Whale Trail Songtext
von Gruff Rhys

I′m on the whale trail
And I won't fail whale
Just set sail
With heavy tail
To the bottom of, of the clouds

And when I set sail
Well, I won′t tell tales
Without fail
With Abigail
To the topmost of the sky

There ain't no riots in the sky
Just a riot of colour
That will last forever

I can see my house from here


Summer in the Wintertime
Colour through the clouds
Thunder through the atmosphere
Tears run aground
Summer in the Wintertime
Colours trail behind
Thunder through the atmosphere
Lightning melts my mind

And on the whale trail
We'll find that lost grail
We looked for it for so long
It was just sitting there all this time

And when I cloud burst
I won′t come off worse
My full purse
Of universal stars in the sky

There ain′t no riots in the air
Just a riot of colour
That will last forever

I can see my house from here

(Whale trail, whale trail)


Summer in the Wintertime
Colour through the clouds
Thunder through the atmosphere
Tears run aground
Summer in the Wintertime
Colours trail behind
Thunder through the atmosphere
Lightning melts my mind

Just tax the rich
And give to causes that will cause the pain to cease
And all the troubles will evaporate with love
No armoured cars, just time and stars
And universal suffrage
For everyone forever
Never turn away

We could create so much together
We could get to mars
And back again for snacks and video games
This is a motivational song
Let's all get along
Don′t take so long, take over

Summer in the Wintertime
Colour through the clouds
Thunder through the atmosphere
Tears run aground
Summer in the Wintertime
Colours trail behind
Thunder through the atmosphere
Lightning melts my mind

I've got nothing left to lose
I′ve got everything to gain again
Since you regained the sovereignty of the air
I've got nothing left to lose
I′ve got everything to gain again
Since you regained the sovereignty of the sky
