A Marine Biologist
Doctor, Captain T.O. Vess
R.V. Steadfast bearing west
He’s got a bathyscaphe
(Tim was the man with the bathyscaphe)
He’s a marine biologist
(Tim was the man, there was never any better around)
Slid with the squid underneath the waves
Architeuthis lean and fast
Show us your sublime buccal mass
He’s got a bathyscaphe
(Tim was the man with the bathyscaphe)
He’s a marine biologist
(Tim was the man, there was never any better around)
Slid with the squid underneath the waves
Come along to the Mesopelagic
We can frolic where the corals abound
If the cads with the benthic trawlers haven't passed
By the time we get down
Collect the specimens and illustrate 'em--
Oh, well, as best as you can
Bring 'em up, lay 'em out
Look 'em up, write 'em down
And you can publish your findings
In a peer-reviewed journal
He’s got a bathyscaphe
(Tim was the man with the bathyscaphe)
A keen marine biologist
(Tim was the man, there was never any better around)
Slid with the squid underneath the waves
He’s got a bathyscaphe
(Tim was the man with the bathyscaphe)
A mean marine biologist
(Tim was the man, there was never any better around)
Slid with the squid underneath the waves
