(Mark Stuart, Stacey Earle)

I'm here entertaining
No room for complaining
In a fishbowl, swimming in a circle

I watch them stop and stare
I feel I'm getting nowhere
In a fishbowl, swimming in a circle

Looking through my glass house
Watch them all play cat and mouse
Skipping rocks in my fishing hole

Stones thrown, shattered glass
Fish out of water it wont last
I need a change of water in my fishbowl

I need a little room to grow
Its the same old thing and it's getting old
In a fishbowl, swimming in a circle

I want a clear, blue stream
Trickle down a river to my sea of dreams
But, in a fishbowl, I'm swimming in a circle
