《Chivalrous Man Eating Shark》歌词

[00:00:07] The most chivalrous fish of the ocean

[00:00:10] To ladies forbearing and mild

[00:00:13] Though his record be dark

[00:00:14] Is the man-eating shark

[00:00:16] Who will eat neither woman nor child

[00:00:20] He dines upon seamen and skippers

[00:00:23] And tourists his hunger assuage

[00:00:26] And a fresh cabin boy

[00:00:27] Will inspire him with joy

[00:00:28] If he's past the maturity age

[00:00:33] A doctor a lawyer a preacher

[00:00:35] He'll gobble one any fine day

[00:00:38] But the ladies God bless them

[00:00:40] He'll only address them

[00:00:41] Politely and go on his way

[00:00:45] L can readily cite you an instance

[00:00:48] Where a lovely young lady of Breem

[00:00:51] Who was tender and sweet

[00:00:53] The delicious to eat

[00:00:54] Fell into the bay with a scream

[00:00:58] She struggled and flounced in the water

[00:01:01] And signaled in vain for her bark

[00:01:04] And she'd surely been drowned

[00:01:05] If she hadn't been found

[00:01:07] By a chivalrous man-eating shark

[00:01:11] He bowed in a manner most polished

[00:01:14] Thus soothing her impulses wild

[00:01:17] Don't be frightened he said

[00:01:18] I've been properly bred

[00:01:20] And I eat neither woman nor child

[00:01:24] Then he proffered his fin and she took it

[00:01:27] Such a gallantry none can dispute-

[00:01:29] And the passengers cheered

[00:01:31] As the vessel they neared

[00:01:32] And a broadside was fired in salute

[00:01:36] And they soon stood alongside the vessel

[00:01:39] When a life-saving dinghy was lowered

[00:01:42] With the pick of the crew

[00:01:44] And her relatives too

[00:01:45] And the mate and the skipper aboard

[00:01:48] So they took her aboard in a jiffy

[00:01:51] And the shark stood at attention the while

[00:01:54] Then he raised on his flipper

[00:01:55] And ate up the skipper

[00:01:57] And went on his way with a smile

[00:02:01] Now this shows that the prince of the ocean

[00:02:04] To ladies forbearing and mild

[00:02:06] Though his record be dark

[00:02:08] The man-eating shark

[00:02:10] Who will eat neither woman nor child
