about

This song is inspired by a postcard I received from Cara, a good friend from college. She maintains a childlike fascination with the world and sees things very differently from the jaded eyes of most everybody else, myself included. In this recording, the text of the postcard is read by another friend, Tesse, who is just as jaded as I am, but has a quality to her voice that can make you think otherwise.

Written 1 March 2006.

lyrics

Whales sing to attract a mate
I sing to reiterate:
If it's not too late to say
I'd like to see you every day

Oh I adore you
and all the things that you do
I love the way that you tell
how you would trash talk a whale

'Whale? More like Fish-Fatty!'

'Big Fat Fish and I do not get along.'


Who but you would take the bait
and put that mammal-fish in his place
I can't begin to speculate



'I challenge any whale. You hear that, whale? I challenge you!'

'Whale: I challenge you!'
