Okay, I found this song from Dickie Goodman: Mr. Jaws Dickie Goodman (Goodman) Contains samples from: "Dynomite" by Bazuka featuring Tony Camillo "Please Mr. Please" by Olivia Newton-John "How Sweet It Is" by James Taylor "Why Can't We Be Friends?" by War "Get Down Tonight" by K.C. and the Sunshine Band "The Hustle" by Van McCoy "Love Will Keep Us Together" by The Captain and Tennille "Rhinestone Cowboy" by Glen Campbell "One of These Nights" by The Eagles "Jive Talkin'" by The Bee Gees "I'm Not In Love" by 10cc "Midnight Blue" by Melissa Manchester We are here on the beach where a giant shark has just eaten a girl swimmer Well Mr. Jaws, how was it? "Dynomite" And what did she say when you grabbed her? "Please Mr. Please" I know sharks are stupid, but what did you think when you took that first bite? "How sweet it is" Mr. Jaws, before you swim out to sea, have you anything else to say? "Why can't we be friends, why can't we be friends?" With me now is the local sheriff. Sheriff Brody, the shark will be back for lunch. What do you intend to do? "Do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight" Just arriving is oceanographer Matt Hooper. Sir, if someone is attacked by a shark, what should they do? "Do the hustle" We are going aboard the fishing boat of Captain Quint. Captain, will you be able to catch this giant shark? "I will", "I will", "I will" (thank you, captain) "I will" (captain!) "I will" (captain!) "I will" (captain!) When you catch one of these sharks, what do you feel like? "Like a Rhinestone Cowboy" We've just sighted the shark again. He's coming straight for us. Captain Quint is shouting something at him. "Get you baby one of these nights" Hey Jaws, the captain says he's going to catch you. What do you think of that? "Jive talkin'" Uh-oh, here he comes again! (Gun shots) They've hit him! Mr. Jaws, why doesn't anything seem to hurt you? "Big boys don't cry, big boys don't cry" He's coming right onto the boat! Mr. Jaws, why are you grabbing my hand? "Wouldn't you give your hand to a friend?" No wait! Mr. Jaws! That's not the way this record is supposed to end! Help! Help! (Drowning noises) From: "David Hayman"

Oh my....isn't it weird that I was telling my kids about that song just YESTERDAY?

And the similar one with "Sister Mary Elephant," too. (I frowned on that one because I thought it was disrespectful of the Sisters who taught us.)

Mr. Jaws....man, it's been a LOOOOONG time.

Regards,

PS: You know what song I heard the other day? Al Stewart's "The Year of the Cat," with the spoken words at the beginning and everything. It's gotta be a MINIMUM of 20 years since I've heard that one.
