Fish p***
Equal Strain on All Parts
Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band
Fish p***
Fish p***
On his brain
From down in Marathon
Up to the coast of Maine
Gil’s got a weird, incurable disorder
He can’t go a day without getting on the water
Fish p***, Fish p***
That’s the diagnosis
His childhood dream was
to be a great magician
Disappear into thin air
And become an apparition
He lives by the shore
But he comes from the sea
Goddess of the deep, Lady Aphrodite
Don’t let him swim with the fishes
Like Luca Brasi
Now Coral loves her Gil
Always greets him with her kisses
But he’s gone so much
She’s understandably suspicious
Before too long she’s a woman on a mission
She wants to know
Is he really gone fishin’
Fish p***, Fish p***
Early psychosis
Spoonin for snapper
Wanna hook a wahoo
Watch out for the bull sharks circling you
Keep an eye out for the blue fins
hanging with the whales
And watch out for the men telling big fish tales
(Fish p***, Fish p***)
Coral has to be sure so she tracked him
To his hideaway spot
With a cooler full of LandSharks
She slipped into something real hot
She breathed a sigh of relief
There were no camera or chicks
No teeny bikinis
No real problems to fix
Splish splash, mad dash
Gil’s girl’s gone to save the day
Coral climbed onboard
Gill was pantin’ like an Irish setter
As she proceeded with her master plan
To make them both feel better
Things got exciting and the fish started biting
And poles were bending
Everybody loves a happy ending
(Fish p***, Fish p*** has a happy ending)
Fish p***, Fish p***
It was a remedy
(Fish p***, Fish p***)
Everybody’s goin out to sea
Catch something for me!
(Fish p***, Fish p*** has a happy ending)
(Fish p***, Fish p***)
(Fish p***, Fish p*** has a happy ending)

Re: Fish p*** lyrics
Leave it to Jimmy (or maybe Carl Hiaasen?) to rhyme Aphrodite and Luca Brasi!
We literally laughed out loud at that part of the song!!

Re: Fish p*** lyrics
I love the writing on this one but it’s not one of my faves from the album.
