Lyrics Dave Dobbyn

Dave Dobbyn

Whaling

sing bravo bravo - you're a brave brave man

i know it's just bravado - you never sink 'cause you

swim

and when your ship can't handle the heavier seas

your spirits will get you through

no down on bended knees

you sing 'save me- save me' - save me from myself

i'm the first to get trigger happy - the first to think

of my own health

cos i'm oh i'm whaling

out on the green - i'll never get used to the sea

but i'm whaling - manning my harpoon

not where i wanted to be - i'm whaling

i feel like jonah - never meaning you no harm

but i'm whaling - next port of call- back in my sweet

baby's arms

in a room - close - savouring our love while we got

rest and recreation

ooh you sing bravo bravo - save me from myself

i'm the first to get trigger happy - the first to think

of my own health

cos i'm oh i'm whaling

out on the green - i'll never get used to the sea

but i'm whaling - manning my harpoon

not where i wanted to be - i'm whaling

i feel like jonah - never meaning you no harm

but i'm whaling - next port of call- back in my sweet

baby's arms

in a room - close - savouring our love while we got

rest and recreation
