The Thing
Words and Music by Charles R. Grean
Sung by Phil Harris

As I was walking by the beach on one bright, sunny day
I saw a great big, wooden box a floating in the bay
I picked it up and opened it up and what to my surprise
Oh I discovered a (clap* clap* clap*) right before my eyes.
Oh I discovered a (clap* clap* clap*) right before my eyes.

I picked it up and ran to town as happy as a king
I took it to a man I knew who'd buy most anything
And this is what he said to me as I walked in his shop
Oh get out of here with that (clap* clap* clap*) before I call the cop.
Oh get out of here with that (clap* clap* clap*) before I call the cop.
I picked it up and turned around a running for my life.
And then I went to take it home to give it to my wife.
But this is what she said to me as I walked in the door
Oh get out of here with that (clap* clap* clap*) and don't come back no more.
Ih get out of here with that (clap* clap* clap*) and don't come back no more.

The moral of this story is if you are on the beach
And you should see a wooden box and it's within you reach
Don't ever try to pick it up is my advice to you
Cause you'll never get rid of that (clap* clap* clap*) no matter what you do.
Oh you'll never get rid of that (clap* clap* clap*) no matter what you do.
