Pat Dailey - Carpe Diam ( Belly up In The Bay) lyrics

Artist: Pat Dailey

album: Freshwater


Well there's a big old dead carp belly up in the bay
It was nature's intention that he end up that way
He never got eaten 'cause he never got cooked
'Cause he never go netted 'cause he never got hooked
There's a big old dead carp belly up in the bay
Just before he rolled over, I heard him say:
"I lived a long life, a good life; I swam it alone
You stay clear of hooks when the water's you home"
Stay clear of hooks, fish, fowl or man
Don't fall for the bait; you live as long as you can
If the Good Lord preserves you and things go your way
You'll be peacefully goin' belly up in the bay
There's a big old dead carp belly up in the bay
And the seagulls will find him by the end of the day
Peck a hole in his belly, peck out his guts
That's life in the food chain, no if ands or buts.
Belly up in the bay, belly up in the bay
You can't live forever so live every day
If the Good Lord preserves you and things go your way
You'll be peacefully goin' belly up in the bay
