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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The delicious to eat [00:00:53]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

And the passengers cheered [00:01:29]

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

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

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

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

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

And her relatives too [00:01:44]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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