Mud Shark
The Mud Shark dancing lesson
Sh-sh-shark
We're gonna do a little dance, a little dance, we're gonna do a thing called the Mud Shark
Now this dance started up in Seattle
Let me tell you the story about the Mud Shark
Mud Sh-sh-shark
Bring the band on down behind me boys
The origins of the Mud shark are as follows
There's a motel in Seattle, Washington called the Edgewater Inn
The Edgewater Inn is built out on a pier
So that means that when you look out your window, you don't see any dirt
It's got a bay or something out in your backyard (sh-sh-shark)
And to make it even more interesting
In the lobby of the aforementioned motel
There's a bait and tackle shop where the residents can go down whenever they want to
Rent a fishing pole and some preserved minnows
And schlep back up to their rooms
Open the window, stick their little pole outside
And within a few minutes, actually catch a fish of some sort
That they can bring into their motel room and do whatever they want with it
You know what I mean? (Mud Sh-sh-shark)
Now in this bay there's quite a variety of
Fish (mud Sh-sh-shark)
Not only do they have mud sharks up there, they got little arctic pussies that you can catch
Fish! (Mud Sh-sh-shark)
And all of these denizens of the deep can come in real handy
Let's say you were a traveling rock and roll band called the Vanilla Fudge
Let's say one night you checked into the Edgewater Inn with an 8mm movie camera (mud Sh-sh-shark)
Enough money to rent a pole
And just to make it more interesting (mud Sh-sh-shark)
A succulent young lady (no)
With a taste for the bizarre (mud Sh-sh-shark)
My mind drifts back (ooh)
To a meeting, a chance meeting in the Chicago O'Hare Airport
Where the members of the Vanilla Fudge told Don Preston
About the home movie they made at the Edgewater Inn
With a mud shark (mud Sh-sh-shark)
And I'm going to tell you, this dance, the mud shark, is sweeping the ocean
Hey! (Mud Sh-sh-shark)
Out! Get it moving, get it out
We're going to go out, so far
Come on
Out! You go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Out, you go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Now show them what they do with a mud shark
Out, you go out
Now show them what they do with a mud shark
You go out
You do a mud shark, baby
Out, you go out
Hey! Go on, catch the mud shark
So far out, do the mud shark, baby
Hey!
Out, you go out
So far out, do the mud shark, baby
Out! You go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Out, you go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Out! You go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Out, you go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Out! You go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Out, you go out
So far out, you do the mud shark, baby
Out, you go out
So far out, do the mud shark, baby
