Holy shit! Get out of the water! It’s a shark! Oh my god, man, swim! I worry for your safety, this is gonna be a slaughter! Holy fuck, I saw it’s fin, how does it move so fast? Transport me back to being tucked in, this moment can’t be my last. The man’s still swimming, but the shark is still winning. He’s circling the guy, just toying with him, it’s chilling. This big great white Has us in its sights We can’t back down The only way out is to fight. Out of the water came its big jaws Couldn’t believe what I saw Rows of teeth, gnashing, ten feet from the boat it was splashing. It came down hard, I couldn’t see the man. And then I saw the thrashing. The shark swam away, but it wasn’t done with its prey. This was only the start of its charade. This big great white Has us in its sights We can’t back down The only way out is to fight The man came to, and begged for me to help. I did all that I could do, he couldn’t help himself. I threw him the life ring and all the rope best I could, but a sinking feeling fell I feared there was no hope. He was sure to lose his life, I could tell. I figured it was time to grab the gun, maybe it could help, but the shark somehow withstood every blow I had dealt. It zigged and zagged through the water, even if I had it tagged my aim couldn’t have been stronger. Just then he popped up, and in his mouth again The man wailed and flailed, never to be seen, as the shark made its descent. This big great white Has us in its sights We can’t back down The only way out is to fight I manned the harpoon, but he wasn’t done feeding. He circled the boat, and my heart much harder was beating. I had one shot, I knew I should take it. Shot the artillery in his eye, but still the man could not escape it. He was gone, but not in vain The shark moved on but still attached to my chain. I kicked it into high gear, and somehow caught up to the beast. I jumped overboard, with my knife between my teeth. I wrapped myself around the soon to be meat and from my mouth the knife was unsheathed. I took out his other eye, surely he was done for, but he wasn’t going down without a fight, even without sight to attack once more. This big great white Has us in its sights We can’t back down The only way out is to fight With what little energy he had left, he came at me swift. He jumped over the boat, but I was ready for this. I held my knife up high and grazed the stomach just right. Then it was gutted on the deck, right in front of my sight. Farewell to the fallen, your struggles have been avenged. I saw remains of my friend, some shirt scraps in a blend. The wretched monster had been slain, it was finally the end. Then out on the horizon, my eyes were surely deceiving me. I saw a much bigger fin, and even brighter gleaming teeth. I think that could be the mother, surely I contend. She must be three times the killer, to which the first shark would depend. This big great white Has us in its sights We can’t back down The only way out is to fight.
