Boom! goes the dynamite as we fish for fish No line, net or hook needed Just a few sticks of dynamite and a Zippo Light the stick and toss it in Wait a few seconds and Boom! There’s a dozen fish ready for the *** Try not to use fast burn sticks You’ll end up in heaven or hell And make sure you throw it far You don’t want splash backs Or to sink your boat if afloat I’ve caught sticklebacks and great whales And a U-boat and dozen other types besides Ate my fill in twenty nations While dynamite fishing It’s no good for the reefs But we pay off the officials No permits needed You know how it is cash talks So I’m allowed to fish where I want And am off to France soon Followed by Spain and Italy To do some illegal Boom! fishing...
