"Killer Barracuda" lyrics

"Killer Barracuda"

Look here in the water
See the barracuda
Patient as the devil
Hanging still
Like a shadow in the water
Pretty barracuda
Dagger of the devil
Waiting to kill

Little girl, beware
Of the killer barracuda
He rules these waters
Like a king

He'll cut your heart out
Slicker than a dagger
Not 'cause he's hungry
Just 'cause he's mean

You can see the shark, girl
Gliding through the water
Ugly as death, girl
Eats anything

But the pretty barracuda
Don't touch no garbage
Taking what he wants to
'Cause he's king

You can't scare him
Or entice him
He wouldn't move for the devil
Till his own time
Then, quicker than a heartbeat
He'll turn your way, girl
Just to see you fall
And leave you dying

Little girl, beware
Of the killer barracuda
He rules these waters
Like a king

He'll cut your heart out
Slicker than a dagger
Not 'cause he's hungry
Just 'cause he's mean
