paroles de chanson No Fish Today (Live) - Kid Creole And The Coconuts

I'm sorry, Ma'am,
No fish today (Oh lord, I'm poor
What am I gonna do?
I got a child and a mother,
Two little sisters and a brother,
Don't be cruel,
It's not like you)
I'm sorry Ma'am,
No fish today
Well I sailed out on the sea
With an early morning breeze
Like I always have
And the salmon came along
But I ran into a storm
Before I had my catch
Well I got what I could get
At the price of getting wet
Then I headed back
The Authorities agreed
That if anyone should eat
It should be the upper class
(Oh lord, I'm poor
What am I gonna do?
I got a child and a mother,
Two little sisters and a brother,
Don't be cruel,
It's not like you)

I'm sorry Ma'am,
No fish today
I'm neither right nor wrong
I am just another pawn
In the royal hand
Don't expect me to rebel
This is not a fairytale
I'm no superman
See I got to be this old
Because I do as I am told
And I understand
Though they'd never miss the dent
Of a half a dozen shrimp
Why should I take the chance?
(Oh lord, I'm poor
What am I gonna do?
I got a child and a mother,
Two little sisters and a brother,
Don't be cruel,
It's not like you)

I'm sorry Ma'am... Now if I were in your shoes
I myself would find the food
For my family
So if all your people starve
Then the fault's not in the stars
And it's not in me
I'm sorry Ma'am,
No fish today No fish today...
No fish today...
No fish today...
