A song about a cat and a fish. We presume it is a goldfish. We're not sure. It just seems that way. The cat is, well, we don't know what kind of cat. So just accept the fact that this is a song about a cat and a fish. Okay?

Lyrics
Back in second grade
I do declare I was petless.
No dog, no cat,
No canary or rat.
And my heart, she was endlessly restless---
I made my desire clear,
And my Dad and my Mom were sympathetic,
They said, "No child should be
Without one of these."
But they agreed that the pet should be messless---
Needless to say,
I was more excited than many a day,
And I could not sleep that night,
For a pet was soon to be in my life---
Then, the very next afternoon
My Dad came to me and did say,
"I brought you a cat,
Named 'Crackers', at that,
And he comes from the A.S.P.C.A."
Well, Crackers and I hit it off,
Then my Mom came to visit my room.
And, lo and behold,
She held a fish in a bowl,
And from petless I went to having two---
Needless to say,
My new fish would need a name,
And my Dad said a name that would suit,
With a cat named Crackers, the fish should be 'Soup'---
Crackers and Soup,
What a lesson we learned from you,
Who would have thought what you would do?
Crackers and Soup---
What started out as a little joke,
You both became friends overnight,
A cat and a fish
Had answered my wish,
We three had a friendship so tight---
Those days now seem so long ago
I remember them so very fondly,
No world should be
Without harmony
And if pets can get along, so should we---
Crackers and Soup,
What a lesson we learned from you,
Who would have thought what you would do?
Crackers and Soup---
