Don’t Go Back In The Water

That’s a cool scar
My friend said over coffee
In his favourite bar
So what happened? he said
Hit by a car
I replied
No hesitation
Looking him straight in the eyes
Actually, not really
I’m kidding
It was a shark
Put my arm in the tank
For a lark
At the sealife centre
A smile danced on his lips
Very funny he said
Putting down money for a tip
Guess it’s a man thing to do
Comparing scars
Yeah I said
We shook hands as a goodbye
He’d rather not know
The truth’s pretty dull
It was just a mole
