Big Fish — текст песни (Moxy FrГјvous)





(Dave)
As a young boy Michael helped his mother cook,
Down by her apron strings the whole day long.
Knife in hand, her eyes trained on the recipe book
He`d salivate as she sang out this song:

(funny old woman`s voice)
Cut the onions, start the dicing.
Listen up Mike, it`s the right thing.
Chop the parsnip for a rich dish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.

(Mike)
When in college our lad made some special friends,
Kept him from subversives and their kind.
Swirled within a world of sports and dividends.
And the song they sang was etched upon his mind:

(All)
Cut the hair off the hippy sleeping.
Listen up Mike, it`s the right thing.
Chop the fringes off the freakish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.

(Murray)
Thirty-five, a burning drive possessed him
To be the greatest golfer in North Bay.
Sometimes a fear of failure near obsessed him.
But then he`d hear the other golfer`s say:

(funny deep voice)
Cut the motion on your back swing.
Listen up Mike, it`s the right thing.
Chop the golf ball with a big swish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.

(Jian)
Now he`s breaking bread with heads of industry.
The captain in the autumn of his years.
He proceeds with Messianical rabidity.
When he echoes mother`s words he hears the cheers:

(All)
Cut the welfare, and public housing.
Listen up Mike, it`s the right thing.
Chop the health-care, you`ll get your wish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish

Cut the child-care and the schooling.
Listen up Mike, it`s the right-wing.
Chop the free-lunch for the poorish.

In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish.


From the Liner:
1996 - We have a brand new ultra right-wing premier of ontario,
but only fools
would believe that our loving leader actually revels in the pain, misery, and economic
disparity that comes as a product of his neo-conservative policies. Mike is
simply doing the `right thing`.
