Goldfish Bead

"Girls Who Keep Goldfish"

by Jazz Butcher

Girls who keep goldfish
Interest me strangely
Girls who keep goldfish
Fascinate my mind
What are they doing here?
Why are they here at all?
Chorus:

Hey I'd like to know - Those fish are awful small (x2)
Goldfish are silent under the water
Girls who keep goldfish
Are sometimes quite loud
Is there a reason?
Should it happen at all?

Chorus

Goldfish or Mondays are life as it should be
Goldfish are grateful for sun and for food
Is there a secret?
Oh is there a secret at all?

Chorus (x2)

Girls Who Love Goldfish

There was a song about girls who love goldfish. This was back in the late 70's, early 80's. But I'm drawing a blank on the band. I had the cassette. Played it in my '67 Beetle. Car's name was Nil. Nil Beetle. That was a play on a SCTV character named Bill Needle, who was like Andy Rooney, only entertaining. But that's enough Memory Lane for now.

I used to keep goldfish and koi. Last week I made a few goldfish and koi beads and I've turned them into zipper pulls. I love the white koi with orange-red splotches, big white lips, and whiskers. I'm going to have to keep that one for myself, but others will start turning up in my etsy shop (www.sockmonkeybeads.etsy.com) soon.
