When you grab ahold of me
You tell me that I'll never be set free
But a parasite,
Creeping and crawl, I step into the night
Two pints of boose
Tell me, are you a bad fish too? (Are you a bad fish too?)
Ain't got no money to spend
I hope the night will never end
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off this reef?

Baby, you're a big, blue whale
Grab the reef when all duckdiving fails
I swim, but I wish I never learned
The water's too polluted with germs
I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef that's underneath my bed (It's underneath my bed)
Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to grow old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off this reef?

Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to get old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off this reef?
