Story Behind the Song
Frank Fish and his pet polecat, Archie, spent
many days and nights on Oxford's Port Meadow
in the summer of '85 without food, drink or D.C. Bizarro comics. During this time, according to FF's frenzied, crayon-scribbled diary entries, the earth underwent
violent changes. Great clouds of soup stretched against the sky over Wolvercote, imprisoned there by gravity. Apparently, as the soup vapour thickened, so did Frank's waistline despite the absence of food. Constant tuneless whistling was his only lifeline during this stressful time in FF's life. Fellow Fin, Mick Sticklecack wrote 'The Living World of Sea Creatures makes me want to Whistle' as a tribute to Frank, Archie, and whistlers everywhere.
Lyrics
Now cows have hooves and dogs have paws
and snooker champions have snooker balls
and fish have fins that how they swim
and if you didn't know that you must be dim
In a blue lagoon I see the water move
Is it a paw could it be a hoof?
No it's a fin zipping thru' the sea
and it has a strange effect on me
Oh! The Living World of Sea Creatures
Makes Me want to whistle...
Yes cows have calves and dogs have pups
and snooker champions win snooker cups
and fish lay eggs in the ocean
and whistling is a lot of fun
So whistle...
