As a young boy Michael helped his mother cook

Down by her apron strings the whole day long

Knife in hand her eyes trained on the recipe book

He'd salivate as she sang out this song

Cut the onions start the dicing

Listen up Mike it's the right thing

Chop the parsnip for a rich dish

In the small pond you'll be a big fish

In the small pond you'll be a big fish

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 upon his mind

Cut the hair off the hippy 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

Thirty-five a burning drive possessed him

To be the greatest golfer in North Bay

Sometimes a fear of failure near obsessed him

But then he'd hear the other golfer's say

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

Now he's breaking bread with heads of industry

The captain in the autumn of his years

He proceeds with Messianical rabidity

When he echoes mother's words he hears the cheers

Cut the welfare and public housing

Listen up Mike it's the right thing

Chop the health-care you'll get your wish

In the small pond you'll be a big fish

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
