The Lyrics

In memory of Charlie the Tuna.....who died of mercury poisoning.
Tuna fish, 30 grams of protein in my dish
Best on rye with mayo and relish
Oh, I sure like my tuna fish.

Water-packed, eating Flipper gonna keep me jacked
50 cans or so that I’ve got stacked
In my cupboard’s nice storage rack.

When they go on sale mini whale, I do not know.
I bought some knish, now I wish for tuna fish.

Tuna fish, Charlie O-D’d on some mercury
Never made it to the fishery
I think he died in Albany.

Why he had to go, toilet flow, a royal flush
I said, “Charlie’s dead, was mislead, the ending gush.

Tuna fish, happy cousin of the albacore
Helps me sleep so that I will never snore
These wonders of the ocean floor.
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm.

Thanx Gents! I have tuna on whole grain bread for breakfast 3-4 times a week, amazing how long the 30+ grams of protein last before hunger strikes again...water packed + zero fat!

You're absolutely right Malcolm, I eliminated the word "that" in the last verse while recording last night, my bad! Everything else worked OK.
