I shall not ever swim in seas that swarm with awful fears I’d never feel at ease in case a great white shark appears But now there’s a laboratory that can cure my woes They bring back long dead creatures and, I’m told, everything goes I don’t care what it costs to bring back the megalodon This massive shark ate everything and great whites would be gone So bring back the megalodon to eat all those great whites Then I can skinny dip again, quite safe, on moonlit nights It took some time but it’s been done; the Meg now rules the waves He’s eaten all the creature that sent swimmers to their graves So now I swim with confidence; the Meg’s been back awhile And look, I see one coming… don’t you love that gaping smile

lol Terry. What makes you feel secure that the Meg won't find you a tasty appetizer? I have a fear of what lurks beneath the surface. As long as those sharp tooth creatures stay off the land, I'll stay out of their waters. We may have to find a way to live with dire wolves and Mammoths. One question to those scientists... Why?
