I don´t wake up crying
So I guess I must be fine
And I´m not violent
Which means I´m on the right side of the line
Always wearing clothes on
When I´m walking down the street
But all these good things
They require that you´re close to me

Like the tears in the eye 
Of the fish in the pond
I´m like the tears in the eye
Of the fish when you´re gone
Yes Sir baby

Once I felt like something
That you´d flush right down the drain
Lots of ugly feelings
That were similar to pain
Now the door to where they keep
The laughter´s open wide
Then again I very much
Do need you by my side

Like the tears in the eye
Of the fish in the pond
I´m like the tears in the eye
Of the fish when you´re gone
Like the tears in the eye
Of the fish in the pond
I´m like the tears in the eye
Of the fish when you´re gone
Yes Sir baby
