The Salmon Dance

Hello, boys and girls, my name is Fat Lip

And this is my friend, Sammy the Salmon

Today we're gonna teach you some

Fun facts about salmon and a brand new dance

Let me introduce to you a brand new dance

I know you're gonna love it if you give it one chance

It's not complicated, it's not too hard

You don't even have to be a hip hop star

See, anyone can do it, all you need is style

Listen up, people gang, I'ma show you how

Your hands to the side as silly as it seems

Shake your body like a salmon floating upstream

(I float upstream)

You know how we do it

You know how we do it again

All my peeps spend part of their life

In fresh water and part of their life in salt water

Wow, very interesting

They change round a couple of days after spawning then we die

When I first did the salmon all the people just laughed

They looked around and stood like I was on crack

I heard somebody say out loud

"What the fuck is that?

This nigga's dancing like a fish, while he's doing the snap"

But the more I kept doing it, the more they were feeling it

And then I heard some bitches say, "Yo, that nigga's killing it"

By the end of the night, everyone was on my team

And the whole club was dancing like a salmon floating upstream

(I float upstream)

You know how we do it

You know how we do it again

Most of our friends find their home waters by sense of smell

Which is even more keen than that of a dog or a bear

Wow, my family also rely on ocean currents, tides

The gravitational pull of the moon

(I float upstream again)

The moon? Fish pay attention to the moon?

Wow, who knew?

Did you know

What?

That I could go to Japan and back?

You're kidding me? Amazing, Geez

Polluted water can kill both baby salmon

That are developing and the adult salmon

That are on their way to spawn

Wow, what a shame, what a shame

Hey, kids, hey give it up for Sammy the Salmon

And his amazing salmon dance

What ya say? Alright, who's hungry?
