Goldfish

You’re the one who fell through the roof a year ago.
aren’t you?
Yeah, I thought so.
Still haven’t repaired the shingles or broken boards.
It’s such a shame, these happenings.
Oh! They picked you like a pocket book.
Oh! Is that not where you left your head?
Mama’s cookin' in the kitchen and it smells great.
Daddy’s locked up in the attic so he’s gonna be late.
He said, I’d love to thank you lady, but I cannot stay.
Can’t stop thinkin' 'bout the money that I might have made.
Ahh-ahh-oh!
Saw him put a fish in a fish bowl, up in a tree to hear it sing
it wouldn’t sing, well you know how fish are,
singing when they’re not supposed to, and never when
you want them to, so inappropriate!
Oh! He’s circling…
around, around, around, around and
Oh! …still circling.
But, mama’s cookin' in the kitchen and it smells great.
Daddy’s locked up in the attic so he’s gonna be late.
He said, I’d love to thank you lady, but I cannot stay.
Can’t stop thinkin' 'bout the money that I might have made.
Ahh-ahh-oh! He said, I’d love to thank you lady, but I just can’t stay.
