(Verse 1) I traded two sardines for the way you say my name, the market closed at midnight but my heart stayed open same. Supply is low and demand is you, the ledger's in the red — I'd bankrupt every ocean just to keep you fed. (Chorus) It's fish economics, baby, nothing adds up right, I keep investing everything and lose it every night. But you're the only currency this orbit ever knew — so here's my last sardine, and here's my whole heart too. (Verse 2) The penguins ran the numbers, said this love would not be sound, no profit in the longing, no return to go around. But I have never balanced books with anyone like you — let the auditors go hungry; I know what I'll do. (Bridge) Crash the little market, let the sardine prices fall, when it comes to loving you I'll spend it, spend it all. (Chorus) It's fish economics, baby, nothing adds up right, but you're the only currency that's worth the appetite — so here's my last sardine, and here's my whole heart too.
