie training

Walking, throwing balls, chasing all the sheep

While the farmer stands around,

and he's complaining

His mad cows are being put to sleep

and I'm a Pisces fish and the rivers runs

through my soul



Smoke signals from the brewery

Like someone in there found the latest Pope

In a vat of beer that keeps pumping

out with fury

While the churchbell ringer's tangled

in his rope



There's a temple on an island

I think of all the Gods and what they feel

You can only find them in the deepest silence

I got to get off of this big wheel



And I'm a Pisces fish and the river runs

through my soul

I'm a Pisces fish and the river runs

through my soul



And I'll be swimming until I can find

those waters

That one unbounded ocean of bliss

That's flowing through your parents,

sons and daughters

But still an easy thing for us to miss



Blades go skimming through the water

I hear the coxon shouting his

instructions about

With this crew oh it could be a tall order

Have we time to sort all of these things out?



Some times my life it seems like fiction

Some of the days it's really quite serene

I'm a living proof of all life's contradictions

One half's going where the other

half's just been

And I'm a Pisces fish and the river runs

through my soul
