Fishman
Impatient Tides: A Tale of Waiting for the Fishman
Lyrics
I ain't got no time to wait here
I don't have time to wait here.
He said he'd be here
Someone promised to be here.
6 o'clock by this stand
Specifically at 6 o'clock by a stand.
His brand new catch is full of rope in his hand
The person has a new catch, holding rope.
Slowly walks across the rocks in the sand
Slowly walking across rocks in the sand.
Don't make me wait here
Impatient about waiting.
I'm losing patience
Losing patience.
You've gotta be joking dear
Expressing disbelief or frustration.
Don't make me wait here
Reiteration of impatience.
Don't make me wait here no more!
Strong plea to not make the speaker wait anymore.
I'm losing patience
Continuation of losing patience.
You've gotta be joking dear!
Expressing disbelief or frustration again.
Don't make me wait here no more
Reiteration of the plea to not make the speaker wait.
Feed him, but there's no thanks from that stupid man
Feeding someone, but not receiving thanks.
The rum goes down till he finds some new land
Drinking rum until finding new land.
His brand new catch is full of rope in his hand
Repetition of having a new catch with rope.
Slowly walks across the rocks in the sand
Repetition of walking across rocks in the sand.
Don't make me wait here
Impatient plea not to make the speaker wait.
I'm losing patience
Continuation of losing patience.
You've gotta be joking dear
Expressing disbelief or frustration.
Don't make me wait here
Reiteration of the impatient plea.
Don't make me wait here no more!
Strong plea not to make the speaker wait anymore.
I'm losing patience
Continuation of losing patience.
You've gotta be joking dear!
Expressing disbelief or frustration again.
Don't make me wait here no more
Reiteration of the plea to not make the speaker wait.
Don't make me wait here
Repetition of the impatient plea.
Waiting for the fishman!
The speaker is waiting for the fishman.
Don't make me wait here...
Repetition of the impatient plea.
