You’ve gotta wiggle like a fish
Slither like a snake
Turn yourself around
Do what it takes
Wiggle like a fish
Sometimes you’re told to just sit still and keep your hand
to yourself.
Like when you’re riding in the back of the van and mom’s
talking on the cell.
But that can only last so long before you have to move.
Just say, “Excuse me mom, I need some room to get in my groove.”
Now when you’re in school that learning is so fun
But you have to sit still a while, you can’t get up and run
Sit still for family pictures, for dinner and for church.
But when you’re through, it’s OK to act like a perch.
(A fish that is)
