A cover of Tony Goldmark's immortal children's song "I Know You're A Fish," updated with a choral goth ska punk metal whatever kinda whatsit to make it sound like, well, Worm Quartet. The Great Luke Ski appears as the Judge.

This is a song by Tony Goldmark which appears on his out-of-print first album, a children's record called "You Bug Me" which he recorded when he was 13. Dave Barry had the following to say about it in the liner notes: "Tony wrote my favorite song on the album, 'I Know You're a Fish,' which to my knowledge is the only work by any songwriter in history -- and I include Cole Porter in that statement -- to tackle the sensitive issue of flushing a fish down a toilet."

I recorded this version specifically in order to perform it live at PenguiCon (with Luke Ski assisting on backing vocals and kazoo) and thus break Tony. It succeeded admirably, amused the living crap out of the few people in the audience, and made Tony swear at me a lot, but ultimately he realized that it was meant as a tribute sorta thing, and that it rocks the cat's butt.

If you want to hear the original version, the CD is still available from Amazon...and it has sound samples from all the songs.
