Max Sharp was an aquanaut With the gills and fin Especially bred for the oceany bed Waterproof head and skin Going down to the submarine town 20 fathoms deep Whoever thought a man breathin' water I wonder if there's trouble with the bubbles when he sleeps Mermaids in underwater glades Playing with electric eels Deep sea shock of Davey Jones' Lock(er) Rockin' from his head to his heels One was quite a dish but she was half a fish If only, he wished she had legs I guess he saw her, hooked on Neptune's daughter Now they're expecting their first eggs Max Sharp was an aquanaut With the fins and gills He swims where he pleases in the seven seas Jesus, what a thrill But the Navy boys with the sonar noise Sailing in the tubs of tin Got him with torpedoes in the back of his Speedos Holy Toledo, that was the end of him
