[Verse] FA# When you grab a hold of me D#F Tell me that I’ll never be set free FA# But I’m a parasite, creep and crawl D#F I step into the night. FA# Two pints of booze D#F Tell me are you a badfish too? (are you a badfish too?)
[Chorus] A#F Ain’t got no money to spend A#F And I hope this night will never end A#F Lord knows I’m weak A#Cm Won’t somebody get me off of this reef FCm And baby your a big blue whale FF I'll grab the reef when all duck diving fails FCm And I can swim but I wish I had never learned FF Cuz the water’s too polluted with germs
[Verse] FA# Dive deep when it’s ten feet overhead D#F And grab the reef, that's underneath my bed, (It’s underneath my bed) A#F Ain’t got no quarrels with God, A#F Ain’t got no time to grow old A#F Lord knows that I’m weak A#Cm Won’t somebody get me off of this reef
[Now, Boss DJ comes in]
