So I was at my friend Heather's house last night, and I really wanted to write a rap. So I said "Give me a topic." She said "fishing." I was like "...okay."


[Chorus:]

I'm 'bout ta go fishin'

Because I'm so official

I'll leave you all wishin'

You was with me goin' fishin'

I'm 'bout ta go fishin'

Ya dig, son?

You gon' be so jealous

When I catch a big one

I got my tacklebox

And my fishin' pole

I'm finna get some fish

Out on the Pacific Coast

Don't act like you don't know

I go to Florence, yo

On the water I wanna float

Like T-Pain, I'm on a boat

And you know all the ladies wanna holla but

I'm out in open water tryin'a catch a halibut

Not a bass or a salmon

I'm the master at plannin' this fishin' trip

It's a mission trip; not a frickin' ship

But I'm powerful like a freakin' blast from a cannon


[Chorus]

It ain't fishin' season

But I'm killin' 'em

Like a high school classroom

My fishing net is fillin' up

Growing like it's cancerous

But I'm not minding chemo

While your man is watching movies

I'm out grinding, Finding Nemo

And he can kiss my behind

They'll say "he touched the butt"

I got a Japanese family tree line

So gettin' fish is in my blood

And you can stay home

But now just notice

While you're playin' cards

I'm about to "go fish"


[Chorus x2]
