The fish in the sea are truly a treasure
Not the jewels a diver finds you should measure
It's so quiet in the deep as a fish glides by
Where is it going I wonder where and why

There are so many varieties of life in the sea
and from earth's stresses they seem so free
Until a hook you drop in the water on a fishing line
And after some patience and what seems a long time

You hook in a fish that will be so good to eat
As long as it doesn't try to pull you in off your feet
Then, of course, it's the “one that got away:
And doesn't show up in s picture you took today

As soon as you have that fish sizzling on a fire
With smells so good they fill you with desire
For that great dinner you'll soon be getting
Will soon make you forget about fuming and fretting
