(written bởi ITF - also known as TheShadowWarrior - in memory of all the little goldfish in the world)


Here I swim, round and round
Same old thing, round and round
From morning's dawn to evening's light
I swim in circles ngày and night
My keeper's coming. Something new?
No, it's not. Just the same tasteless food.
Những người bạn all gone and my water's stale,
I wanted a paradise, instead I got a jail.
What did I do? What have I done?
This bowl on the counter top, it ain't no fun.

Here I stay, round and round
In constant misery, round and round
People came to take a look
Like I was just a picture from a book,
No one considered that I have a life
Which should be full of joy, not pain and strife.
I would be better off to be a dog hoặc be a cat
Who would never be confined to a bowl and left like that.
Does anyone care? Will anyone set me free?
I just want to live in a pound with other fishes like me.

My time is ticking, round and round
The days are passing, round and round
Their interest is gone, but I am still here
I am small, frail and weak, my death is near
I want to leave, to say goodbye
I know that in Heaven, God will give me a wonderful life.
As I struggle to breath, I float to the hàng đầu, đầu trang
Perhaps today, my worn-out tim, trái tim will stop
Although I was fed, my keepers did not truly care for me
They say they tình yêu animals, but they never could see.
No one came to set me free
It's too late, now. I know I will die in this misery
One last swim, round and round
No thêm dreams, round and round
One last wish, round and round
Please don't ever keep any cá like this.
One last breath, round and round
I am a goldfish, here and now
I sink to the bottom... round and round
