The Lyrics
Bouillabaisse,
A piscine pot
au feu* that’s no
Simple fish stew.
But it’s got brine
And tastes so fine,
But watch for bones!
Don’t use fugu!
Or maybe you
Will end up dead
Watch for tide red. . .
Not white like chowder glue.
Get the lines out; tomorrow
You and me gonna go
Catch a batch and then borrow
A pot, and then we’ll throw
In some plaice
And some Coho,
Maybe Ono,
Finned tuna blue.
And then we’ll dine
And drink some wine—a red, a Rhône
Bouillabaisse. . . .
*approximate pronunciation: poe-toe-fur

Enlightening. I always thought The Bouillabaise was the French national anthem. ;D
Nice and tasty
