A big strong fisher man hooked a swift little fish Who never got hooked-- At least, never before-- Tabled her upon one wide palm-- Incredible excitement this, for a one so tough in the taking-- The hardest to catch yearn hard for their catching-- Still, she would not be taken easy-- Squirming, flailing, biting, biting, Biting the rough skin-- OW OW OW, heard she as flying through the air-- As landing in the water-- she splashed, but did not smile-- Feeling now only loneliness, Now, the clumsy hook of some lesser fisher man

A girl needs a boy like a fish needs a fisherman
A big strong fisher man hooked a swift little fish Who never got hooked-- At least, never before-- Tabled her upon one wide palm-- Incredible excitement this, for a one so tough in the taking-- The hardest to catch yearn hard for their catching-- Still, she would not be taken easy-- Squirming, flailing, biting, biting, Biting the rough skin-- OW OW OW, heard she as flying through the air-- As landing in the water-- she splashed, but did not smile-- Feeling now only loneliness, Now, the clumsy hook of some lesser fisher man
