Otha Fish Lyrics

[Chorus: SlimKid3]
In the sea, in the sea, that is
In the sea, in the sea, that is
You know there's other fish, in the sea, that is
In the sea, in the sea, that is
You know there's other fish, in the sea, that is
In the sea, in the sea, that is
You know there's other fish, in the sea, that is
You know there's other fish in the sea

[Verse 2: SlimKid3]
I reminisce, try to clear up all the myths
For an imaginary kiss with you again
Not even friends, though I wish that I could mend
Like a tailor and be Olive Oyl's number one sailor
I ams what I am, still I falls like an anvil
She's heavy on the mind, sometimes it's more than I can handle

But men aren't supposed to tumble into the den
Be macho
, but a honcho like Pancho will give in
Family oriented, but not Oriental
A dame is supposed to claim you even if you drive a Pinto
A hero is a sandwich and a Manwich is a meal
A marriage is a paper; are they fakin' or for real?
What's the deal, dabbers? Will you go tumbling after
Your man and take a stand or will you help him roll faster?

The reason why I ask you is because I'm sick of this
Bitch licking drip drip from a nigga's benefits
He doesn't even suit you and he's surely not your size
I'm surprised that you slept on a heart that's worldwide
And when you open up your eyes, babe mermaid, I really wish
That you don't bruise a limb as I swim with other fish in the sea
In the sea, that is
[Chorus: SlimKid3]
In the sea, in the sea that is
You know there's other fish, in the sea, that is
In the sea, in the sea that is
You know there's other fish, in the sea, that is
In the sea, in the sea that is
You know there's other fish, in the sea, that is
You know there's other fish in the sea

[Verse 3: SlimKid3]
Now, if there ain't no mountain high enough
Why ain't you climbing up?
My hand has been extended ever since the day I lent it to ya
I thought I knew ya, but I didn't even know ya
Bro, you're stupid 'cause you thought you captured Cupid
And you found that love ain't two bits of shit
So I resign and quit
It ain't even about the hips or the lips or the tits or
Even the pussy whip,
Elizabeth, this is it
Because I slipped and I tripped into a shoe that didn't fit
And now the next man is stealing my heart away
I'd charge him like a bull, but his pull never fades me
The kid is going crazy, they stepping with my lady
They're working on a baby, I'm pushing up the daisies

But hey diddle diddle, I won't play second fiddle
To no man and stand firm on this
And seal up on the bliss with a big juicy kiss
Just call me Big Gibraltar, miss
No, I won't diss, I'm just like off to other fish in the sea
[Outro]
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other fish that's in the sea (You know there's other, you know that there's other)
In the sea, baby
You know there's other, you know that there's other
In the sea, baby
You know there's other, you know that there's other
In the sea, baby
You know there's other, you know that there's other
In the sea, baby
In the sea, baby
In the sea, baby
In the sea, baby

“Otha Fish” is the excelling SlimKid 3 solo cut on the Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde album. It is the only song off the album that is not produced by J-Swift, but instead by John “L.A. Jay” Barnes and Tre “SlimKid 3” Hardson. The song challenges the concepts of one-sided love; loving someone but not being loved back, a concept quite similar to that of the Pharcyde hit “Passin' Me By”.

Multiple cover arts have been created for the vinyl pressing of the song, including the following:
