Tame the lionfish
Tame the lionfish

So like, I know the very idea of a lionfish is funny
And it's even funnier to think of them
As being this serious threat that could take over the world
'Cause what are they? Just catfish but bigger?
Well, no, but that's another topic
Lionfish are kind of a legitimate threat to the ecosystem, believe it or not
And there's only one solution that I can find to fighting them off
We must devour them

No need to be a barbarian
Just become pescatarian
If conservation is what you wish
Save a reef, eat a lionfish

They're comin' for your coastal town
To multiply like Watership Down
They pillage and they plunder reef
They're causin' lot of no-good grief
It's underwater under fire
Venom from barbs like wire
It's Star Trek but a sea scene
Like TOS S2:E15

Tame the lionfish
Tame the lionfish

It's our fault; we let 'em loose
And now it's endless duck duck goose
With predators in short supply
They'll say hello but never goodbye
We gotta take the waters back
And lionfish are healthy snacks
So take 'em down and cook 'em up
It's time to eat the eaters, yup

No need to be a barbarian
Just become pescatarian
If conservation is what you wish
Save a reef, eat a lionfish
No need to be a barbarian
Just become pescatarian
If conservation is what you wish
Save a reef, eat a lionfish

Me no like no lionfish
Everybody quiet - shhh

Caught 'em in my net - swish
They're worse than all my exes
I need a show on Netflix
Caught 'em down in Texas
Had 'em all for breakfast
No escape, no Brexit
Hope you get this message
They take the reef and wreck it

No need to be a barbarian
Just become pescatarian
If conservation is what you wish
Save a reef, eat a lionfish
No need to be a barbarian
Just become pescatarian
If conservation is what you wish
Save a reef, eat a lionfish
