The Indoorfins - Tiktaalik (Your Inner Fish)



The Indoorfins es un grupo musical de Ohio (Estados Unidos) que le dedicaron allá por el 2008 este bonito tema al Tiktaalik, un pez sarcopterigio del Devónico superior que fue elegido ese mismo año como protagonista del Penn Reading Project. Aquí está la web que le hicieron. Bajo el nombre de "Your Inner Fish". Ahí abajo dejo la letra de la canción, para que hagáis karaokes:

From the water to the land I
Learn to swim and learn to stand I'm
Found here by the hands of Neil Shubin
Carry me home
To find the Inner fish unknown

Here on the cusp
Between fish and tetrapod
Lie the skeletal remains
In permafrost. Amphibiously name them
Tiktaalik

Carry me 3,000 miles in a plaster jacket
all the way from Ellesmere Island
In the back seat of a rocket
Fly me 'round the world to find my inner fish

Coming up to take a breath and
Have to use my rubber neck 'cause
I see some sheilas on the bank
And I'm built for looking up
Crawl on all fours, and do some push ups on the shore

375 million years or more
An ancient salamander caged inside a cliff
No longer to meander
Tiktaalik

Carry me 3,000 miles in a jacket of plaster
All the way from Ellesmere Island
Cargo on the helicopter
Fly me 'round the world to find my inner fish

Evolution, revolution, Darwinism, skepticism.
Bulging eyes and fleshy pecs,
Dotted with some colored specks.
One glance, second chance, come upon you... happen-stance.
Tik taa lik!

Carry me 3,000 miles in a plaster jacket
All the way from Ellesmere Island
In the back seat of a rocket
Fly me 'round the world to find my inner fish


Se lo robé a Danny.
