PRIMUS - The Ol' Diamond Back Sturgeon lyrics

rate me

The old diamondback sturgeon came swimmin' along<br>Minding his business one day<br>Rooting and sniffing and urging to spawn<br>In the mud flats of san pablo bay<br><br>A scent came around so he followed his snout<br>He found what was to his surprise<br>A golden morsel, a tidbit, a tight bunch of grass shrimp<br>Was there right before this buck's eyes<br><br>He circle round twice and he took a big whiff<br>Then sucked up this savory meal<br>Then came a jolt and to the diamondback's surprise<br>Through his lips cut the cold, barbed steel<br><br>In a panic the old diamondback sped to the north<br>He sped to the east, west and south<br>But the harder he swam, he still could not break free<br>From the tugging that pulled at his mouth<br><br>The old diamondback sturgeon came swimmin' along<br>Minding his business one day
