Now I'm swimming afloat

And she's crawling on land

While he's starting a flight

And she's running as planned

Now they're giving live birth, and my stomach is sick

And its all over earth, and she's touching his,

Scales now

He's losing his tail now

Legs will grow

The title for No Such Thing as a Fish comes from a fact in the QI TV series. In the third episode of the eighth series, also known as "Series H", an episode on the theme of "Hoaxes" reported that after a lifetime studying fish, the biologist Stephen Jay Gould concluded that there was no such thing as a fish. He reasoned that although there are many sea creatures, most of them are not closely related to each other. For example, a salmon is more closely related to a camel than it is to a hagfish.[8] The opening of early episodes of the podcast used to feature a recording of the elves mentioning this fact, which appears in the first paragraph of the Oxford Encyclopedia of Underwater Life.[9][10]
