lirik lagu fishboy - former performance artist

at 21
i was a young performance artist and
around i’d run with art school dudes
and we would
spend our days perfecting public pieces
we would
spend our nights
acting rude

we’d throw food fights
make a mess
all while dressed up as chefs
a single week we tried our best
to only speak in adjectives
intentions often misunderstood
we did it ’cause we knew that we could

performance 209
would be our grande finale
on the right foul line
of a baseball game
our most ambitious piece
it took days of preparation
that october eve
we created the wave

a lost footnote in history
a staple of the mlb
created by my friends and me
we were only 23
but the wave it long outlasted us
now we don’t talk all that much
we all grew up and all lost touch
never speak a mention of
the credit
but forget it we’re good
we did it cause we knew that we could

now i’m a 53
small business owner
my kids don’t believe me
because i’ve got no proof
the oldest, seventeen
wants to be a light technician
takes more pictures weekly
than i have of my youth

and i often think about the days
of interrupting baseball games
and wonder if i’d be the same
if i’d doc-mented everything
like kids who come into the store
taking photos when they’re bored
i pick myself up off the floor
acknowledge i created for
feeling of creating what’s good
i did it cause i knew that i could
