Goldfish Bowl
What will it take for them to leave me alone
Don't they know I'm just a guy who sings songs
I'm not promoting no hit record
And I don't have no TV show
i ain't have no reason to live in a goldfish bowl
I'm just doing my gigs
And I'm on and off the road
Everything I say is not meant to be taken like set in stone
Just because they call me a celebrity
Baby hat does not make it true, doesn't mean it's true
'Cause I don't believe in any myths people
So why should you?
I'm singin' Jazz, Blues & Funk
some Rock & Roll
Folk beats with a beat
a bit of Soul
I don't have no hit record
I don't have no TV show
and I don't have a reason to live in a goldfish bowl (goldfish bowl)
Well there's parasites and psychic vampires
preying on the public at large
casting their dark shadow onto everyone else
Well the media barons
prey on a lower key
And they prey on everybody
prey on you and me
I'm singing Jazz Blues & Funk
some Rock & Roll
Folk music with a beat in it
a bit of Soul
I don't have no hit record
I don't have no TV show
So I ain't got no reason to live in a goldfish bowl
No reason, no reason
Well I don't have no reason to live in a goldfish bowl
Good evening friends...
Don't they know I'm just a guy who sings songs
I'm not promoting no hit record
And I don't have no TV show
i ain't have no reason to live in a goldfish bowl
I'm just doing my gigs
And I'm on and off the road
Everything I say is not meant to be taken like set in stone
Just because they call me a celebrity
Baby hat does not make it true, doesn't mean it's true
'Cause I don't believe in any myths people
So why should you?
I'm singin' Jazz, Blues & Funk
some Rock & Roll
Folk beats with a beat
a bit of Soul
I don't have no hit record
I don't have no TV show
and I don't have a reason to live in a goldfish bowl (goldfish bowl)
Well there's parasites and psychic vampires
preying on the public at large
casting their dark shadow onto everyone else
Well the media barons
prey on a lower key
And they prey on everybody
prey on you and me
I'm singing Jazz Blues & Funk

Folk music with a beat in it
a bit of Soul
I don't have no hit record
I don't have no TV show
So I ain't got no reason to live in a goldfish bowl
No reason, no reason
Well I don't have no reason to live in a goldfish bowl
Good evening friends...
