Whale Trail - Gruff Rhys

I’m on the whale trail

And I won’t fail whale

Just set sail

With heavy tail to the bottom of the clouds

And when I set sail

I won’t tell tales

Without fail

With Abigail to the toppermost of the sky

There ain’t no riots in the sky

Just a riot of colour

That will last forever

'I can see my house from here'

Summer in the winter time

Colours through the clouds

Thunder through the atmosphere

Tears run aground

Summer in the wintertime

Colours trail behind

Thunder through the atmosphere

Lightning melts my mind

And on the whale trail

We’ll find that lost grail

We looked for it for so long

It was just sitting there

All this time

And when I cloud burst

I won’t come off worse

My full purse of universal stars

In the sky

There ain’t no riots in the air

Just a riot of colour

That will last forever

'I can see my house from here'

'Whale trail, whale trail'

Summer in the winter time

Colours through the clouds

Thunder through the atmosphere

Tears run aground

Summer in the wintertime

Colours trail behind

Thunder through the atmosphere

Lightning melts my mind

Just tax the rich

And give to causes that will cause the pain to cease

And all the troubles will evaporate with love

No armoured cars

Just time and stars

And universal suffrage

For everyone forever

Never turn away

We could create so much together

We could get to mars

And back again for snacks and video games

This is a motivational song

Let’s all get along

Don’t take so long

Take over

Summer in the winter time

Colours through the clouds

Thunder through the atmosphere

Tears run aground

Summer in the wintertime

Colours trail behind

Thunder through the atmosphere

Lightning melts my mind

I’ve got nothing left to lose

I’ve got everything to gain again

Since you regained the sovereignty of the air

I’ve got nothing left to lose

I’ve got everything to gain again

Since you regained the sovereignty of the sky
