A Whale of a Life

Up from the depths
To breach towards the sky
A cascade of foam
The waters reply

He’ll race to the deep
Playing echo-sound games
Or drift in the gulfstream
Singing Whale song refrains

A whale’s life, a whale’s life..
I wish it were me
But I’m tied to the land
While he roams so free
