Gone Fishin'
Everytime I think about
the things you've done to me,
I get to wondering why I stuck around
for all this misery,
My mama always said,
"There's endless fishes in the sea,
I'll take my best hooks
and go trolling for someone really sweet.
Chorus-
You were the finest catch
that I could ever hope to find,
and I got so excited .....
capturing you with my best lines,
but now I've finally figured out
you're not the keeping kind,
Cause your tongue has got more barbs
than any lion fishes spine.
I'm gonna go and catch a beauty
after just a couple tries,
and say goodbye to angry looks
from your cold, fishy eyes,
lately our loves been snagged with
all your sorrows and your sighs,
we both knew that this was due
and it should come as no surprise....
Chorus-
You were the finest catch
that I could ever hope to find,
and I got so excited......
capturing you with my best lines,
but now I've finally figured out
you're not the keeping kind,
Cause your tongue has got more barbs
than any lion fishes spine.
I know I've left you reeling
and your head is bobbing "no"
but I need some calmer waters,
even though I loved you so,
it hurts to see you wipe
bitter saltwater from your eyes,
but there are oceans for you too
where you will catch some other guy
You were the finest catch
that I could ever hope to find,
and I got so excited
capturing you with my best lines,
but now I've finally figured out
you're not the keeping kind,
Cause your tongue has got more barbs
than any lion fishes spine.
