Flippy & Max
music and lyrics by Ben Hassenger and Pat Malloy

Flippy & Max live in a little bowl
Round and round and round they go
Everyday is like the one before
No new places to explore
Is there more to life than this
Or is this just the way it is
Is there something else out there
Or are they just a lonely pair

Every night when they fall asleep
A dream into their heads does creep
They swim in the oceans feeling free
Traveling the world on the seven seas
The light comes on and they awake
Another breakfast of goldfish flakes
Just another boring day
They know they’ve go to get away

They want to fly like the birds in the sky
They want to run like the wind
They want to live in the world outside the glass
Flippy & Max

Night falls again they close their eyes
And wake up to the blue sea and skies
Everything is fresh and new
All their dreams have just come true
Now they can do whatever they wish
Just like all of the other fish
Run with the smelt, troll with the trout
Flirt with the perch and flounder about

They want to fly like the birds in the sky
They want to run like the wind
They want to live in the world outside the glass
Flippy & Max
