The Fish Don't Mind

To all of you who live in the important areas
You affluent folks that keep us all in line
I'm just here to let you know it's alright
Keep up the good work
The fish don't mind
So please feel free to continue
Those of you who water your lawns in the rain
Keep it up
Your lawn is important
The fish understand that
Those of you who hose down your driveways when it gets too hot
The fish understand
They know that hot asphalt is bad for your car tires
So feel free to continue
The fish don't mind
Flush your bidets
Fill your swimming pools
Make sure that cute little cement cherub
Has a steady supply to pee playfully into your garden
The fish want you to be happy
The less water they have the better in fact
They enjoy the challenge
The fishes know they've had an easy time of it until recently
Having the freedom to evolve and grow and move as they please
For so many years
Many of them regret having become so complacent
And thank you for helping them with your new challenges
So please, shrink up the oceans
Give those fishes something to do
The fish know they've been freeloaders all these years
They're quite eager to sprout arms and legs
Crawl out of the water
Join the work force
And get a pool of their own one day
They want to chip in
So keep up the good work folks
The fish don't mind
