Lyrics

[00:00.240] It was time to move on
[00:01.970] 70 miles to the east,
[00:03.880] they reached the island of Liapari in the central Solomons
[00:07.450] Once more, they were regaled by stories of giant crocodiles
[00:11.530] But there were words of warning
[00:13.310] Unnerved by tales of man-eating crocs,
[00:16.520] Mark and Wade headed off in search of the crocodile lake
[00:20.310] On the way, they passed some sinister sights
[00:23.830] A skull shrine - evidence of the island's head-hunting past
[00:28.120] Reaching the lake, Wade and Mark edged as close as they dared
[00:32.400] Would they see any of these legendary crocs?
[00:35.460] That afternoon,
[00:36.150] Wade got his first shot of a modestly sized, two-metre crocodile
[00:40.800] Despite camping out for three days, they failed to spot anything larger
[00:44.980] Whatever big crocs were out there did not materialise
[00:49.100] It was beginning to feel like a wild croc chase,
[00:51.670] but they decided to push on to new islands
[00:54.810] A hundred miles east, they dropped anchor in Marovo Lagoon
[00:59.640] Wade explored the maze of mangroves - prime crocodile country
[01:04.320] They called in at the local village
[01:06.040] to ask their advice on where to stake out
[01:08.500] discovering worrying signs of big crocodiles at large
