Don't Pet the Sharks Lyrics

You've saved your money and now you're here in lovely Hawai'i Nei

We welcome you with Aloha and hope you enjoy your stay

We try so hard to set the stage, to make everything so nice

But in a land where everything's overpriced, well here's some free advice

If by chance your jeep should hit a turkey there's no need for a heart attack

If you see feral cats when you're leaving the beach go ahead and toss 'em a snack

If you catch a crab on the lava rocks it's ok, we have a lot

If you accidentally squish a coqui frog don't give it a second thought

But you should probably slow down for the Nene

When you're driving through the National Parks

But whatever you do, we're begging you, with some exclamation marks

Please, oh please, don't pet the sharks

Don't pet the sharks, don't pet the sharks

I'm telling you it's really true their bite is worse than their bark

Don't pet the sharks, don't pet the sharks

There's no better way to ruin your day and it leaves some Permanent marks

Those dried up turtles you see at the beach well they're basking they're not dead

And please enjoy the sound of the birds when you're resting in your morning bed

If you see wild horse at Waipio, all right, it's your lucky day

And you've never danced in the full moon light until you've danced with a manta ray

But you should probably slow down for the Nene

When you're driving through the National Parks

But whatever you do, we're begging you, with some exclamation marks

Please, oh please, don't pet the sharks

Don't pet the sharks, don't pet the sharks

I'm telling you it's really true their bite is worse than their bark

Don't pet the sharks, it's not what we do

Before you post to Instagram, he's gonna swallow you

Don't pet the sharks, don't pet the sharks

I'm telling you it's really true it's the last thing you will do
