Casting out my best lure
on a fishing line
Reeling it back again
Hoping for a bite this time.
I don’t want to catch the fish
I want to lose the bait
But the fish don’t seem to like my lure
I guess I will just wait.
Eventually I’ll get one bite
And that one will be the thinker
Because when someone takes the bait
They’ll fall for me hook, line and sinker.
