I don't have a spine,
and I always feel fine.
It's hard to feel sad,
but I'm never, ever glad.
I've hoped for a heart,
and for a soul, I will wish.
But I'll always be wishing,
Because I am a fish.
I want to own a home,
I want to be a resident.
I want to be taken seriously,
I want to be president!
For as long as I live,
I'll want to be human.
But I live in the sea,
Where it is much too humid!
How strange it would be,
To need not for gills.
I could breathe with a nose,
And have many other skills!
This is why I want to be a man,
and be able to run, and get a tan!
This is why I want not to be a fish,
And to be a person is my only wish.

Poor fish. It reminds me of Ariel the mermaid. but at least she was partly human. A fish has no parts like that...sad.
