My daughter has a goldfish
Basil is his name
she won him at a fair ground
playing a carnival game
He lives in a tank
all alone in her room
a small little thing
no decor just gloom
If he had a better memory
he would probably regret
being the only fish selected
by my daughter as a pet
At least where he was
he saw all the fun of the fair
popcorn and candyfloss
and a roller-coaster
But I guess with three seconds
there is a lot to take in
before the memory goes
and then starts to begin.
