My barracuda By: jimmy buffett, michael utley, russell kunkel, steve cropper 1988 Beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. a sleeping bag under a bridge by a can*l is still waterfront property. Barracuda... Well i saw this couple Just the other day Livin' under a bridge In a homeless way Like a million others Without any plan Livin' day to day In the promised land In this unforgivin' world there ain't no doubt It'll chew you up and it'll spit you out She calls him barracuda My barracuda She used to work in the circus A real high-wire act He was a lion tamer Up until the attack He came without instructions then he came unglued And now he's just a monster in a human suit
She calls him barracuda My barracuda She still can't figure out what she's doin' down there And she don't know if he loves her or not He may be a barracuda But he's the only lover she's got (oh-oooo) Barracuda (guitar solo) She still can't figure out what she's doin' down there And she don't know if he loves her or not He may be a barracuda But he's the only lover she's got (oh-oooo) Barracuda, yeah My barracuda Not too many fish in the sea (barracuda) Just my barracuda and me (my barracuda) Swimmin' around (barracuda) Check out the town (my barracuda) He's such a barracuda, ooh, yeah (barracuda, yeah)
