Shanty Town Songtext

Shanty Town Songtext
The whale song
But where′s it coming from?
Oh ha, ha ha, oh
Well, my lad you've come aboard then
You look as if you wanted a breath of sea air
I want to fish
Well, you′ve got a lovely day for it, ha, ha, ha, ha
Hold back, 300 meters port bow captain
I can just see the whale coming out of the mist
They heard a gurgling sound,
And the head of the whale rose above the surface of the water
"There's a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish", he cried
And the whale was in full view
There′s a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish's bow
And the whale was in full view
Whale fish, whale fish, whale fish
And the whale was in full view
There′s a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish
And the whale was in full view
The huge fish emerged from the water
It looked dreadful
It was covered in mud and green weed
You call that a whale?
Aargh, what sorta fish are you?
I'm not a real fish at all, you stupid man
What are you if you're not a fish?
You certainly look like a fish
Well, I certainly don′t feel like a fish
"There′s a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish", he cried
And the whale was in full view
There's a whale, There′s a whale
There's a whale fish′s bow
And the whale was in full view
Whale fish, whale fish, whale fish
And the whale was in full view
There's a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish
And the whale was in full view
Just then he fell into the sea
Whoops, man overboard
Do something fast, swim for it
I, I can′t swim
Can't swim, well well, fancy that
The lifeboat came to the rescue
I′ve been shipwrecked
Well, after being shipwrecked
No doubt you'll be ready for lunch
When the fisherman got his breath back
They had a lovely picnic supper of fish and chips
It was the best fish supper they′d ever tasted
It was delicious
"There's a whale, there′s a whale
There's a whale fish", he cried
And the whale was in full view
There's a whale, there′s a whale
There′s a whale fish's bow
And the whale was in full view
Whale fish, whale fish, whale fish
And the whale was in full view
There′s a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish
And the whale was in full view
Whale's great creatures of the sea
Please listen to me
Whales, whales, whales, whales
Whales, I am your friend
On the bed of the ocean
No doubt
Thank you, great fish
But where′s it coming from?
Oh ha, ha ha, oh
Well, my lad you've come aboard then
You look as if you wanted a breath of sea air
I want to fish
Well, you′ve got a lovely day for it, ha, ha, ha, ha
Hold back, 300 meters port bow captain
I can just see the whale coming out of the mist
They heard a gurgling sound,
And the head of the whale rose above the surface of the water
"There's a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish", he cried
And the whale was in full view
There′s a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish's bow
And the whale was in full view
Whale fish, whale fish, whale fish
And the whale was in full view
There′s a whale, there's a whale
There′s a whale fish
And the whale was in full view
The huge fish emerged from the water
