Lyrics/Music S.Mitchell/L.Pollack Next Friday night your all invited To dance from 8 to 5 All the fishes still alive Are having a ball Its some affair they'll all be there From the Herring to the Whale They'll turn out to shake a scale In Neptune's Hall Come along and follow me To the bottom of the sea We'll join in the Jamboree At the Codfish ball Lobsters dancing in a row Shuffle off to Buffalo Jelly fish sway to and fro At the Codfish ball Finn-an-haddie leads the eel Thought an Irish reel The Catfish is a dancing man But he can't can-can like a sardine can Tunas trucking left and right Minnies mooching what a night There won't be a hook in site At the Codfish ball
