Split Enz – Shark Attack lyrics
(T Finn) - True Colours
-==================================-

Loves got teeth and she bites so hard
Leaving you for dead like a deadly shark
And she doesn't leave a lot to be saved

I was swimming in the harbour of your smile
Splashing in the ocean like a child
I didn't know what dangers lurked there
Just beyond the waves
Shark attack!

Well she chewed me up and she spat me out
I didn't want to meet a maneater
Shark attack!

Please don't mess around with me
I'm a shark fatality, in the sea
I'm the one with the bleeding heart
I thought you were a real lifesaver
And life for once would do me a favour
But babys just a butcher, and her teeth are razor sharp
Shark attack!

Well she chewed me up and she spat me out
I didn't want to meet a maneater
Shark attack!

And I'm lost at sea and I'm an amputee
And there was slaughter in the water when I fought her
Shark attack!

Hey!... Hey!.... Hey!..... Hey!!

Shark attack!

Well she chewed me up and she spat me out
I didn't want to meet a maneater
Shark attack!

Well I'm lost at sea and I'm an amputee
And there was slaughter in the water when I fought her
Shark attack!

Shark Attack! [repeatedly]

[Neil:] Thank you
