Fishfingers Tango Lyrics

I'm eating fishfingers, What happened to their toes?
I'm eating fishfingers, that ev'ry garden grows.
I'm eating fishfingers,
What do you think of that?

I'd rather eat hot dogs, I'd rather eat cold frogs,
Or even eat my hat,
Than eat those fishfingers, with green peas on the side,
Those awful fishfingers, with green peas on the side,

Those awful fishfingers, with crumbs on the outside,
I hate these fishfingers, it worries me to death.
Could we have rice instead? Or tuck into some bread?
I'll say with my last breath,

I hate fish fingers!
