Lyrics[]
Time to hit the surf, ride the wildest waves
On the ugliest board in the USA
Just when I was shootin' the curl
A pack of pups in a hurricane whirl
Well, they shook the shore to a screamin' screech
I think they're takin' over the beach (101)
Surf puppies 101 (101)
Hangin' fun in the summer sun
Catchin' rays, and diggin' the scene
It was a real pooch party if y'know what I mean
There was howlin', and growlin', and plenty of canine fun
With those far out, farm fresh, surf puppies 101
They were slurpin' sodas, chompin' roasted wienies
And playin' tug-o'-war with spring bikinis (yeah)
All their tongues were saggin'; they were drippin' drool
And their tails were waggin', tryin' to keep it cool
They were scratchin' fleas and fetchin' sticks
And hangin' out with the strangest chicks (101)
Surf puppies 101 (101)
Gettin' goofy where the grunion run
Buildin' doghouse castles in the sand
Becomin' one with the sun 'til their tails turn tan
They were hot-spotted, tops, havin' fabulous furry fun
Those far out, farm fresh, surf puppies 101
Those four-footed, fun-lovin' surf puppies 101
