Lyrics Stan Ridgway

Stan Ridgway

Floundering

Tonight I'm looking for someone to tell my troubles to

Some fish will swim but some fish just get caught

I'm walkin' by a market and I remember me and you

Feelin' like an old filet that no one bought

Nobody knows, nobody sees

I'm caught downstream, and I'm floundering

Walkin' by the old canal, I sit down along the shore

I throw one lonely duck my last french fry

I had a dream of drowning¨c¨ci heard the underwater roar

So pack me up in ice, and take me home to fry

Nobody knows, nobody sees

I'm caught downstream, and I'm floundering

Nobody knows, nobody sees

I'm caught downstream, and I'm floundering

And late at night, I hear the wind just yawn

Some fish will swim, some fish will spawn

Nobody knows, nobody sees

I'm caught downstream, and I'm floundering

Nobody knows, nobody sees

I'm caught downstream, and I'm floundering
