The fish is on the line
He's wriggled off this time and now he's free
The fish is doing well
Only time will tell
So he needs to find out why
He shouldn't try
Does she even care if he's not there
Oh I don't believe in this at all
There must be so much more
No I didn't mean what I just said
I meant something else instead
The fish is under the spell
He wonders how he fell
But he never found out why
He didn't try
Does she even care if he's not there
Oh I don't believe in this at all
There must be so much more
No I didn't mean what I just said
I meant something else instead
So sometime, it's hard to think
It's like you're mind is on the blink
You sink deep and time just flew
