Biography:
Steam Powered Giraffe (SPG) is an American steampunk musical comedy project formed in San Diego in 2008, self-described as "a musical act that combines robot pantomime, puppetry, ballet, comedy, projections, and music". Created and led by identical twins David Michael Bennett and Isabella "Bunny" Bennett, the act combines music and improvisational comedy on-stage, although their studio works focus almost solely on music.
Steam Powered Giraffe has its own fictional mythology

Fm
Down from the sky
Go run and hide
Ab
From their catastrophic path
Bbm
Big teeth in jaws, That’s what we saw
C
And now they’ve chomped my car in half
Fm
They fly in the sky
Ab
They look totally crazy
Fm
Their wings are superimposed
Ab
What kind of god is so lazy
Fm
How can we hide?
Abm
How can we survive
Bb C
Flying Cartilaginous Genocide?
Fm
So be wary of the Sky Sharks
C
They want to nom on your blood
Bbm
If you want to have a future
Ab C
Heed my warning or you'll lose it
Fm
And please avoid their dreaded eye ray
C
Run and hide and fight another day
Bbm
Practice cardio, increase your pace
Ab C
Preserve your human race
Fm
Lets run away
Bbm Fm
Yes, lets run away
Bbm C
The Sky Sharks are here to stay
Fm
Now they’re eating all our fried fish
C
And all the seafood that no one will miss
Bbm
Hundreds of grandparents mourn the loss
Ab C
Of every Long John Silver tartar sauce
Fm
We tried to stop them but they’re too quick
C
Dodged every whiffle ball and wooden stick
Bbm
Well what else can we throw their way
Ab C
How ‘bout that copy of 50 Shades of Grey?
Bbm Fm
I wish there was a formula
Bbm Ab C
Of extra-special things to drive them away.
Bbm Fm
But instead we'll need some legs
Bbm Ab C
So grab your sneakers and flee the fray
Prof:
Fm
A reign of terror flying past
Ab
When I first heard I had quite a laugh
Bbm
Look up in the sky, flying shark
C
Teeth like knives that bite in half
Fm
Things get weird. I take up the slack
Ab
I’m the man for the job or I’ll eat my hat
Bbm
Laser-guided orcas live without water
C
Fitted with wings, engines, mortars
Fm
Old-fashioned grit and I fire like this
Ab
“Let me try” -oh I insist!
Bbm
Aim, fire, strike with a tiny risk-
C
Oh blimey, spoke too soon- I missed
Fm
Shark repellent is ineffective
Ab
London's done for chums, I’ve wrecked it
Bbm
Sharks are landing, grey and vicious
C
On the other hand this hat tastes delicious
Fm Ab
Rabbit: Well, we’ve tried everything, what else can we do?
Fm Ab
Hatchworth: I hear there’s still safe houses left in Old Peru
Fm Ab
Spine: Please heed our warning, these sharks will never tire
Bbm
Hatchworth: Wait a second, hold on, did anyone think about
C
using… fire?
Fm
So be wary of the Sky Sharks
C
They want to nom on your blood
Bbm
If you want to have a future
Ab C
Heed my warning or you'll lose it
Fm
And please avoid their dreaded eye ray
