Verse 1
G 
C 
When I  was a young
G 
C 
boy, I'd follow the path
G 
Down past the dunes to the sea
C 
And there on the warm sandy
G 
C 
beaches we'd lie
G 
C 
G 
The furry old lobsters and me
C 
They'd whistle and squeal
as they ran through the waves
So sleek, so furry and fair
G 
C 
But now when I go down
G 
C 
to see my old friends
G 
The beaches are empty and bare

Sing hey- hidey- ho,

where'd the old lobster go?

And his body so furry and brown?

Sing ho- hidey- hey,

For we haven't seen many around

New York sends a monster
G

Cursed be the day that it came
C 
They are ugly and small
G

C 
They are lobsters in nothing
G 
but name
C 
They don't smash open clams
on their bellies with stones
They have neither whiskers nor paws
G 
And the furry old lobster's
so easily crushed
In the grip of their terrible claws
