"For sometime now I've had this secret wish
Someone would send me a love letter on a fish
For a fish and a love letter
Just seem to go together
The sooner I get my fish wish
The better I would say
Someone could start out
To pour his heart out on a trout
I'd read and sigh and then I'd fry it my delish
Even when the weather's sunny
And it makes the mailbox smell real funny
Send me a love letter on a fish

"Oh I would love to hear from you on one condish
That when you pitch your woo you pitch it on a fish
It would give me such a thrill
To read I love you on each gill
Or darlin' on a marlin
Things profounder on a flounder
If you'd fain complete your pass
Don't be crass employ a bass
Yeah use that shad for a pad oh I insish
Ten million postcards on a school
Holy mackerel Batman cool
Send me a love letter on a fish

"Send me a love letter darlin
Send me a love letter on a fish
Show me that you like me
Tuna melt me smelt me pike me
Send me a love letter on a fish
If you think I'm super
Say it with a grouper
When you're mushy on a sushi I'm in blish
If you want a date
Get out your Papermate and
Decorate a skate
Send me a love letter on a fish"
