Hammerhead Shark Songtext

von David Lee Roth

It was a time of trouble and a time of grief.
Kings laying with whores and be-gat thiefs.
And the world was wicked and the hearts were cold.
Noah said to his missus: 'Well it's time to go'.
Lord said to Noah: 'Fore you float that ark
You better save me a space for the hammerhead shark
Whoh yeah, the hammerhead shark.

Nananow Johnny was bad, liked to drink and fight.
And he raised big hell every saturday night.
Well the sherrif found him, nearly broken in two.
Sherrif said to Johnny: 'Well I think I know who.'
If he had teeth-like knives and skin like bark
You must have rumbled it up with the hammerhead shark.
Mmm...the hammerhead shark.

A woman went to court, ended hear 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 to old.
Judge, I found a lover who ain't afraid of the dark.
Honey I'm in love with that hammerhead shark!!
Oh...hammerhead shark.

Watch me now, watch me now [here he comes]
Ah take it easy baby, take it easy [here he comes]
Watch me now, watch me now [here he comes]

Women all over 'cross the USA
Got spoiled to death in the hammerhead way.

"Gentlemen our honor has been betrayed."
We're in deep, deep water 'less I miss my mark.
Put out an A.P.B. of the hammerhead shark!
Wow!

A woman went to court, ended hear plea, said:

Judge, I found a lover who ain't afraid of the dark.
Honey I'm in love with my hammerhead shark!!
Oh...the hammerhead shark.
