"How's it goin' dude?
Hey man, what's up?
Tell Todd he can turn the radio back on."
When you grab ahold of me
You tell me that I'll never be set free
But I'm a parasite,
Creep and crawl I step into the night
Two pints of booze
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 would never end
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef?
Baby you're a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck divin' fails
I swim but I wish I'd never learned
The water's too polluted with germs
I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef underneath my bed (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 of this reef?
I gotta go dude!
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 of this reef?
