And now you can work your way up the food chain, anchored in plants but a long way to the top if you want a sausage roll.

lyrics

1.
I'm a phytoplankton
A-swimming in the sea,
And soaking all that sunshine up
And CO2 for tea.
At one with Mother Nature,
Her light gives such a punch,
I photosynthesize my food
Each time I feel like lunch.

2.
It's great to be a copepod,
A-swimming in the sea,
And searching phytoplankton out
And having them for tea.
At one with Mother Nature,
She gives me things to munch,
I gobble phytoplankton up
Each time I feel like lunch.

3.
It's great to be crustacean,
A-swimming in the sea,
And rounding zooplankton up
And having them for tea.
At one with Mother Nature,
She gives me things to munch:
I eat those animalcules up
Each time I feel like lunch.

4.
It's great to be a fishie,
A-swimming in the sea,
And slicing little shrimpies up
And having them for tea.
At one with Mother Nature,
She gives me things to munch,
So I can chew a shrimp or two
Each time I feel like lunch.
5.
It's great to be a fur seal,
A-swimming in the sea,
And chasing fishies to and fro
And having them for tea.
At one with Mother Nature,
She gives me things to munch,
So I can chew a fish or two
Each time I feel like lunch.

6.
It's great to be an orca,
A-swimming in the sea,
And playing tennis with the seals
And having them for tea.
At one with Mother Nature,
She gives me things to munch,
So I can chew a seal or two
Each time I feel like lunch.

7.
It's great to be a human,
A-paddling by the sea,
And wondering what it might wash up
That I could have for tea.
At one with Mother Nature,
I can choose to munch
An orca steak or Buttercup
Each time I feel like lunch.

about

Flying Tadpole Adelaide, Australia

The cutting satire, cruel humor, blue angst and general mayhem of the dark alter ego of Tim Fatchen. And the alter ego's alter egos. And occasional or persistent collaborators, including strange shack dwellers from Wallaroo in the most recent release.

Where is Wallaroo? Nothing to see here, move along... ... more
