Rock Lobster

The B-52's

(Capo 3rd fret)
   Am  Fmaj7 E sus7 (x4)
        Am                 Fmaj7 E sus7
        We were at a party
        His ear lobe fell in the deep
        Someone reached in and grabbed it
        It was a rock lobster
                                              Am susM5 C susM6 F7 add7 E sus7 (x4)
                                                Am /D /C /B (x4)  /C /B (x4)
                                                  Am  Fmaj7 E sus7 (x4)

        We were at the beach
        Everybody had matching towels
        Somebody went under a dock
        And there they saw a rock
        It wasn't a rock
        It was a rock lobster
                                            Am susM5 C susM6 F7 add7 E sus7 (x4)
                                              Am /D /C /B (x4)  /C /B (x4)
                                                Am  Fmaj7 E sus7 (x4)

        Motion in the ocean
        His air hose broke
        Lots of trouble
        Lots of bubble
        He was in a jam
        He's in a giant clam
                                          A jam

                 A                                          D
                    Rock, rock, rock lobster
                    Db      C        B Bb A Ab G Gb F E Eb
                    Down, down
                                         Am  Fmaj7 E sus7 (x4)

        Underneath the waves
        Mermaids wavin'
        Wavin' to mermen
        Wavin' sea fans
        Sea horses sailin'
        Dolphins wailin'
                                   Am susM5 C susM6 F7 add7 E sus7 (x4)
                                     Am /D /C /B (x4)  /C /B (x4)
                                       Am  Fmaj7 E sus7 (x4)

        Red snappers snappin'
        Clam shells clappin'
        Muscles flexin'
        Flippers flippin'

                    Rock, rock, rock lobster
                    Down, down
                                          Am  Fmaj7 E sus7 (x2)

                                      Boy's in bikinis
                                      Girls in surfboards

                                      Twistin' 'round the fire
                                      Havin' fun
                                      Bakin' potatoes
                                      Bakin' in the sun

                                      Put on your noseguard
                                      Put on the lifeguard
                                      Pass the tanning butter

                                      Here comes a stingray
                                      There goes a manta-ray
                                      In walked a jelly fish
                                      There goes a dogfish
                                      Chased by a catfish
                                      In flew a sea robin
                                      Watch out for that piranha
                                      There goes a narwhale
                                      Here comes a bikini whale!

                                                                      D2  C2  (F)(E) (x4)
