You’re a shark ! With your claws,
I should have seen your teeth were sharp.
You appeared to only wish to nibble my ears,
But, you left teethmarks, bigger than jaws.
There are plenty more fish in the sea,
But it’s dark in here and through this net, I cannot see.
Oh ! My God !
Last night, I shared bed,
With a shoal of cod swimming in my head..
You tickled my body like an octopus,
Then swam in my waters, without further fuss.
If there were only starfish in the sea,
You would certainly be the best starfish for me.
Chorus
Plenty more fish in the sea,
You came calling to take me trawling,
Now I only see you crawling …
It’s appalling that we’re now stalling. Falling.
Chorus
