Song lyrics
Look at this big eyed fish swimming in the sea, oh
How it dreams to be a bird
Swooping, diving through the breeze
So one day, caught a big old wave
Up onto the beach
Now it's dead, you see
Beneath the sea is where a fish should be

But, oh God, under the weight of life 
Things seem brighter on the other side 

You see, this crazy man decided not to breathe
He turned red and blue, purple
Colorful indeed
No matter how his friends begged and pleaded
The man would not concede
And nows he's dead you see
The silly man should know you got to breathe

But, oh God, under the weight of life 
Things seem brighter on the other side 
Oh God, but under the weight of life
Things seem so much better on the other side 
No way, no way, no way out of here

See the little monkey, sittin' up in his monkey tree
One day decided to climb down and run off to the city
But look at him now, lost and tired
Living in the street
As good as dead you see
What a monkey does, stay up your tree

But, oh God, under the weight of life 
Things seem brighter on the other side 
Oh God, under the weight of life 
Things seem so much better on the other side

No way, no way 
No way, no way
No way out of here 

But, oh god
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side 

But, oh god
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side 

But, oh god
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side

No way, no way 
No way out of here

I love this song- "But, oh God, under the weight of life; Things seem brighter on the other side." However, the Busted Stuff version isn't my favorite. I was under the impression that my favorite version was part of The Lillywhite Sessions the Lillywhite versions of some of the songs are a little more depressing but better in my opinion. Check it out if you can find it. Great song.
