Just Another Average Day

I’m minding my own business, swimming around
When all of a sudden a dark map appears over the reef
Shh don’t make a sound
The long, spotted body of the Hammer Head Shark has approached my home
They have been eating guys like me for years
And he is now threatening my life for the eighth time this week
Every day I have gotten away
I’m too quick for him
I’m stealth like
But he always takes another life
So I have to wonder am I next?
What will it feel like when his sharp teeth impale my chest?
Ya know it’s how my parents went
He even got poor little Jimmy
What a cool kid
Now he’s dead
This anxiety has got to stop!
Maybe I’ll just let him eat me to get it over with
Wait! Here he comes
Stay calm, don’t move
Oh my god he’s coming closer
I’m too young to die!
What was I thinking?
Wait he went the other way
Okay, he’s gone
I guess it’s just another average day
