Verse:
Em A7
As young boy Michael helped his mother cook
Em B7
Down by her apron strings the whole day long
Em A7
Knife in hand her eyes trained on the recipe book
C D
He`d salivate as she sang out this song
Chorus:
G C
Cut the onions, start the dicing,
D G
Listen up Mike, it`s the right thing
G C
Chop the parsnip, for a rich dish,
Cm G
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
Cm G (B7)
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
Verse:
When in college our lad made some special friends
Kept him from subversives and their kind
Swirled within a world of sports and dividends
And the song they sang was etched apon his mind
Chorus:
Cut the hair off the hippies sleeping
Listen up Mike, it`s the right thing
Chop the fringes, off the freakish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
Verse:
35 a burning drive possessed him
To be the greatest golfer in North Bay
Sometimes a fear of failure near obsessed him
And then he`d hear the other golfers say
Chorus:
Cut the motion on your back swing
Listen up Mike, it`s the right thing
Chop the golf ball with a big swish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
Verse:
Now he`s breaking bread with heads of industry
The Capitan in the Autumn of his years
He proceeds with masionical rapidity
When he echos mothers words he hears the cheers
Chorus:
Cut the welfare and public housing
Listen up Mike it`s the right thing
Chop the healthcare, you`ll get your wish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish (everyone!)
Cut the child care and the schooling
Listen up Mike it`s the Right Wing
Chop the free lunch for the poorish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish
In the small pond you`ll be a big fish!
