Ok, so the whole song is full of underwater puns and replacing some words with names of fish, and so on. But the very first line
"It was April the 41st, being a quadruple leap year "
I don’t get. How does that relate to being under water or living in the ocean?
Lyrics
I don’t believe it is meant to relate to water, at all. It’s just the first of the series of absurdities that is the song.
Yeah, I talked to my wife about it, and that’s pretty much her opinion too. I guess that sounds right, but I just thought that since every other joke was an ocean/fish pun or joke, that that one would be too, but I guess it’s not.
Yeah, that’s what I get out it, too. It’s just a quick set up for the sillyness to follow. Classic Dr Demento humor. I have it on a DrD collection CD.
They’re coming to take me away, ha ha
