Lyrics The Lightning Seeds

The Lightning Seeds

Porpoise Song

My, my the clock in the sky is pounding away

Theres so much to say

A face, a voice, an overdub has no choice

And it cannot rejoice

Wanting to be, to hear and to see

Crying to the sky

But the porpoise is laughing good-bye, good-bye

Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye

Clicks, clacks

Riding the backs of giraffes for laughs is alright for a while

The ego sings of castles and kings and things

That go with a life of style

Wanting to feel, to know what is real

Living is a lie

But the porpoise is waiting good-bye, good-bye

Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye

Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye

Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye
