Subject: ADD Version: Fish Heads (Barnes & Barnes)
But there's another version, with completely different verses, and I don't know where it comes from. There's a recording in fishy voices by "Stingray Music (Karaoke)" on an album titled Specialty Vol 8, and it's also on this YouTube video:

Was this version also written by Barnes & Barnes, or what?


FISH HEADS
(Barnes & Barnes)

Fish heads, fish heads, roly poly fish heads
Fish heads, fish heads, eat them up - yum!

(in G - up 4) C G C G / C G D G

In the morning laughing happy fish heads
In the evening floating in the soup

Ask a fish head anything you want to
They won't answer, they can't talk

I took a fish head out to see a movie
Didn't have to pay to get it in

They can't play baseball, they don't wear sweaters
They're not good dancers, they don't play drums

Roly poly fish heads are never seen drinking cappuccino
At Italian restaurants with oriental women - yeah!



I like both versions, but where is this one from?
