My goodness, nobody and I mean nobody would be more proud of this than Mark Vann. Swam back upstream way to soon. I know he's sitting by a quiet stream somewhere picking this song away on "The Stump"! We did it Mark!!!!
Lyrics below if your not familiar...



Original Lyrics (Not in this order, it's Leftover Salmon after all )
Fishy
Oh, fish
Where'd all the fish go?
You must ask the fish.
Do you know anything about the water?
Fishy?
You know what I'm saying?
Where'd all the fish go is what I wanna know
Fishy!
Might just have to ask the fish
Fishy!

Well ask the fish 'cause the fish he knows
Ask the fish why the water won't flow
Too many dams and docks in the rivers you know
The fish can't swim when the water don't flow
Fish fishy fish-eye view
He's a-looking at you
What's a fish gonna do
When rivers don't run through
Fishy asking you
What you gonna do

Ask the fish
'Cause I think he'll know
Used to be a river but it became a green
And I just wonder
what happened to the dream
Too many dams and docks you know
The fish can't swim when the river won't flow

I had a dream about a fish
And I wonder what it means
Dreamt I was a fish trying to get up stream
I wonder about the fish and I wonder what it means
When fish can't get home and I'm having fish dreams

Fish fishy take a fish-eye view
Fish fishy here's looking at you
You gotta question 'em too
Fish are talking to you
What's a fish gonna do
Gotta break on through
Adopt a fish-eye view
Ask the fish

Ask the fish and I think you'll know
Ask the fish why the water won't flow
Banks clogged with barges, dams and docks you know
Fish can't swim where the water don't go
Fish fishy take a fish-eye view
Fish fish is a-lookin' at you
Fish asking you to take a fish-eye view

Fishy
Ask the fish!
