They say that in 1842 on a plantation in | |
Alabama The slaves unearthed a huge skeleton, the bones of a giant whale, a leviathan, from the time when all the world was covered with water from the | |
Andes to the | |
Himalayas and even | |
Alabama was deep down under. | |
And the slaves looked at the huge bones and they said: | |
These must be the bones of a fallen angel | |
These must be the bones of a fallen angel | |
Out on the ocean, out of the water | |
We look for signs of him | |
He looks like a giant snow hill, a fountain | |
Then he disappears. | |
He's a speck on the horizon | |
We see him only in parts | |
The flash of a tail, his beating heart. | |
He's in pieces and parts. | |
It's easier for a camel to slide through the eye of a needle | |
Than to find a whale who hides at the bottom of the ocean | |
It's easier to sail around the world in a coffee cup | |
Than to see a whale when he comes rising up | |
We see him only in parts | |
A fountain, fins, a speck on the horizon | |
Giant teeth, an open mouth | |
Look out, look out, look out, look out | |
So hit an elephant with a dart and he just reaches around and pulls it out with his trunk | |
But hit a whale in the hear and the whole ocean turns red, | |
It turns red. | |
We see him only in parts | |
The flash of a tail, his beating heart | |
He's in pieces and parts | |
So get hit in your head | |
And there may be a few things you can't recall at all | |
But you get hit in your heart | |
And you're in pieces and parts | |
Pieces and parts. |
