There once was a fisher named Ollie
He went through his life feeling jolly
When his fishing line snapped
He decided to nap
And never became melancholy
His bait was a big red strawberry
And away the waves did carry
He found a new friend
And that isn't the end
Cuz his friend was an octopus named Jerry.
When Jerry saw Ollie was snoozin,
He decided that strawberry'd be losin'
He grabbed it, you bet,
But Ollie caught him in a net
And that wasn't the end he'd be choosin'
But Ollie was really kind hearted
And he saw what his napping had started
He let Jerry go
And swim off with the flow
And that's how the two friends parted.
