Just one more, eh?

I was in the Rossvale Aquarium yesterday with Mark and Carly, and there were two awesome Moray Eels. I have always loved Morays, and was delighted when Carly burst into a parody about Morays (sung to the tune of Dean Martin's That's amore). She couldn't recall all the lyrics, so I searched the web and this is the funniest version I found, so I'll search no more, eh?





When you meet a big eel, and its teeth are like steel... that's a Moray.
If it's big and it's mean, and all slimy and green... that's a Moray.
If it looks like a snake, with a gape like a rake... that's a Moray.
If he's fanning his gills, better head for the hills... that's a Moray!

When you're diving at night, and you feel a sharp bite... that's a Moray.
Put your hand in the crack and you won't get it back... that's a Moray.
It runs you out of depth, so you run short of breath... that's a Moray.
Then it hits all your fingers, with teeth that are stingers... that's a Moray!

So you scream, and you beg, but it still bites your leg... that's a Moray!
Then it bites on your thumb, takes a chunk off your bum... that's a Moray!
When the eel in the reef, has your junk in its teeth... that's a Moray!
So you blubber and scream, just like in, a bad dream... that's a Moray!!!

And when you've had enough, of this grim, grizzly stuff...
S - I - N - G... NO MORE! eh?

Hahaha... this version is much more clever than my feeble attempt :)

Haha, Carly. In your defence, I had to dig around the 'net for a while to find a version this good. You managed it impromptu.
