Steam Powered Giraffe - Sky Sharks Lyrics
Down from the sky
Go run and hide
From their catastrophic path
Big teeth in jaws, that’s what we saw
And now they’ve chomped my car in half
They look totally crazy
Their wings are superimposed
What kind of god is so lazy
How can we hide?
How can we survive
Flying Cartilaginous Genocide?
Be wary of the Sky Sharks
They want to nom on your blood
If you want to have a future
Heed my warning or you'll lose it
Run and hide and fight another day
Practice cardio, increase your pace
Preserve your human race
Lets run away
Yes, lets run away
The Sky Sharks are here to stay
Now they’re eating all our fried fish
And all the seafood that no one will miss
Of every Long John Silver tartar sauce
We tried to stop them but they’re too quick
Dodged every whiffle ball and wooden stick
Well what else can we throw their way
How ‘bout that copy of 50 Shades of Grey?
I wish there was a formula
Of extra-special things to drive them away.
But instead we'll need some legs
So grab your sneakers and flee the fray
[Prof:] A reign of terror flying past
Look up in the sky, flying shark
Teeth like knives that bite in half
Things get weird. I take up the slack
I’m the man for the job or I’ll eat my hat
Laser-guided orcas live without water
Fitted with wings, engines, mortars
Old-fashioned grit and I fire like this
“Let me try” -oh I insist!
Aim, fire, strike with a tiny risk-
Oh blimey, spoke too soon- I missed
Shark repellent is ineffective
London's done for chums, I’ve wrecked it
Sharks are landing, grey and vicious
On the other hand this hat tastes delicious
[Rabbit:] Well, we’ve tried everything, what else can we do?
[Hatchworth:] I hear there’s still safe houses left in Old Peru
[Spine:] Please heed our warning, these sharks will never tire
[Hatchworth:] Wait a second, hold on, did anyone think about using… fire?
[Rabbit:] Huh… fire.
Hey Hatchworth, hand me that stick over there
Professor, do you have a lighter?
[Professor:] Oh yes I’ve got one here, there you go
[Rabbit:] Thanks.
Back, back!
That’s a bad sky shark!
Back, back!
Oh my gosh, it’s working! Ah it’s working, guys!
They’re leaving! We’ve done it! We’ve done it!
Spread the word, guys, they don’t like fire!
[Crier:] They hate fire, spread the word!
So be wary of the Sky Sharks
They want to nom on your blood
If you want to have a future
Heed my warning or you'll lose it
Please avoid their dreaded eye ray
Run and hide and fight another day
Practice cardio, increase your pace
Let’s preserve the human race

Steam Powered Giraffe Sky Sharks Comments
Can I just say that "preserve *your* human race" smacked me in tf he face
These guy's rock
Gosh these lyrics makes me laugh, great job Bunny!
This is such a strange song... I love it.
sharknado???? xD So lovely music <3
Does this happen in the timeline with the Daughter of Space? Since there's no Commander Cosmo people would rely on the Steam Powered Giraffe robots instead. Oh great song! Not on my top but still good!
Flying Sharks, doo-doo doo doo doo-doo...
If you happen to read this
Have a nice day.
This hat is delicius
Skybite terrorize
Pe and spg ? Its steampunk mania
Rabbit actually sounded a bit sorry..
What
The
Fuck
welcome to MK III
I absolutely love this song. the " wait what?" at the end it perfectly timed.
Is is just me or is it always London that is getting invaded by some alien or other worldly creature?
Aly May That’s why I moved :p
That's why I wanna move there xD
where are the daleks?
*This was the song that turned me gay for Rabbit-*
The one SPG song I don't like that much.
the perfect song doesn't exis-
*casually eating hat*
That is so hilarious! The end bit with Rabbit! Lol.
Hands down best track in the album (Alongside "Progress and Technology" and maybe "The Pulls".)
"Their wings are superimposed, what kind of god is so lazy?" Pure lyrical genius.
Is it bad that I loved both SPG and professor elemental before this?
I hope they have a movie for their Robot-sonas at some point... No matter if there's a plot, it'd be surely hilarious.
they technically did it was during jons time there
Really? What is it called or does it go by the same name as the song?
I'm from Peru and here we have safe houses.
Don't forget we come in at the last moment and shoot things with our laser vision.
plus furries?
Why does Rabbit need a stick and lighter when she has a flamethrower mouth?
BlackMania given she’s prone to malfunctioning...it’s best to use the stick...
Wait, What?
*Warning:* Don't sing this song at the beach.
It freaks people out. (<.<) (>.>) Learned that the hard way.
Pfft no you COWARD.
*BLAST IT. BLAST THE SONG. But if life guards come then turn it off because you don't wanna be rude ^^*
Hehe this is coming from a person that wouldn't blast anything at the beach... Sorry for disturbing the serenity of the comment
Wait. Why did Rabbit need a stick on fire? Was the flamethrower malfunctioning?
This is still such a bop
this should have had a music video--I think it would have been mindblowingly *EPIC*. (and so cool, etc, etc. :P )seriously. I can see it all happening in my head as I listen to it right now.
who would honestly give rabbit fire?
I swear I heard core from Portal.
who says "Wait, what?" at the end?
adeadfreelancer
Isabella/rabbit
~insert Beavis laughing and saying "fire, fire, fire!" here~
HAS NOBODY NOTICED YET THAT THE GUITAR RIFF SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE TUNAK TUNAK?!?!
Ok, I understand p.elemental is not Bunny but in this case it seems, according to Isabella at the bottom of this thread, that Bunny did a Prof. ELemental impersonation to begin this song and then possibly the later rap section. I am still questioning who is whom(?)
Oh those are DEFINITELY consorts!
Flying Cartilaginous Genocide could be a band name in itself, I've never heard such an epic concept. PS. The southern hemisphere will miss the seafood.
okay, i made a joke about this song being inspired by syfy shark films, but i've come to find out THERE'S A MOVIE ABOUT SKYSHARKS. how many shark themed movies could there possibly be?!
Oh, mah goodies, I've just played this for my Youngest and he cannot stop giggling out, "dreaded eye ray". This song is a bright spot in our rather horrid September. Big thanks, SPG, and big hugs.
so sky sharks don't like the song Fire, fire? Why not? It's so good.
The explosion that happened in that song is probably why they're fleeing space in the first place
Isabella you are so amazing! :)
There's a movie coming out in 2017 called skysharks...
Does this song have anything to do with the 2017 movie sky sharks?
funny thing is that this was probably made before the movie was thought of...
@Suzzy Flowers ikr?
One of my faves
At first I as like "Ya Professor Elemental!" then I was like "Oh god Rabbit has fire.... run!"
The really scary thing is that Rabbit already has a built-in flamethrower. Run for the hills!! 😲
I was listening to the soundtrack while playing space engineers. I heard this song and I just let my ship fall to the planet surface because this song takes priority.
I too listen to this album well space engineering!
they should sing this in the theme of Skyfall
this song still feels like it was made for the sharknado films even more when i figure in that it was posted within days of the premiere of sharknado 4
Rabbit's ending narration here never fails to slay me. Seriously.
Forget global warming, we need to burn the forests because we have flying sharks!
....you guys were watching the syfy channel when you thought of this song weren't you?
i was it was cheesy shark movies all week i love that type of movie
Does this remind anyone else of "Muse"? I really enjoyed this one.
Oh, absolutely.
So i guess the sky sharks don't like fire fire
I used to be a fan
Now I'm an air conditioner :)
Your comment is so precious I love you
I was expecting "I still am" but that still does work, good job (I guess?)
OH MY GOD I WANT TO HIT YOU! but that was amazing, so you get a high-five instead
I used to like tractors, now i'm an extractor fan.
There isn't a word for how utterly charming this song is.
WHOAAAAAA, AMAZING!!! When can we expect the album in Spotify?
Sky Sharks? Sounds like something from The Aquabats! They do have the Shark Fighter after all.
You know this song was inspired by Sharknado!
thats what i thought (like your profile pic by the way m8)
Actually, originally it was about tripods but t they couldn't do that because of copyright reasons
One of my favorites! Made me giggle so hard the first time! Still does actually, devoted so much drive time to learning the words!
I think this is my favorite song so far from this sound track
now that you're adding The Vice Quadrant to Youtube, would you consider adding the album to google play?
It's been on there for quite a while now actually. I was waiting for it too and it just showed up
+Vincent wow it is, thanks. last I heard they were avoiding it because they made less money on the play store versus alternatives, guess they changed their minds.
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG PROF. ELEMENTAL AND SPG!? THIS IS A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN. THANK YOU SPG. THANK YOU. IT'S BEUTIFUL.
fabulous! my new favorite song, me thinks.
Just when I think I am tired of listening to the same shit, Steam Powered Girrafe puts Sky Sharks on YouTube.
1 year later, I know, I hope you've listened to the rest of their stuff!
this song was about sharknado
@Suzzy Flowers awesome! what is it about?
It REALLY wasn't.
Then why didn’t they use fire in the first one?
This song predicted Sharknado 5: Global Swarming
"Wait, what?" XD
Was that the Vice which does Tight?
prof elemental remember me of whitley, amazing song by the way
oh goodness im early... but I love it😊 keep up the good work my dudes
SSSKKYYYYYYYY SSHHHHAAAARRRRKKKSS!
Like War of the Worlds...... with sharks!
slaying
Sky Sharks should be an interesting Doctor Who episode :B
well there were Sky Sharks in an episode in fact it was one of their Christmas specials lol
this song sounds like a doctor who
true tho
I think they already did that, but not attacking London, hold on, SPG-Doctor Who crossover would be neat
@Thomas O'Connor would make a good comic tbh
Prof. Elemental: Wait What!
+Isabel Rojas I don't think they were talking about you.
Isabella is Bunny's name. She's got an AWESOME range (the ups and downs her voice can go)... Spine too. I can't get enough! <3
Isabella is Prof. Elemental? I don't grok.
+Ken Ray Wilemon nuuu Professor Elemental is an actual steam punk artist too! His real name is Paul Alborough. You probably figured that out about now but yeah hehe XD take care :)
I loved this song when you sung a snip on a twitch stream I was laughing so much but you should totally make a video for this! that would be cool but I understand your all soo busy!!
*all soo busy making more music! sorry it sent to soon haha
Making amazing music at that!
i can work on an animation but i need help :(
this is great
so far this is my favourite song in this album :)
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS ONE FOR SO LONG AHHH
Oh my gosh I love this song!! It's great 😘
I'm so early oml
oh a sonic fan nice 0w0
