MOBY GOT DICK
By Josephine Riesman
I hate white whales and I cannot lie
You other seamen can't deny
When the beast swims by as a pale and eerie sight
Spermacetti is your right
You get sprung
Wanna throw spears well
Til you know that the whale's in Hell
Oh, Moby
I wanna stop goonin' And get harpoonin'
My boatswain tried to stop this But that eye you got makes
(Me so vicious!)
Ooh, Devil's own whale
You say you wanna end my tale?
Well, try me, try me
Cuz I ain't no average briney
I've seen him blowin' To hell with all knowin'
He swim, fin
Got it goin' like a turbo Schwinn
I'm tired of novelists
Sayin' orcas are the best
Take the average Ahab and ask him why
I'll tell ya I'm not shy
So sailors (YEAH!)
Sailors (YEAH!)
Has your whale-foe got the white? (HELL YEAH!)
Tell him to fluke it (FLUKE IT!)
Fluke it (FLUKE IT!)
Now throw that sharpened stick
Moby got Dick
