Terveisiä kalojen maailmasta
Kauko Röyhkä Lyrics

The lyrics of Kauko Röyhkä's "Terveisiä kalojen maailmasta" describe a feeling of isolation and detachment from the world around the singer. The opening lines "Tänään ei ole mikään päivä. Pöly valossa hiljaa leijailee, Leijailee" suggest that the singer is in a state of apathy, with time passing slowly and without meaning. The image of dust floating in the light creates a sense of stillness and quietness. The following lines, "Istun ammeessa, vesi virtaa, Yli laitojen, enkä ollenkaan välitä, Ollenkaan välitä" describe the singer's immersion in water, which is often associated with the subconscious mind and emotional states. The water flowing over the edge of the tub suggests a sense of being overwhelmed, while the singer's indifference to this sensation implies a feeling of numbness or disconnection.

The next lines, "Olohuoneessa matto kastuu; Tunnin kuluttua nahkasohva ja stereot, Kalliit stereot." depict a flood of some kind, with water pouring onto expensive furniture and electronics. This creates a sense of chaos and destruction, but the singer seems unbothered by it. The objects floating in the water, like the globe, coffee cup, and sunglasses, suggest themes of travel and escape. The final lines, "Kultakalojen kanssa kilpaa, Sukeltelen lasipöydän alitse, Pöydänkin alitse. Tänään ei ole mikään päivä. Kunnialliset kansalaiset repii ovea auki, Moottorisahalla," continue with images of underwater exploration, where the singer is racing with goldfish under a glass table. The mention of "kunnialliset kansalaiset" (honorable citizens) using a chainsaw to break down a door creates an atmosphere of danger and violence, a possible contrast to the singer's peaceful detachment.
