Pierson played the song's bassline on a Korg SB-100 synthesizer in the 1979 version. Instruments used in the music include a baritone-tuned surf-style Mosrite electric guitar, a Farfisa combo organ, and drums. 'Rock Lobster' is written in the key of C minor (with a raised fourth in the chorus) and is in common time. The chorus features Pierson and Wilson singing a long 'ahhh' at an ascending pitch, followed by Schneider exclaiming the phrase 'rock lobster!'.

The song's innuendo-laden lyrics describe a beach party while mentioning both real and imagined marine animals ('There goes a dogfish, chased by a catfish, in flew a sea robin, watch out for that piranha, there goes a narwhal, here comes a bikini whale!'), with absurd noises accompanying each, provided by Kate Pierson on the higher-pitched sounds and Cindy Wilson the lower-pitched ones. The 1979 single version is edited down from the album version, which lasts about seven minutes and contains an additional verse.Īccording to a 'Behind the Vinyl' video with B-52's singer Fred Schneider for CHBM-FM, the song was mostly inspired by the 2001 Club in Atlanta, where instead of having a light show, the club projected a slide show with pictures of puppies, babies, and lobsters on a grill. It has the same lyrics as the re-recorded version, but with more lines during the sequence that lists marine animals. The original DB Records single version has a duration of 4:37, and is faster in tempo and more 'raw' than the 1979 single version, basically due to lower sound quality and the absence of a bassline.
