Lyrics by John Lister I am a lobster and I come from the sea, I’m trapped here in a tank, people are staring at me I’m not quite sure why I am here; I’m thrashing to and fro I was minding my business, searching for some food, they caught me in a trap, I think that’s very rude, I don’t mean to sound ungrateful why don’t you let me go Chorus; Pick me; Pick me; I’m the cutest lobster that you’ll ever see I’ll do a dance for you, play my favrit kazoo, if you will only set me free I’ve been searching through this dreadful tank, never found a handle or a window crank You see my claws have been shut by a mystical source I miss my whole Lobster family, I need to get back home, Please, can’t you see Point in a direction and set me on my course Chorus; Pick me; Pick me, I’m the saddest Lobster that you’ll ever see I’ll catch a fish for you, it’s not all I can do, if you will only set me free My name is Johnny Lobster; I’m a Lobster that sings, whatever kind of joy it brings I hope it makes you happy and then you’ll let me go I have another friend he’s Dr. Optimus, and he is the worlds first Lobster Optometrist He will fix your glasses and we’ll wave the opposite of hello Chorus Pick me; Pick me; I’m a Lobster in a state of misery We’ll play this song for you, let you play our kazoo, if you will only set us free I’m not quite sure people are listening to me, But I have a plan that’s gonna set me free All I need’s a magic marker and some poster board in my claw The sign will read Pick Me; Pick Me; and when the people read it, they will set us free When they see my penmanship they’ll stand back in awe Chorus Pick me; pick me I’m the cutest Lobster that you’ll ever see I’ll do my dance for you, even play my kazoo, if you will only set me free |
