Whaling

(Dobbyn)

from The Optimist, Dave Dobbyn collection, Single A-side & Language Single B-side (Live)

Sing Bravo Bravo
You're a brave brave man
I know it's just bravado
You never sink 'cause you swim
And when your ship can't handle
The heavier seas
Your spirits will get you through
No down on bended knees

You sing 'Save me- Save me'
Save me from myself
I'm the first to get trigger happy
The first to think of my own health

'Cause I'm- Oh I
'Cause I'm whaling
Out on the green
I'll never get used to the sea
But I'm whaling
Manning my harpoon
Not where I wanted to be
I'm whaling
Feel like Jonah
Never meaning you no harm
But I'm whaling
Next port of call- back in my sweet baby's arms
In a room- close- savouring our love
While we got rest and recreation

Oooh you sing Bravo Bravo
Save me from myself
I'm the first to get trigger happy
The first to think of my own health

'Cause I'm- Oh I
'Cause I'm whaling
Out on the green
I'll never get used to the sea
But I'm whaling
Manning my harpoon
Not where I wanted to be
I'm whaling
Feel like Jonah
Never meaning you no harm
But I'm whaling
Next port of call- back in my sweet baby's arms
In a room- close- savouring our love
While we got rest and recreation
