Lyrics

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
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
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)
