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 wanna bellyache How long is this gonna take?
Woke up this morning kinda 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 Boy: "hey 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 I'm ready to reappear I don't wanna bellyache Lord, how long's this gonna take?

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 gut call In the belly of the whale

I'm free like Willie! Happy Day! Oops That's a bit of a cliche
