"Red As A Lobster" lyrics

Red as a lobster, hot, hot, hot
Went to the beach without his shirt on
The sun made him red, so they called him Lobster John
Put him on a dish with a ribbon on

There was a young man, he came from Avalon
His name was Bill, but his friends called him John
He went out to the beach without a shirt on
Tried to squirt his sunscreen, but he had none

Red as a lobster, hot, hot, hot
Went to the beach without his shirt on
The sun made him red, so they called him Lobster John
Put him on a dish with a ribbon on

Johnny in the ocean, going for a swim
Along came a fishing boat and pulled Johnny in
"Catch of the day," all the sailors said
Poor Johnny cried, "I'm not a lobster, I'm just red"

Red as a lobster, hot, hot, hot
Went to the beach without his shirt on
The sun made him red, so they called him Lobster John
Put him on a dish with a ribbon on

Shipped off to Boston, Lobster Johnny went
To be served at an evening with the president
They drizzled him with butter and squeezed some lemon on
This could've been avoided if I put my sunscreen on

Red as a lobster, hot, hot, hot
Went to the beach without his shirt on
The sun made him red, so they called him Lobster John
Put him on a dish with a ribbon on

Out came the main course, some lobster and some tea
This was Johnny's chance to get himself free
He jumped up and ran into the garden
The president said, "I'll give you a pardon"

Red as a lobster, hot, hot, hot
Went to the beach without his shirt on
The sun made him red, so they called him Lobster John
Put him on a dish with a ribbon on
Put him on a dish with a ribbon on
