about

The verses were written by Mary Courtney and myself - she wrote a complete set but I struggled to fit them to the music I had already written (my fault not hers !) The daft chorus is also my fault. The song is (very) loosely based on 'Excerpt from a Teenage Opera' if any of you remember that one ?
This song was entered for the 2019 Spon Spon Festival as part of an art installation at the shop featuring 'Sponnie' the mechanical fish that Mary Courtney invented and we all built along with Coventry Fablab and the Coventry Grapevine (who occupy Moira's shop), a portrait I did of Moira, the poem by Mary, our research and lots of fish which we built/had built in various workshops at Fargo and with Coventry Mind.
The installation actually won the visitors vote on the National Heritage weekend 'Arts Trail' that year ! I am so glad I met Mary but that is another story as they say !

lyrics

Moira's Wet Fish Shop,
it's there but she's not,
Moira's Wet Fish Shop,
we miss her a lot !
