G5                 C5 
I was a cook and she was a waitress 
G5                  D5             G5 
Down at the Salty Dog Seafood Caf? 
     G5                                       C5 
And somewhere 'tween the clam juice and the seaweed salad 
 G5                   D5             G5 
Some little shrimp just lured her away 


       G5                     C5 
Oh I lobster and never flounder 
    G5 
He wrapped his line around her 
          D5                D5 
And they drove off in his carp 
      G5                 C5 
Oh I lobster and never flounder 
   G5                               D5         G5 
I octopus his face in, he'll only break her heart.  
 
I said just squid and leave me for that piano tuna 
If you want to trout something new 
She was the bass I ever had, now my life has no porpoise 
Oh my cod I love her yes I do 
 
Chorus 
 
Spoken: Frankly scallop, I don't give a clam
