Toby Carr’s Difficult Relationship with Tuna
He put it on his toast and
Those he liked the most
He stole it from his cats and
From the fishmonger
He would run fast as he could
His hat blew off in the wind
He was a rapscallion
It all was a game, it all was game
Oh Toby Carr, Toby Carr, Toby Carr's
Got a difficult relationship with tuna
(x2)
In his school photo
He held one high above his head
So the future boys could see what he had
Done, done, done, da da
Oh Toby Carr, Toby Carr, Toby Carr's
Got a difficult relationship with tuna
(x2)
In the dead of night
He drew them high on city walls
In the light of day he showed the girl he loved
Love, love, loved (x3)
Oh Toby Carr, Toby Carr, Toby Carr's
Got a difficult relationship with tuna
(x2)
Oh the love did end
One day he found them sickening
So he threw them all
Far into the sea
They swam away from him
To the lows, to the lows
He waved goodbye to them
From the coast, from the coast
Oh Toby Carr, Toby Carr, Toby Carr's
Got a difficult relationship with tuna
(x2)
