I Think We Need A Bigger Boat Lyrics

Going skinny dipping

In the Atlantic Ocean

Can lead to corpses found

Eaten, rotting, and bloated

Closing down the shores

Is the only solution

To keep the beaches free

From severed limb pollution

The mayor doesn't find this

Suggestion funny

All he wants to save is

All that tourism money

But then a boy gets killed

By rows of endless shark teeth

The price of greed and ignorance

Was never this steep

A tiger shark is caught

But Brody still needs convincing

That it's the one guilty

Of the thrashing and mincing

A quick dissection proves

That this isn't our attacker

This small shark was merely used

As a fear distractor

A fisherman's corpse is found

Along with his boat

Even then the mayor

Doesn't really take note

The beach is packed during

The July 4th celebration

Which leads to wanton death

And bloody evisceration

Brody hits the surf with his

New drinking buddies

In hopes that they can keep

Their beaches safe and not bloody

The giant shark sets out to make

Them all her next dinner.

Thankfully our man is still an

Excellent swimmer.

Quint is gone so now it's down

To Brody and Hooper.

A tag team armed with guns

And a tank for some scuba

The two men were destined

To wash out like beach erosion

Instead, they blow the shark up

In a chunky explosion.
