And to make it even more interestingIn the lobby of the aforementioned motelThere's a bait and tackle shop where the residents can go down whenever they want toRent a fishing pole and some preserved minnowsAnd schlep back up to their roomsOpen the window, stick their little pole outsideAnd within a few minutes, actually catch a fish of some sortThat they can bring into their motel room and do whatever they want with itYou know what I mean? (Mud Sh-sh-shark)
