The Lyrics
summers the time we all ran around
the country roads til we dropped down
summer arrives and beachin' all day
we bathed in the all together
come raft with me
lets float away
i'm flat on my back
with the sun in my eyes
and off i'm thrown
sharkbait my legs are gone
your shocked at the gore
and up you'll throw
a great white
from down be-low
watch the blood flow
watch the blood flow - blood flow
i hate to sink it's dragging me down
and i've fallen by the raft side now
and it's taken my arm and started to chew
and i'm blue
don't chaff on me
just go away
the sharks comming back
has the perfect disguise
chew on my bone
sharkbait i beg and moan
you rip off some more
and "schlup" you go
a bad plight
going down be-low
i don't wanna go
i don't wanna go - be-low
ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah
ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah
the country roads til we dropped down
summer arrives and beachin' all day
we bathed in the all together
come raft with me
lets float away
i'm flat on my back
with the sun in my eyes
and off i'm thrown
sharkbait my legs are gone
your shocked at the gore
and up you'll throw
a great white
from down be-low
watch the blood flow
watch the blood flow - blood flow
i hate to sink it's dragging me down
and i've fallen by the raft side now
and it's taken my arm and started to chew
and i'm blue
don't chaff on me
just go away
the sharks comming back
has the perfect disguise
chew on my bone
sharkbait i beg and moan
you rip off some more
and "schlup" you go
a bad plight
going down be-low
i don't wanna go
i don't wanna go - be-low
ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah
ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah ahhh ah ah

I liked the melancholy feel of this song Tomario.
SOTM - See above.
(SOTM) Completely unfamiliar with TOS, but it sounded cool, if melancholy and almost-Queen like in nature. I'm not really crazy about Keane (always thought they were a C-list Queen, especially in their name and sound). But I liked the shark subject. 344
I agree with Chris, I really don't like Keane.... This song made my Keane Experiance much more liveable.
(SOTM)Was great! 555!
SOTM And I must admit... It was different... 5-5-5
(SOTM) I found this funny, Tomario, with the nonchalant attitude the singer has here about getting ripped to pieces by a shark! "just go away" probably won't save your life, but makes for a great line. I was DKTOS at first, but a quick trip to LimeWire fixed that.
(SOTM) I also DKTOS, but when I found it, I could barely make out the lyrics! Anywho, that was quite a parody, obscure topic and...oh, I can't hold it in...SHARKBAIT! OOH-HA-HA!
(SOTM) Familiarity with the song would help, but a worthy parody, I guess.
(SOTM) oooh, I'm feeling a little bit queasy tomario - a bit close for home for an Australian to read about shark attacks, esp. with summer only days away - and the lovely poetic Huck Finn beginning was very cleverly misleading - 555
Has anyone heard about the guy who got bit by a small shark who wouldn't let go, so he took the shark with him to the doctor's office?---MM
Sorry, Tomario. I DKTOS too. The free-read wasn't very good, but I get the feeling I'd be able to appreciate this more if I found the song. I did enjoy the misleading first stanza.
(SOTM) This is one of those occasions, Tomario, where being familiar with the OS helps lift your appreciation of the parody to another level. Fortunately I know the OS well, annd so enjoyed this immensely. 555
A song with a bit of bite... even if I'm a bit long in the tooth to enjoy Keane ;-)
Good song with a big FIN-ish. Nice job.
SOTM - DKTOS, tragically, but I'm chomping at the bit to find it. *5 minutes later* Wow. What a decidedly weird OS. But your parody matches it very well, right down to the end rhymes.
SOTM: Umm, this wasn't about lawyers?? I am so out of tune with today's youth.. hehe I liked the upbeat lyrics and high spirited mood! Good Job!
