Stinky Fishes Roam (text-to-speech poem)

By Sir Bunting on September 15, 2024 8:02 pm

Out on the open sea
The stinky fishes roam
Twirling round! Twirling round!

Out on the open sea!
The stinky fishes sing
a surly round! Burly boys, sing!

One look at John, boys, what do you see?
A stinky fish looking back at me!
Turn around, John, turn around!

I don’t mean to bully!
I don’t mean to be rude! Dear cully!
But one look at John boys and what do you see?
A stinky fish with two eyes that roam
Bloating and curling! Oh take me home!
So I won’t have to look at Johnny no more!

Out on the open sea
The stinky fishes roam
Twirling round! Twirling round!

Out on the open sea!
The stinky fishes sing
a surly round! Burly boys, sing!

One look at Johnny - you know what that brings!
One look hurts my eyes! Oh how it stings!
Turn around, John, turn around!

I don’t mean to bully!
I don’t mean to be rude! Dear cully!
But one look at John boys and what do you see?
A stinky fish with a mouth full of foam!
Full of drink! Stinking! Oh it’s like home!
That’s the old Johnny that we all know!
Yo ho! Yo ho!
The stinky fishes roam! Yo ho!

How does this daft concoction have no comments?

I really like the imagery you have going on here, I can practically smell the fish. Though I will admit that at first I wondered if this was intended to be a diss track against sportswriter Jon Bois.

Thanks for checking it out lol, well poems are all about interpretation, it's about pirates who call themselves stinky fish, but maybe that's only the first layer of.. uh.. literariness!
