Now listen here, ladies (yeah)
Take this advice, and remember (what?) always in life
Into each heart some tears must fall
Though you love and lose, you must stand tall
'Cause we all got to cry sometimes
I said, sigh sometimes
Pull yourself together
No use crying forever
Because there's too many fish in the sea uh uh uh
Too many fish in the sea
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones
Too many fish in the sea (yeah yeah)

My mother once told me something
And every word is true (what did she say?)
Don't waste your time on a fella
Who doesn't love you (who doesn't love you)
He'll only mislead you
Only grieve you
Don't worry about him
And let him go, do without him
Because there's (too many fish in the sea)
You know there is (too many fish in the sea)

I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones
Too many fish in the sea (yeah yeah)

Well, if the fish isn't on your line
Just bait your hook and keep on trying
Don't let him get you down (no no no)
There's other boys around
'Cause there's too many fish in the sea
You heard me (too many fish in the sea) uh uh uh
(Too many fish in the sea) that's right, there is
(Too many fish in the sea)

I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones
Too many fish in the sea
I don't want nobody that don't want me now
(Too many fish in the sea)
Ain't gonna love nobody that don't love me
(Too many fish in the sea)
I don't need nobody that don't need me
(Too many fish in the sea)
I don't want nobody that don't want me
(Too many fish in the sea)

(Too many fish in the sea)
I said, there's short ones, tall ones, fine ones, kind ones
(Too many fish in the sea)
Smart ones, dumb ones, different ones, black ones
(Too many fish in the sea)
Ain't gonna love nobody, love nobody, love nobody, that don't love me
