I got no reason to be paranoid
What's on the hook, that's what I avoid
I was born underwater without a sound
With my fins in the drink and the sea all around

You better swim
Baby, you better swim
I got a smile like a tiger shark
Now I'm gonna do you in

I'm short and I'm tall, I'm black and I'm white
Sometimes I'd be wrong, sometimes I'd be right
I'm iron and steel, and I'm bad to the bone
You go looking for trouble, don't you come alone

You better swim
Baby, you better swim
I got a smile like a tiger shark
Now I'm gonna do you in

Come on, Spongey!

I've see them come and I've see them go
I see things and been people that nobody knows
I'm talking at pictures and I'm paintin' 'em black
I'm telling you, fish-face, you ain't never coming back
You better swim
Baby, you better swim
I got a smile like a tiger shark
Now I'm gonna do you in
Yeah
