The theme is "Aquatic Creatures". An aqualung is certainly not a creature. Also there is no reference in the song's lyrics to any aquatic creature.

 

[Flied Egg]

"Hey and you snatch your rattling last breaths
With deep-sea diver sounds
And the flowers bloom like
Madness in the spring"

 

[system7]

Yes, I can see that, vaguely. Since it's only No.14, we can let it go. 😀

You'd better hurry up. I am trying to remember a Chuck Berry number about a sort of Ling, which is a fish, I think.

OK, I hold my hands up, I missed that, but some people would want to draw a distinction between humans and creatures. 🙂
