about

Cave Fish. The song by They Might Be Giants that no fan* has ever heard. The song in the depths of Their discography, the forbidden song only heard by a chosen few and out of the rest of our collective grasp.

But! A mighty Genius has retained an artifact of the elusive Cave Fish, a fossilized record of its existence: the lyrics.
genius.com/They-might-be-giants-cave-fish-lyrics

Through this discovery, it was now possible to attempt to recreate what this elusive and mysterious song possibly sounded like at the time that it walked this earth. Swam. This earth. Swam this earth.

This collection of cave fish you see and hear before you is the product of members of the Facebook Group entitled They Might Be Shitposting who have never heard the They Might Be Giants song entitled Cave Fish even once in their lives, but have read the lyrics and decided it was up to them (not Them) to put them (Them) to music that they (not They) have devised themselves (not Themselves) with the utmost respect to how They (They) may have actualized this song in our reality.
