A fitting tribute...

...to a beloved subspecies.



(ttto "Blow, Boys, Blow")
(for those unfamiliar with sea shanties, the mp3's found here)

Oh, no more Chinese River Dolphin,
Blow-holes blown;
Boats ran you over far too often,
They slew your bully blow-holes.

Oh, a Yangtze ship zoomin' down the river,
Blow-holes blown;
It's a Yangtze death for a Yangtze Flipper,
It slew your bully blow-hole.

Now, how do you know she's a Yangtze Flipper?
Blow-holes blown;
She looks like a corndog made of silver,
With a bully blow-hole.

Oh noise pollution threw off your sonar.
Blow-holes blown;
Now you're in more pieces than an organ donor,
Where's your bully blow-hole?

Dams built, blood spilt, over-fishin'
Blow-holes blown;
Less accidental, more like a mission,
To slay your bully blow-holes.

'Cause what do you think we had for dinner?
Blow-holes blown;
A dolphin's fins and a monkey's liver,
They stewed your bully blow-holes.

Called extinct, pending investigation.
Blow-holes blown;
Still there's not enough left for repropogation,
So screw your bully blow-holes.
