Fins
She came down from Cincinnati
It took three days on the train
Lookin' for some peace and quiet
Hoped to see the sun again
But now she lives down by the ocean
She takin' care to look for sharks
They hang out in the local bars
And the feed right after dark
Can't you feel 'em circlin', honey?
Can't you feel 'em swimming around?
You got fins to the left, fins to the right
And you're the only bait in town
Oh oh
Oh oh
You got fins to the left, fins to the right
And you're the only girl in town
She's saving up all her money
Wants to head it south in May
Maybe roll in the sand with a rock 'n' roll man
Somewhere down in Montserrat way
But the money's good in the season
Helps to lighten up her load
Boys keep her high as the months go by
She's getting poastcards from the road
Can't you feel 'em closin' in, honey?
Can't you feel 'em schoolin' around?
You got fins to the left, fins the the right
And you're the only girl in town
Sailed off to Antigua
It took her three days on a boat
Lookin' for some peace and quiet
Maybe keep her dreams afloat
But now she feels like remora
'Cause the school's still close at hand
Just behind the reef are the big white teeth
Of the sharks that can swim on the land
Can't you feel 'em circlin', honey?
Can't you feel 'em schoolin' around?
You got fins to the left, fins to the right
And you're the only bait in town
You got fins to the left, fins to the right
And you're the only girl in town
