Whale Tale

Let me tell you a tale
Of a wild ride on the tail
Of a whale

So through the water he splashes
Hither and fro he dashes
Batten down the hatches

I never thought Id ride a whale anywhere
Its fun up in the air
But terrible under the water down there

So up and down I go
For how long I don't know
I just hope he doesn't blow

G'day Timothy … I hope the whale's name isn't Moby Dick or you're in strife - thanks Timothy - Lindsay
