Shark in my Bathtub

from BUGS by MISTER G

/

lyrics

There’s a shark in my bathtub
And he’s swimming right towards me
There’s a shark in my bathtub
And he’s swimming right towards me
I say, “Mister Shark please tell me, are you mean or friendly?”

He said, “First of all my name is Gus,
I guess you’ve heard I’m dangerous
I’m the meanest shark you’ve ever seen
When kids see me they always scream
So grab your rubber ducky
And tell me are you feeling lucky?”

I thought real hard and I thought real quick
And I looked around to find a stick
Gus watched me with an evil eye
He said, ‘”It’s time to say goodbye.”
I said, “Hold on, Gus do you have a wish
Before I become your dinner dish?”

He said, “There is one thing I’ve always dreamed
And that’s to be a shark who’s clean
I’ve swum the oceans far and wide
Through muck and mud and algae tide
These barnacles are stuck on me
Can you get them off please?”

I said, “Gus I’ve got the answer to your troubles,”
Then I reached around and grabbed the bubbles
The foam and suds made Gus feel jolly
And I was saved, by gosh by golly
Kids remember keep your bubbles near
Then you’ll never have to fear
