The Whale

If you want, I will love you.
I'll open my cupboard and show you my jumpers and posters and you'll say;
Don't be afraid, I've been here before.
I'm made of ivory, I'm a cannibal.
What have you done? you're not a weapon, are you?
What have you done? you're not a weapon, are you?

I last forever and I have plenty time,
Make marks, I do not panic.
Don't be afraid, I've been here before.
I'm made of ivory, I eat cannibals.
I'll tie you up, I'll sail on by, I will.
Oh, I'll tie you up, I'll sail on by, I will.

Oh, the whale is not my friend tonight,
I've never been alone.
Oh, the whale is not my friend tonight,
It's just a bag of bones.
Oh, the whale is not my friend tonight.
