Whale Song Lyrics

Way way back in 1694, I was a dweller on the banks of the Pacific Northwestern Shore

I was a hummin with the whales before the ships came, didn't have a care to even know my name

In came some mean ole boys in the night, with a real big appetite

They didn't ask but they were here to stay, spears jabbed the whales and took my family away

I saw red and from grace I fell, blew those boys straight to hell

Dark crimson rosie, sweet lullaby

Dark crimson rosie, sweet lullaby

Dark crimson rosie, sweet lullaby

Dark crimson rosie sweet lullaby cross my heart and hope to die

If I could only remember heaven I would tell you what it's like

Woke up in 1992 in the red white and blue crew

In the burbs thought I heard, a message coming through

Went to school became a fool, caught a real bad case of the blues had to pay some dues

Way down deep in the ocean of my wild chilly soul

Felt the fear and oh my death, started digging a hole

Saw the blue star and oh muladhara froze into an icey cold bowl I didn't know

American and my wheels don't spin started shooting heroin

Rode a horse to the source, cast down in Kensington

Great escape wide awake, the walls cave on in hear the splash of the whale fin

Averted disaster and a reiki master put her hands on me

If not for superstition she had a vision I was living by the sea

Oh my a different time, a different body but the same old me

Doomed to be free

Doomed to be free hell ya

Doomed to be free hell ya

Doomed to be free hell ya

Hell ya

Doomed to be free hell ya

Doomed to be free hell ya

Doomed to be free hell ya

Hell ya

Blue whale swimming all up and down my lifetimes

With every island I hear your tune

When my island days are over

Back to the ocean I'll go and be with you

Blue whale swimming all up and down my lifetimes

With every island I hear your tune

When my island days are over

Back to the ocean I'll go and be with you

Ya back to the ocean I'll go and be with you

Honey back to the ocean I'll go and be with you
