He reels around the nightclub
like the hubcaps off a car
That just crashed into a sign that said
"This way to the nightclub."He says you aint worth a dime
to his life support systems
But they still keep him talking
on the chance that he'll say somethingWhoa, don't you feel the decks rolling
I think we're on a stormy sea
I'm having trouble keeping down the light that
I've stolen
He said "Come on and do the crabwalk with
me."He's just trying to breathe some new life into the
jukebox
But it doesn't take his crap, it just keeps on
staring back
And the quarters that he pours down its throat
Well they're just starting to get his goat
The song plays
"I gave you everything and I never got anything back."Don't you feel the decks rolling
I think we're on a stormy sea
Having some trouble keeping down the light that
I've stolen
He said, "Come on and do the crabwalk with me."He went fishing in the ocean
and all he got was a couple tires
And they came up dripping with emotion
But you know how fishermen are liars
The five hundred thousand dollar country guitar
sits at home sad and lonely
No one has any pity for the life of the partyDon't you feel the decks rolling
Hey I think we're on a stormy sea
He's having trouble keeping down the light
that he's stolen
He said, "Come on and do the crabwalk
he said come on and do the crabwalk
he said come on and do the crabwalk
with me
ha ha ha ha
WITH ME
WITH ME!!!!!!"
