INTERVIEW WITH A GOLDFISH
Good morning Mr. Goldie
And welcome to the show.
How is life for a goldfish,
Our viewers would like to know?
Well, as you can see, my world is round,
So I have three-sixty vision.
I can see the sideboard over there
And round here’s the television.
I watch a lot of programmes
And I like them on the whole.
But sometimes I’d change channels
If I had the remote control.
Of course, I live under water
So my world is rather quiet.
And, although he feeds me twice a day,
It’s a pretty boring diet.
I like to see the visitors
Who call from day to day.
I’m trying to learn to lip read,
For I can’t hear what they say.
He’s recently got a girl-friend,
So the next bit’s censored I fear.
Oh, I could tell you a thing or two
About what goes on in here,
Well thank you Mr. Goldie
For giving this interview.
Please end by telling the viewers
What the future holds for you.
I’d like to do some travelling
And I hope the time will come
When my owner decides to move me
To a big aquarium.
I’ll swim to every corner
And meet lots of other fish.
I might meet a lady goldie.
Yes, that’s my greatest wish.
But, for now, I’ll swim in circles.
Just going round and round
And round and round and round and round
And round and round and round.
