Of Whales And Woe Lyrics - Of Whales And Woe - Les Claypool

the bowels gurgle a bit more these days it seems 

and he thinks more about the way he saunters 'round 

the posture of his father is not his chosen destination 

but though his head remains in the same proximity 

his chin with creeping dangle moves closer to the ground 

he aims his good ear best he can towards conversation and sometimes leans in awkward toward your seat 

and if by chance one feels their space too invaded 

then try your best to calmly be discreet 

because this septic breathed man that stands before you 

is a champion from days gone by 

and the tales of whales and woe off his liquored toungue will flow 

the light will soft white twinkle off the cataracts in his eye 

so if by chance you're cornered near the bathroom 

or he blocks you sprawled in his aisle seat 

embrace the chance to hear some tales of greatness 

'cause he is the most interesting ball of toxins you're ever apt to meet
