You'd rather be toyed with...

I reeled you in and cast you out
back to the fishes
you tried to breathe air but couldn't believe
couldn't see sky under sea

you swam up current all these years
and here you are dangling from my hook
it's caught in your jaw again

you say that you'd like a confused little boy
to toy with, don't lie
you've eaten the little fish and still you are starving
you're tired of minnows, lillies and ninnies

you're tired of boys with you'd rather be toyed with
you'd rather be mine but you'd fall out in time
