Intro

Ocean commotion, catastrophe at sea.

They lay the blame on me

(repeat)

 

1

When there’s been a big commotion

Way down underneath the ocean

Everybody lays the blame on me.

Someone dropsin for a swim

And hops right out without a limb

And everybody lays the blame on me.

 

Chorus

I’m sick of being picked on

And I’m tired of snide remarks.

I’ve never heard a pleasant word

About the poor old sharks.

 

2

But nothing could be ruder

Than a moody barracuda

And the starfishes are vicious as can be.

When lobsters are unhappy

They get horrible and snappy,

All the same they always lay the blame on me.

 

Chorus

 

3

Nowadays it’s trendy

To be very dolphin-friendly,

And the seals are quite appealing, I agree.

They lock you up in jail

If you so much as touch a whale,

But no-one ever thinks of saving poor old me.

 

Chorus
