lyrics

Jack Demsy is a fish

Pervasive is a word.
Jack Demsy is a fish
These are words that just popped into my head.

Pervasive as a fish.
Jack Demsy is a word.
These things suddenly popped into my head.

People like a song that is all nice and uppity.
Doesn’t matter if you can learn from it.
Everybody singing now and living happily.
We like the verse so much let’s go back to it.

Pervasive is a word.
Jack Demsy is a fish
These are words that just popped into my head.

Pervasive as a fish.
Jack Demsy is a word.
These things suddenly popped into my head.

People like a song that is all nice and uppity.
Doesn’t matter if you can learn from it.
Given all the things in life we do not understand,
Let’s just keep this song running really simple.

Pervasive is a word.
Jack Demsy is a fish
These are words that just popped into my head.

Pervasive as a fish.
Jack Demsy is a word.
These things suddenly popped into my head.

People like a song that is all nice and uppity.
Doesn’t matter if you can learn from it.
Everybody singing now and living happily.
We like the verse so much let’s go back to it.
No! No!
I sing this song in honor of a colonoscopie.
I think the word should be colonascapoop.
The end is coming here I’m glad that you all sang with me.
Don’t forget to vote in the next election.

about

John's mother can attest to him dancing to the hum of the vacuum cleaner while he was still in cloth diapers. Since these early days JS10 has written over 200 songs, grown out of diapers, and released more than 6 full-length albums (& 1 unreleased) ... more
