Tuna

Released September 19th 2025

“Tuna” is a playful kids’ song that poses the age-old question: if a tuna is called the chicken of the sea, why isn’t the chicken called the tuna of the land? Add an atmospheric keyboard and a cool guitar riff, and you’re all set for some underwater fun.

 

 

 

Lyrics

It swims in the water that’s how it’s got to be,
But a Tuna gets called the chicken of the sea
But it doesn’t have feathers and it doesn’t have a beak
It’s got fins and a tail but it doesn’t have feet Oh Oh

It gets around under the ocean waves
Sharks live near so it’s got to be brave
When it’s swimming around in the deep blue sea
It looks more like a fish than a chicken to me Oh Oh

Chickens scratch the ground and look for seed
It gobbles them down like 123
It lives on the land and not in the sea
It looks like a bird not a fish to me Oh Oh

Now a chicken doesn’t swim and a chicken doesn’t dive
Put it under water and it wont survive
Tuna and chickens are different thing
Ones got feathers and the others got fins Oh Oh

Now I might be crazy but I don’t understand
Why the chicken isn’t called the tuna of the land
But a tuna gets called the chicken of the sea
None of it makes any sense to me Oh Oh
