Shark’s in the House

[by the Bungee Jumpin’ Cows]

Topic: Natural history of sharks

Summary: Ice-Mel finds it hard to be cool as he raps to a hungry shark he encounters at sea.

There's miles of ocean underneath me

What's messin' with my mind is that I just can't see

What's down below lookin' up at me

Thinkin' of what a tasty meal I could be

From out of the depths torpedo slippin' through the blue

Them beady black eyes have a great view

Of me with my little legs adanglin', don't want a manglin'

From you an unscheduled rendezvous

How do you do? You cordon bleu

No way - uh, uh - I'm outa here

And let me make one thing perfectly clear

You see when it comes to sharks and my backside

You call me chicken, I'll say "yeah, Kentucky Fried"

Chorus: Watch out! Watch out! Shark's in the house! (4x)

You been cruisin’ the salty blue H2O

As predator king since 400 million years ago you know

You make no bones about it you ain't got none

You're just a cartilage creature causin' 911's,

You're no fun at a party, cause you feed in that frenzied way

Can't take you anywhere, just leave me outa your buffet

And don't smile at me with those steak knives

Your conveyor belt teeth they ruin skin dives

You know what I'm sayin'? I wanna stay alive, but you know right where I'm at

Your sensory could locate me in nothin' flat

Look, when the scene is marine, I’m a lousy source of protein

So save your guillotine, I’m just lean cuisine

Chorus

What kind of a shark are you? I wanna know before I die

Some sharks can terrify, but some are plain shy

Carcaradon Megalodon could eat a car they say

So what are you a hammerhead, Great White or San Jose?

You must be 50 feet long and weigh 20 tons

A whale of a shark comin' at me I know I'm done for

Say what, Mr. Big stuff

You eat plankton and that's enough?

I was scared for nothin' guess it's true what they say

Sharks they prefer much more tasty prey - they're gourmet

Now it's true there's a few that might take a bite

But for most a human sandwich spoils their appetite

You sharks are all right, I guess you have your place

So live long and prosper, but stay outa my face!

Chorus (2x)

Hey you with the dorsal, I ain't your morsel

You can just take your slicin' and dicin' bootay someplace else

Uh oh, here comes el fin
