The Lyrics
Pretty pearls just seem to find out early
How to make an oyster spit its bile
An itch of sand
That oyster starts to worry
He'll cough up precious paste to coat what's vile
Crated tight, that big oyster's not lonely
I guess ev'ry form of shellfish has its price
But he'll break apart, whatever tool is boldly
Riven through his crack to serve him cold with ice
Something tells him that this oyster's stubbornness is
A sign that something precious is inside
But he don't know he's dealing with a shellfish
With a priceless pearl that it's intent to hide
You can try, you pryin' guy
Get your knife to slip in the side
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way inside, you pryin' guy
On the other side of town a man is waiting
With firey eyes and tools made out of steel
He drives on through the night anticipating
'cause his greed's a need that steels the way he feels
He pushes in his blade, the oyster quivers
He whispers, "Come on bastard, show a smile!"
He swears and swoons and he staggers back and shivers
He pulls away, blade broken, shards in piles
You can try, you pryin' guy
Get your knife to slip in the side
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way inside, you pryin' guy
He gets up, and pours himself a strong one
And stares down at the shards there on the floor
That oyster's life, it's gonna be a long one
He grabs the booze, and pours himself some more
He wonders at this oyster's super-powers
He thinks about Jor-EL and Clark Kent, too
He got so tired - he tried to pry for hours
He grabs a pinch of chaw and has a chew
"My oh my, you sure are quite stubbornly brave,"
He said to that oyster, respectfully
Took that mollusk, back out with him, to the deep waves
And then he placed it back into the sea
You can try, you pryin' guy
Get your knife to slip in the side
I thought by now you'd realize
There ain't no way inside, you pryin' guy
There ain't no way inside, you pryin' guy
Oyster's pearl can hide from pryin' guys
