If your life goes all awry1 - then take a week off
Say goodbye to table and counter2 - and the lukewarm living room
Throw it overboard
We'll make a fresh start
Go out and catch your luck.
Come along fishing
Put on an old sweater
And just let the beard grow.
It's a good idea to make a fresh start
Put bait on the hook and come along fishing
Money out for car and tax
Money - money - money
New dresses, fur and hat
Christmas lasts a long time
Try and forget it,
Try to make a fresh start
Put bait on the hook and come along fishing!
If you're someone in love
You're dancing on roses
But if someone trips you up3
You say nasty terms
Don't do it
Try to make a fresh start
Put bait on the hook
And come along fishing
Put on an old sweater
And just let the beard grow.
It's a good idea to make a fresh start
Put bait on the hook and come along fishing
