"Hammerhead Shark" lyrics - DAVID LEE ROTH

"Hammerhead Shark"

It was a time of trouble
And a time of grief
Kings lay with whores
And begat thieves
Yeah the world was wicked
And their hearts were cold
Noah said to his missus
Well, it's time to go
Lord said to Noah
'Fore ya float that arc
You better save me a space
For my hammerhead shark
Whoa yeah, the Hammerhead Shark
Now, now now Johnny liked to drink and fight
And he raised big hell every Saturday night

When the sheriff found him
Nearly broken in two
Sheriff said to Johnny
Well, I think I know who
If he had teeth like knives
And skin like bark
You musta rumbled it up
With a Hammerhead Shark
Mmm, the Hammerhead Shark
A woman went to court
Entered her plea
Said, "Keep my husband away from me...
He don't understand what a man should know
By the time I could teach him
He'd be far too old!
Judge I found a lover ain't afraid of the dark
Honey, I'm in love with a Hammerhead Shark"

Hammerhead Shark
Watch me know, watch me know
(Here he comes)
Take it easy baby, Take it easy
(Here he comes)
Watch me know, watch me know
(Here he comes)
Wow!

Over there, over there!
Women all over, cross the USA
Got spoiled to death in the hammerhead way
President went to Congress, here's what he said:
"Gentlemen, our honor has been betrayed!
We're in deep, deep water, 'less I missed my mark
Put out an APB on the Hammerhead Shark!"

Wow!
A woman went to court
Entered her plea
Said, "Keep my husband away from me...
He don't understand what a man should know
By the time I could teach him
He'd be far too old!"
Beep bop belula bitty bop shoo wow!
I found a lover ain't afraid of the dark
Honey, I'm in love with a Hammerhead Shark

Whoa, the Hammerhead Shark
Wow!
Yeah, the Hammerhead Shark
Ooo, the hammer, hammerhead
Swim away baby!
Just a Hammerhead Shark
Shake it baby
Swim a lil faster, mama
Just a Hammerhead Shark
Just a shark on the street mama
