This is where Johnny meets Annette.

lyrics

DO THE LOBSTER

Annette: Put your claws up just like this
snap ‘em up and down
move your head from side to side
shake your tail around

Do the Lobster! Do the Lobster!
It’s such a cinch
when you’re in a pinch
Do the Lobster!

It’s our special every night
Just hear those people talk
When we cook it up just right
They line up around the block to

Do the Lobster! Do the Lobster!
When it’s time for dinner
You’re sitting on a winner
with the Lobster.

It’s not jig’s dinner, fish and brews
or flipper pie they can’t refuse
I’ll tell you why it’s the dish they choose
Give it a try, you just can’t lose

Do the Lobster! Do the Lobster!
It’s a fancy dish
that is so delicious
Do the Lobster!

Real sweet meat, a tasty treat
that can’t be beat all along George Street
Try it once and you’ll be hooked
Our restaurant is always booked to

Do the Lobster! Do the Lobster!
If you can’t decide
have it steamed or fried
Do the Lobster!

Johnny: I think I just found my favourite dish
I might have to come back here every night
This is one meal I will not forget
Yes, Annette you whet my appetite.

I don’t have to take the test
I know why all the guys come here to eat

Squirt: Here’s a bib so you don’t make a mess

Johnny: What I want is clear to me

Do the Lobster! Do the Lobster!
It’s such a cinch
when you’re in a pinch
Do the Lobster

Annette: You butter me up. I’m turning red.

Johnny: Trying to get you out of your shell

Annette: You’re in some hot water now, might be in over your head

Johnny: Guess I might as well

Do the Lobster! Do the Lobster!
It’s the creeping crustacean
that’s sweeping the nation
do the Lobster!
