Whale Mountain looked like a whale |
|
Large and round with a waterspout trail |
|
Made of pine tree upside down |
|
So it looked like a spout shooting off of the ground |
|
The ground on top of Whale Mountain that is |
|
Whale Mountain looks like a whale |
|
A curved piece of rock looked just like its tail |
|
When the earth quaked |
|
That tail did shake |
|
And it looked like the whale was swimming |
|
The whale mountain, I mean, was swimming |
|
Drop it all if you want to |
|
I'll see you in the afternoon |
|
Put the past behind you |
|
What a strange cartoon |
|
If it all falls apart though |
|
Someone says "I told you so" |
|
Don't listen to them, throw a coin in the fountain |
|
And meet your old friends on the top of Whale Mountain |
|
Whale Mountain is where we'll go |
|
He had a band and practice space |
|
A studio with microphones |
|
So it's no wonder you've written songs that everyone knows |
|
You had an agent, a gig, a promo photograph to make it all come together |
|
So you trade a sweatshirt in for leather |
|
You can't be a shepherd if you don't have a flock |
|
You can't wear the shoe unless you put on the sock |
|
There's nothing to do but trade your stock |
|
No you can't start the spark without a rock |
|
And you can't start a spark without a rock |
