Lyrics

[Verse 1] One there was a little fish With a heart of gold, but not a goldfish Put in the water with divine intent Fillets of soul saved wherever he went His history is a little vague His virgin mom laid a single egg When he was born, his mom was spooked She said, "Bloop bloop, bloop bloop." [Chorus] Jesus Carp, Son of Cod Spiritual icon for schools of scrod Jesus Carp, Son of Cod Gets fish off the hook with a wink or a nod [Verse 2] Cleansing all the fish of sin They came for miles just to touch his fin He spoke so cool, as the fish would stare: "I'm so pure, I can swim in the air." But Pontius Piranha had different plans And sent the fish toward human hands The very next day, while other looked Jesus Carp was placed on a hook [Chorus] [Verse 3] The fisherman reeled up his line And Jesus met his death divine But when he hit the pearly gates Saint Peter told him, "Sorry mate But you can't come in," and the carp asked "Why?" Saint Peter answered with a sigh "Well God knows there's no smellier dish Than a twice-dead, messianic fish." [Chorus]
