 Selfish Shellfish

Javier, Kate and Edith:

We are the selfish shellfish

And we are crabby, just like you

We always say, no I won’t share it

I want to have it and keep it too

 

Javier:

I’m Javier and I

Won’t share my seaweed pie

With anyone else not even

My best friend Steven

 

Kate:

I’m Kate and I just hate

To share what’s on my plate

I have to have the last crumb

I’ll eat the tail of a snail or a guppy’s thumb

 

Edith:

I’m Edith, I always whine

No, No that’s mine, all mine.

I would keep this song for me, oh

But it’s a rotten trio!

 

Javier, Kate and Edith:

We are the selfish shellfish

And we are crabby, just like you

We always say, no I won’t share it

I want to have it and keep it too

 

(Each repeats solo verse)

 

Javier, Kate and Edith:

We are the selfish shellfish

And we are crabby, just like you

We are the selfish shellfish

Javier, Kate and Edith, too!
