Hive Open Mic 274: "Reggae Shark" by The Key of Awesome

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=zitalovee/gfufyjjrpx Hola Fellow Music stars!! It is yet another cycle of the Hive Open Mic, and I am elated. This week's theme was something alright. 'Mermaid', I mean my mind first flew to the movie "Little Mermaid" but I had already sang their iconic song. So I instead chose to go down memory lane. And my mind managed to dig up a song I hadn't heard since 2016; when it was first introduced to me through an internet video. I remember being obsessed with the song: Reggae shark. It told the story of this very cool Rastafarian Shark. He was once human and was cursed by a jelly fish😅 who transformed him into a shark. Pretty funny story. Anyways, I thought, Mermaids + Sharks = Sea Creatures so why not use the opportunity to share with you guys this amazing song piece. God bless you as you listen! Lyrics Gonna tell you da story of a Reggae Shark There are hundreds of Sharks livin' under da sea Great Whites, Hammerheads and White Tip Reefs But the one shark discovery always leave out Is the dreadlock Rasta fish I'm talkin' about Reggae Shark is real (Reggae Shark!) Him got a band with the seals (Reggae Shark!) He don't want to harm ya (Reggae Shark!) He just want your ganja After dark, Reggae Shark come cruisin' Some say Reggae Shark's part human Him was cursed by an evil Jelly Witch Didn't have no reason, she was just a bitch Some kids were boatin' and smokin' a spliff Reggae Shark swam over to ask for a hit The kids start screamin' and one of them drowned Now the sheriff and his posse gonna hunt him down Got no political agenda (Reggae Shark!) He just wants redemption (Reggae Shark!) And he also wants ganja But you can't light a spliff when you live underwater One day a drug boat had to drop its load Reggae Shark come along and him eat it whole Now he's starvin' like marvin', got the munchies Then him see the evil sheriff and all his flunkies He put his fins in the air and said, "It wasn't me fault!" But the sheriff said "fire" and the rifles shot But it was just a shark decoy tied to a raft 'Cause the Reggae Shark's a master of da arts and crafts (Reggae Shark!) He jumped on the boat And the sheriff fell down his throat The townspeople cheered and said, "You brought us peace You took a bite of corruption in the town police" They threw him a huge ticker tape parade 'Cause they know that he balances the food chain They gave him the key to Kingstontown You should see the tourism he brings in now "You redeemed yourself, " said the Jelly Witch Me can reverse that curse and grant your wish Him looked at the witch, and he say, "nay" 'Cause I'm a Reggae Shark and that's the way I'll stay!" Reggae Shark! (Reggae Shark, Reggae Shark) Reggae Shark! (Reggae Shark, Reggae Shark) The key of Awesome Source: Musixmatch <iframe width="640" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/A3ytTKZf344" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" frameborder="0" > Uploaded using 3Speak Mobile App
