I wrote this song with my friend Jilly Lukkesen in Robinialand, Belgium, in March 2019 (the day after another of Robinialand's legendary all-night music-jam parties), and released it a year later on 30/03/20.
The video was made by my sister, Ciara, with graphics by me!

Goldfish
by Liam S Rickard & Jilly Lukkesen, 2019, Ghent, Belgium

I wish I was a
goldfish so I could
forget yesterday

I wish I was a
goldfish so I could
swim my troubles away
                
how I wish I was a flower,
so you would look at me for hours
and maybe put me in your hair
How I wish I was a shower, baby,
so I could wash away your sorrows and your cares

I wish I was a
goldfish so I could
forget yesterday

How I wish I was
the rain so I could dance upon your skin
How I wish I was
a masterpiece that comes from deep within
How I wish I was a table,
but not your family dinner,
‘cause people shouting and throwing
soup at each other is not my idea of fun

I wish I was a
goldfish so I could
forget yesterday

I wish I was a
goldfish so I could
swim my troubles away

Ik wou dat ik een
goudvis was zodat ik
alles om me heen vergeten kon

I wish I was a
goldfsh so I could
forge-e-e-e-et
yesterday, yesterday, ooooo yesterday, yesterday!
