A Whale's Tale

You don't even know me

But you hunt me the same

You don't even know me

But you hunt me the same

You don't even see me

But you seek me the same

And you cheat the scales

When you push in

The stakes are fixed

So I can never win

And if all fails you can pull on the line

It's just a whale's tale that I leave behind

You don't take no heed but you won't get my mind

Still you pay no kind keep pulling in

Chain the tide so that I can't swim

And if all else fails you can pull on the line

You don't even know me

But you own me the same

You don't even know me

But you own me the same

And when your net is empty

It's still me who you blame

When the deep blue sea grows dead and still

Take a bow, you had a hand in it

And if all fails you can pull on the line

It's a whale's tale that I leave behind

You don't take no heed but you won't get my mind

And if all else fails you can pull on the line

It's a whale's tale that I leave behind

Said you don't take no heed but you won't get my mind

And if all else fails you can pull on the line
