Back when trees would never decay
Sugar canes were only used for books
There was only ever one type of tree
Until Notch announced the 1.2
And then suddenly, around the world
Everyone got excited
Squids would be in Minecraft 1.2
The squids are completely useless
Just be glad it's them, not wolves
Spare a thought for the squids
When you build your waterfalls
You drown them, stab them, watch them die
What did they do to you?
Spread the message around the world
Squids are people too (oh, yeah)
Squids are people too
When I started to play Minecraft
Squids had already been introduced
They were boring, slow and not that easy to kill
And the loot was, frankly, not that good
But then you have to think about it
Nobody loves them
How must it feel to be so alone?
The squids are completely useless
Just be glad it's them, not wolves
Spare a thought for the squids
When you build your waterfalls
You drown them, stab them, watch them die
What did they do to you?
Spread the message around the world
Squids are people too (oh, yeah)
Squids are people too
The squids know there's someone there who loves them
Spread the message out to the world
Somewhere, deep in the ocean
Some squids congregate on the seafloor
When a Minecrafter comes down to see them
They immediately expect the worst to come
But then the stranger starts to give
The squids' cakes and pork chops
Suddenly, they don't feel so alone
The squids are completely useless
Just be glad it's them, not wolves
Spare a thought for the squids
When you build your waterfalls
You drown them, stab them, watch them die
What did they do to you? (Yeah, what did they do to you?)
Spread the message around the world
Squids are people too (no, they're not!)
Squids are people too
