She was a guppy, an elver, a stickleback.
And being too small
I threw her back.
Now.
Now she's a rainbow trout,
A sexy salmon, a dish of a fish.
And I,
Moral-boned idiot,
I threw her back!
« return.

| When I first caught my sweetheart, She was a guppy, an elver, a stickleback. And being too small I threw her back. Now. Now she's a rainbow trout, A sexy salmon, a dish of a fish. And I, Moral-boned idiot, I threw her back! « return. |
