Mark the Shark
(to the tune of "Sipping Cider")

This song is best sung by two or more people.  The second person or audience repeats each line, then all sing the verse together.

There was a shark. (REPEAT)
His name was Mark. (REPEAT)
His skin was rough. (REPEAT)
(REPEAT VERSE TOGETHER)

He had a fin. (REPEAT)
It helped him swim. (REPEAT)
He swam around. (REPEAT)
And up and down. (REPEAT)
(REPEAT VERSE TOGETHER)

 
His teeth are sharp. (REPEAT)
They help him bite. (REPEAT)
They are serrated. (REPEAT)
Like little knives. (REPEAT)
(REPEAT VERSE TOGETHER)		 Now Mark could smell. (REPEAT)
And I mean well. (REPEAT)
He smelled a fish. (REPEAT)
Oh what a dish. (REPEAT)
(REPEAT VERSE TOGETHER)
Mark has no bones. (REPEAT)
It's cartilage. (REPEAT)
It's in your ears. (REPEAT)
And your nose bridge. (REPEAT)
(REPEAT VERSE TOGETHER)		 Let's say goodbye. (REPEAT)
To Mark the shark. (REPEAT)
He is our friend. (REPEAT)
This is the end. (REPEAT)
(REPEAT VERSE TOGETHER)
