The Oyster And The Flying Fish

An oyster was a'travelling
Along the ocean road;
He'd been some time preparing
And now he'd left the fold

He was sick of being oysterized
And he wanted to explode, to explode
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
La la la la la la la la

He saw a pretty flying fish
And said if I could have one wish
I'd change into a flying fish
And then I would be happy, yes I would
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
La la la la la la la la

The flying fish came down to see
Just who had made this plea;
And seeing the poor oyster
Said this cannot be
An oyster has to stay inside
And a flying fish must flee, all the time
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
La la la la la la la la

As the oyster turned to go away
The flying fish was heard to say
"If I could find a place to stay
I know I would be happy, yes I would. "
Ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la
La la la la la la la la
