Was fresh and bright and early
I went towards the river
But nothing still has altered
Just the seasons ring a change
There stood this old timer
For all the world s first poacher
His mind upon his tackle
And these words upon his mind:
(x4)
Bring me a fish with eyes of jewels
And mirrors on their bodies
Bring them strong and bring them bigger
Than a newborn child
Well I ve no use for riches
And I ve no use for power
And I ve no use for a broken heart
I ll let this world go by
(x4)
(dum dum dum dum)
(x2)
There stood this old timer
For all the world s first poacher
His mind upon his tackle
And these words upon his mind:
Bring me a fish with eyes of jewels
And mirrors on their bodies
Bring them strong and bring them bigger
Than a newborn child
(x8)
(x4)
(dum dum dum dum) (and fade)
