Wet Dream

Am It was April the 41st Dm Being a quadruple leap year E I was driving through downtown Atlantis E7 E My Barracuda was in the shop Am Am So I was in a rented Stingray. And it was overheating Am So I pulled into a Shell station Dm They said I'd blown a seal E I said, "Fix the damn thing E7 E Am Am And leave my private life out of it. Okay, pal?" Am While they were doing that I walked over to a place called the Oyster Bar. Dm A real dive But I knew the owner E He used to play for the Dolphins Am Am I said, "Hi, Gil!". You hafta yell, he's hard of herring Am Think I had a wet dream Dm Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream E E7 E Am Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Am Wet dream. Gil was also down on his luck Dm Fact is, he was barely keeping his head below water E I gullied up to the sandbar E7 He poured the usual Am Am Rusty snail, hold the grunion, shaken, not stirred with a... Am ...peanut butter and jellyfish sandwich on the side Dm Heavy on the mako. I slipped him a fin... E E7 E on porpoise. I was feeling good Am I even dropped a sand dollar in the box for Jerry's squids. Am For the halibut Am Well, the place was crowded Dm We were packed in like sardines E They were all there to listen to the big band sounds of Tommy Dorsal E7 E What sole Am Am Tommy was rockin' the place with a very popular tuna: Am Salmon Chanted Evening Dm And the stage was surrounded by screaming groupers E F5 G5 Probably there to see the bass player Am Am One of them was this cute little yellowtail Dm And she's giving me the eye E So I figure, this is my chance for a little fun E F5 G Am You know -- a piece of the Pisces Am But she said things I just couldn't fathom Dm She was too deep. Seemed to be under a lot of pressure E F5 G Boy, could she drink. She drank like a... Am She drank a lotte Am Am I said, "What's your sign?" Dm E She said, "Aquarium." I said, "Great! Let's get tanked." Am Think I had a wet dream Dm Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream E E7 E Am Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Am Wet dream. Am I invite her up to my place for a little midnight bait Dm I say, "C'mon baby, it'll only take a few minnows" E E7 E She threw me that same old line Am Am/E Am/G "Not tonight, I got a haddock" And she wasn't kiddin' either Dm 'Cause in came the biggest, meanest looking haddock I'd ever seen come down the pike E F5 He was covered with mussels. He came over to me, G5 He said, "Listen shrimp Am Don't you come trolling around here" Am What a crab. This guy was steamed N.C. I could see the anchor in his eyes Bm I turned to him. I said, "A-balone! Em You're just being shellfish" F# Well, I knew there was going to be trouble. And so did Gil. G5 A5 Bm 'Cause he was already on the phone to the cods Vere Bm The haddock hits me with a sucker punch Em I catch him with a left hook. He eels over F# G5 A5 It was a fluke, but there he was, lying on the deck Bm Bm Flat as a mackerel. Kelpless Em I said, "Forget the cods, Gil. This guy's gonna need a sturgeon" Am Bm ... Well, the yellowtail was impressed with the way I landed her boyfriend Em She came over to me, she said "Hey big boy, you're really a game fish" "What's your name?" EM I said, "Marlin" Em Think I had a wet dream Am Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream B B7 B Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Em Wet dream Em Well from then on, we had a whale of a time Am I took her to dinner. I took her to dance B B7 I bought her a bouquet of flounders And then I went home with her Em And what did I get for my trouble? Em A case of the clams Em Think I had a wet dream Am Cruisin' through the Gulf Stream B B7 B Em Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Em Wet dream.
