When you've planned a trip for
fishing,
And you've spent a lot of kale,
Bet the whole of your vacation
On some advertiser's tale
And you fish a lake of beauty
Hidden in a land of dreams
Where the air is clean as sunshine
Haunted by songs of crystal streams.
Comes the moment when you're
casting
And a smasher hits your line,
Then you play him like a gamester
Wit h the battle going fine,
Till a snag, a yank, and silence
And the line is hanging slack,
While you grit your teeth and whistle
And reel the fishline back.
Take the pipe and fill with Edgeworth,
Light her up and learn to grin
Then by gum you are elected
