lyrics

Octopus

that’s all I want
nothing else will do
that’s all I crave
octopus & you

I was in the mood for octopus
That’s when nothing else will do
I went down to the beach to catch some octopus
who was out there swimming
I jumped into the dark, cold sea.


that’s all I want
nothing else will do
that’s all I crave
octopus & you

There the octopus attacked me,
He wanted to eat some people

After a fight I crushed his head with a rock
And he died and I
pulled him outta the dark, cold sea.

that’s all I want
nothing else will do
that’s all I crave
octopus stew


I cooked him up and ate him
It was the best octopus I ever had
My being was infused with essence of octopus
It made me wanna
jump back into the dark, cold sea.
