The Fishing Song

It's early in the morning, way before dawn
I down a cup of coffee put my lucky hat on
Get down to the water, before all the crowds
Gonna have more fun than the law allows

With my hot rod, I go out to prove
When I'm on the prowl, I never lose
I fire up my Merc and put the throttle down
'Cause I've got the fastest fishing boat in town
I open up my tackle box, it's so big!
Crank baits, sink baits, beer and jigs
Got my bobbers on, and my 10 pound test
Gonna catch me a lunker gonna be the best

(Gonna go fishing) Gonna have some fun
(Gonna go fishing) 'Cause it's number one
(Gonna go fishing) Gonna sit on my butt
(Gonna catch a fish) And scrape out its guts
Ahhh, fishing!

I fish on the lake, by the sunken tree stump
Between the sewage output, and the chemical dump
Don't swim in the lake, says a sign on a tree
It's a good thing that fish can't read
I got my 10 dollar lure, the one that floats
And I make a big cast from my 20 grand boat
With my thousand dollar rod, or maybe it's more
Gonna catch me a fish that's 5 bucks at the store

(Gonna go fishing) Gonna have some fun
(Gonna go fishing) 'Cause it's number one
(Gonna go fishing) Gonna sit on my butt
(Gonna catch a fish) And scrape out its guts
Ahhh, fishing!

I feel something tugging on the end of my line
(Tug, tug, tug, tug, tug that line)
I'm gonna catch a fish, it's gonna be so fine
(Fish, fish, fish, fish, fish so fine)
Oh it feels so good to touch fish slime
(Slime, slime, slime, slime, fishy slime)
There's nothing else to do with my free time
(Time, time, time, time, waste of time)

Why do Germans have more spare time these days?

HAMBURG (Reuters) - Germans are having less sex and doing it faster, according to a survey
published on Tuesday by the condom manufacturer Durex.

The survey found that German men and women had on average of 112 sexual contacts in 1997,
down from 129 in 1996, the company said. The average amount of time for each contact fell to 17.2
minutes from 18.9.

The survey also reported France won the world championship not only in soccer in 1998, but in sex
frequency in 1997. The French had the highest rate in 1997 at 141, but that had also declined from
151. The least active were found in Hong Kong, where the average fell to 57 per year from 77.

The speed was greatest in Thailand, where 10.4 minutes were spent per contact while the Americans
spent the longest time -- on average 28.1 minutes in 1997, up from 25.3 minutes in 1996.
