In The Belly Of The Wale Lyrics

Up to my ears in bitter tears
Can't believe I've sunk this low
As I walk the plankton inner sanctum
Got outta Dodge, sailed on a bon-less Bon Voyage
You said "North" I headed south tossed overboard
Good Lord, that's a really large mouth

I'm sleeping with fishes here
In the belly of the whale
I'm highly nutritious here
In the belly of the whale
Bad food lousy atmosphere
I don't want a bellyache
How long is this gonna take?

Woke up this morning kind of blue
Thinking through that age-old question
How to exit a whale's digestion?
It might behoove me to be heaved
Head out like a human comet
(Larry): Guys, you might not wanna rhyme with comet

I'm sleeping with fishes here
In the belly of the whale
I'm highly nutritious here
In the belly of the whale
Bad food lousy atmosphere
I don't want a bellyache
How long is this gonna take?

End times, they come rolling around
Enzymes, they come breaking us down to the core
The good Lord grants we all get a second chance

I'm one of the dishes here
In the belly of the whale
They say I'm delicious here
In the belly of the whale
Lord, please make him chuck it all
It's a call
In the belly of the whale
I'm in the belly of the whale
In the belly of the whale
I'm in the belly
In the belly of the whale
I'm in the belly of the whale
In the belly of the whale

In the belly of the whale
In an underwater jail
It's a tight squeeze,
It's a-gettin' to me but it's roomier than the tail
Hey sailor
Got my flow free
Like a salmon in the sea
From the L.A. Symphony
I'm a paddle-boat, paddlin' in their wake
A fake free-styler
But my unemployment pays
I'm avoiding clichés
Like "whale of a tale" (stale)
Or "you can't keep a good man down"
'Cause you can
And I been there, man
But I've been expectorated
I'm elated!
I'm free like Willie! happy day
Oops, that's a bit of a cliché

In the belly of the whale
In the belly of the whale
In the belly of the whale
