I spent my money, half away A fishing boat, on a fisherman's lake I like the ocean's waves and how they behave Who am I kidding? Out along the waves, I hear a trumpet play And the sirens sing, between dreams of light and submarines we play That's when I hear her say Fisherman don't get carried away Fisherman don't get carried away Fisherman don't get carried away Fisherman don't get carried away I spent my money, broken and true, yea All alone on this ocean of youth, I read signs that say We've paid our rowing waves to make a shining city Out along the waves I hear the wanderer say And the sirens sing, between dreams of light and submarines, they pray That's when I heard her say Fisherman don't get carried away Fisherman don't get carried away Fisherman don't get carried away Fisherman don't get carried away
