Divine Comedy - A Seafood Song Lyrics

"Who'll have a fishy On a little dishy? Who will have a fishy When the boat comes..." And then he says, "With our glasses both raised in a toast Let's sing for those in peril on the sea Who cater ceaselessly To thy every wish With every fish, As fresh as fish can be! Y'see, I do like my oysters, My king prawns and caviar - No matter how far away they are, I'll be there!" And then she says, "Now with our glasses both raised in this toast, Let's sing for those in peril on the sea Who labour tirelessly In their tiny boats Off John O' Groats, Their socks soaked for me! Y'see, I do like my lobster, My hake, skate and rainbow trout - And if there's a fishy smell about, I'll be there!" And then we'll sing for those in peril on the sea Don't be frightened, don't be scared - Chop off their heads and little legs, Then peel away the shell And open up your senses to the smell, The sound and colour, Touch and taste Of crabs, cod, clams and kippers Scampi, squid, sole, shark and scallop Winkles, whelks, whale and whiting Seaweed, swordfish, sardines and sea urchin Haddock, halibut, herrings and eel Cockles, mussels, mackerel, geel Pilchard, plankton, St Peter's fish and plaice Octopussy jellyfishy And dolphin's an aquired taste... "Who'll have a fishy On a little dishy? I will have a fishy When the boat comes in..." Divine Comedy Lyrics A Seafood Song Lyrics
