Clap Clap Clap Little Fish Clap Your Hands!

[Horace:]
A little fish in a big pond has plenty of room to swim But swimming around are big fish all ready to pounce on him
Back to his little pond he starts to roam The little fish spreads his fins and begins to swim back home That's me, a little fish in a big pond, all wrong That's me, a little fish where a little fish don't belong A little man in a big town gets butterflies in his dome I'm ready to spread my fin and begin to swim back home To the little pond where a little fish and a little man belong

[Maizie:]
A little fish in a big pond has gotta have lots of heart For swimming around are big fish, but if he's the least bit smart Back to his little pond he doesn't go The little fish spreads his fins and begins to grow, grow, grow That's you, a little fish in a big pond, all right Me too, a little fish, but we gotta stand up and fight A little man in a big town don't have to get out and roam Stop taking it on the chin and begin to feel at home In the bigger pond where the bigger fish and the bigger men belong "Miss Liberty" Irving Berlin musical 1949
