STORY OF FICTIONAL TINKIE'S CAVE

Lyrics

FISHERMEN HAVE A SONG TO SING
DOWN IN TINKIE'S CAVE BOAT SO SMALL SEA SO BIG YOU JUST GOTTA BEHAVE
STEP OUTTA LINE A WIND COME UP
BLOWS YOU CLEAR TO FRANCE
WATCH YOUR STEP AND TAKE YOUR TIME
YOU'RE ALLOWED TO DANCE

THERE'S NO CHANCE OF A HURRICANE DOWN IN TINKIE'S
CAVE
RIDE A STORM LIKE A RODEO
NOBODY HAS TO BE SAVED
FROM THE TEETH THAT GRINDIN' ON THE RIVER BED
BIG ROCK HANGIN' OVER HEAD
MAN CAN LIVE ON WHAT HE GATHERS
DOWN IN TINKIE'S CAVE

OH YOU'D LOVE THE SEAFOOD THERE IT'S A DIFFERENT KIND
STARFISH ARE LIKE CANDY, CAVE FISH ARE BLIND
URCHIN'S FILLED WITH CAVIER, TREKLE CAN'T BE BEAT
GUMBOOT, ABALONE, GOLLYWOG'S A TREAT

WE ALL EAT BACKWARDS THERE HERE'S THE REASON WHY
IF TINKIE'S CAVE SHOULD DISAPPEAR
AT LEAST WE'VE HAD OUR PIE

IN WINTERTIME AND YOU NEED SOME WARMTH
YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOOK TO FAR
JUST SNUGGLE UP TO A HIBERNATIN' BEAR
WITH YOUR 3 POUND HERSHEY BAR
NOW YOU MIGHT FEEL A LITTLE BIT SCARED
WITH HIS SNORING BY AND BY
JUST PULL HIS EARS, PINCH HIS NOSE
STICK YOU FINGER IN HIS EYE
(MUSIC INTERLUDE)
ALL RIGHT NOW LET'S MOVE OUR FEET
EVERYBODY TAKE A CHANCE
WATCH YOU STEP AND TAKE YOU TIME
YOU CAN DO THE CAVE DANCE
IT'S REAL EASY ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS SHUFFALATE YOUR
FEET
ALL JOIN HANDS AND MOVE AROUND TO THE SYNCOPATIN'
CAVE BEAT
SYNCOPATIN' BABIES WITH YOU P.J.'S ON
JUMP STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN
WATCH YOUR STEP, CAREFULL NOW THERE'S A PILLOW
FIGHT GOIN' ON
(MUSIC INTERLUDE)
NOW YOU'VE HEARD MY STORY BOYS
BED TIME CHRIS AND DAVE
BESIDES THERE'S NOTHIN' LEFT TO SING
THAT RHYMES WITH TINKIE'S CAVE
