[Instrumental Intro]


[Verse 1]

So, this ain't the end, I saw you again today

I had to turn my heart away

Smile like the sun, kisses for everyone

And tales, it never fails


[Chorus]

You lying so low in the weeds

I bet you wanna ambush me

You'd have me down, down, down, down on my knees

Now wouldn't you, Barracuda?

Oh


[Instrumental Bridge]


[Verse 2]

Back over time, we were all trying for free

You met the porpoise and me, uh-huh

No right, no wrong, selling a song, a name

Whisper game


[Chorus]

And if the real thing don't do the trick

You better make up something quick

You gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn it to the wick

Ooh, Barracuda

Oh, yeah


[Bridge]

"Sell me, sell you," the porpoise said

Dive down deep now to save my head

You... I think that you got the blues, too

All that night and all the next

Swam without looking back

We made for the Western pools

Silly, silly fools!


[Guitar Solo]


[Chorus]

The real thing don't do the trick

No? You better make up something quick

You gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn it to the wick

Oh, Barra-Barracuda

Yeah


[Outro]

Ooh, hey
