Lyrics

Short fish: I had a dream to be ten feet tall
But instead, I turned out to be rather small
The shame of it all was almost unbearable
Thanks for reminding me
Queen fish: I had a dream to be queen of a land
But nothing came of my noble plan
Because for me, a crown is unwearable
Thanks for reminding me
Singing fish: I had a dream that I could be the greatest soprano in all the sea...
Thanks for reminding me
Bikini Bottomites: I was going to climb a mountain, but I'm afraid of heights
I was going to be a dancer, but I don't look good in tights
Writing a great novel takes too much time
Poet fish: I dared to be a poet, but you have to be able to think of words that sound like other words and have a really good... oh, what's that called when you know a lot of words?
Bikini Bottomites: Vocabulary!
Poet fish: Oh yeah, anyway... I was really bad at it
Thanks for reminding me
Bikini Bottomites: Thanks for reminding me
Thanks for reminding me, too
We wouldn't be remembering our big disappointments if it weren't for you
SpongeBob: I'm sorry for your pain
It really is a shame
It's like my kite breaking
No one is to blame
Nerd fish: Hey, that's a really good idea! It would be a lot easier to deal with all these negative feelings if we had someone to blame.
Bikini Bottomites: Yeah!
Who do you blame when your dreams have died?
And your bubble's burst?
And you've swallowed your pride?
Who do you blame when your dream is a dud?
When your hopes take a nosedive into the mud?
Singing fish: Who do you blame when your speaking voice is really quite enjoyable...
But your singing voice is horrible?
Bikini Bottomites: Who do you blame?
Who? I don't know!
Loud fish: Hey, I've got something to say! I think we should blame him!
Bikini Bottomites: Yeah!
We blame you, you, you, you! We blame you!
We blame you, you, you, you! We blame you!
Fisherman fish: I was going to be a fisherman 'till I found out I'm a fish
Buoy fish: I was going to be a buoy but I didn't get my wish
Plankton: I wanted to get that formula to make a Krabby Patty
Old fish: I wanted to go and take a trip to good ol' Cincinnati
SpongeBob: What's Cincinnati?
Old fish: Uh, I don't know, I just like the way it sounds! (laughs)
Bikini Bottomites: We blame you, you, you, you! We blame you!
We blame you, you, you, you!
We blame you!
