We've Got Company

From front to back I was raised
One of six in a pack
And I howl at the moon
I grew up fast, mostly alone
Never catching the scent, the scent of home
But I was trapped and it was time to shake loose
Get out on my own and turn up the juice
Now I'm in hot water, I'm in too deep
And from underwater things start to creep
And they circle in to begin to make a meal out of me
Blood in the water, that's danger's fee
And I lost my eye to the one I didn't see

To the one I didn't see
To the one I didn't see
To the one I didn't see
To the one I didn't see

To wish upon a fish seems a fairy-tale myth
But I'm not prejudiced, I never rule anything out
And thats how I met my man Oscar the Grout
He taught me the ways of the underwhy
Some of which was hard to believe
He taught me the secret of the underwater basket-weave

It's so deceiving - underwater basket weaving
Hard to believe - the underwater basket weave

To avoid becoming the commericalized rage
I turned the next corner and struck the next phase
Slide into the shadows, slip out of view
It's a beautiful thing to have nothing to do

And just like that, I'm the individualzible ghost
Individual, invisible, individualzible ghost
Individual, invisible, individualzible ghost

Time to take it on, on home
Just can't leave this world alone
Time to take it on, on home
Just can't leave this world alone
