The Lyrics
Takin' lobsters from pots, hon,
I fought the claw, and the claw won,
I fought the claw, and the claw won.
This isn't funny, go get a gun.
I fought the claw, and the claw won,
I fought the claw, and the claw won.
It missed my nates, but it squeezed my nads,
Crimped by a crustacean.
I wish instead that I had caught crabs.
I fought the claw, and the claw won,
I fought the claw, and the claw won.
Lobster--blast it with that six gun:
You shot the claw, but you missed, hon;
I don't know now how I'll piss, hon.
I miss that weight; it gave me good fun.
You shot the claw, but you missed hon.
For your faux pas I'm like a miss, hon.
You left me vacant and I feel no-nad,
Divested of my "gun."
I guess I never will be a dad.
You shot the claw; misaimed the gun;
I lost my log--you clear-cut, hon.
I fought the claw, and the claw won,
I fought the claw, and the claw won.
This isn't funny, go get a gun.
I fought the claw, and the claw won,
I fought the claw, and the claw won.
It missed my nates, but it squeezed my nads,
Crimped by a crustacean.
I wish instead that I had caught crabs.
I fought the claw, and the claw won,
I fought the claw, and the claw won.
Lobster--blast it with that six gun:
You shot the claw, but you missed, hon;
I don't know now how I'll piss, hon.
I miss that weight; it gave me good fun.
You shot the claw, but you missed hon.
For your faux pas I'm like a miss, hon.
You left me vacant and I feel no-nad,
Divested of my "gun."
I guess I never will be a dad.
You shot the claw; misaimed the gun;
I lost my log--you clear-cut, hon.

"I wish instead that I had caught crabs." - lol. 5 Band Aids, 5 Stitches and 5 Beers (maybe a "One Bourbon..." parody idea for you?)
As funny as usual, but is there a daily catch limit in this pond? Eight?

Lucky for you it was a lobster. It could have been worse if it had been my 25 lb bobcat/domestic cat who was named Claw. lol 5's
