Lyrics
The man from Atlantis came to our class today We had to stop talking just to hear what he had to say He looked straight into my eyes and he pointed his webby hand He said, "I come from the fabled underwater land." His utility belt had a light that kept flashing on and off

You should have come to see the man from Atlantis (His skin was slimy and he had no toes) You could have come to see the man from Atlantis (Strangest little fish man I've ever known)

I asked him where Atlantis was today He rolled his eyes and said, "It's underneath the sea." (Duh) I said, "I wanna be a fishman just like you." He said, "Well, this is all you have to do: Get a utility belt with a light that keeps flashing on and off."

You should have been there for the man from Atlantis (His skin was slimy and his gills were green) <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">You could have been there for the man from Atlantis <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">(Strangest little fishman I've ever seen)

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">That's what I wanna be when I grow up <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">A fishman just like him <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">I want webbed fingers and a set of gills <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">And scales instead of skin

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">I'll be the man from Atlantis for you <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">I'll be the man from Atlantis for you

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">He said, "Before I leave you, this is what I ask..." <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">Then he took off his mask and he looked around the class <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">He said, "I'm not from Atlantis, I'm from the USA <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">And NEVER DO DRUGS is the message I have to say." <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">But everyone was looking at the light that kept flashing on and off

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">It's not my job to be the man from Atlantis <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">(I'm a human being) <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">It's not my job to be the man from Atlantis <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">(Strangest little fellow you've ever seen)

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">That's what I wanna be when I grow up <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">A fishman just like him <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">I wanna harvest a seaweed crop <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">And never do drugs <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">Never do drugs <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">Never do drugs <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">Never do drugs

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">I'll be the man from Atlantis for you <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">I'll be the man from Atlantis for you <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Times;font-size:small;line-height:normal;text-align:-webkit-center;">Because I love you
