Lyrics

Well I saw this couple

Just the other day

Livin' under a bridge

In a homeless way

Like a million others

All over this land

Livin' day to day

Without a master plan

In this unforgiving world

There ain't no doubt

It will chew you up

And it will 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

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 here

Ans 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
