Whisked Off Into Middle Sea
We were whisked off into the middle of the sea
By a golden carp named Chicka May mee
She saved us from a fate worse than death I guess
Anyway, that’s what I heard from Uncle McNess
We travelled all day, a night, almost a week
She finally let us off on an old widow’s peak
The hag shook her head and we fell on the table
What have you there? Asked her sister Mable.
I think it’s a family in a mini house, she said.
The carp named Chicka May mee promptly fled.
We were taken in by the sisters, put on a table.
We liked them both, but especially sister Mable.
