The Whale Song Songtext

von Modest Mouse

I guess I am a scout
So I should find a way out
So everyone can find a way out

They keep us in to pull us out
I'm rising up wish I was sinking down
And it's not like there was warning we were happy then
And it's not like there was mourning in the warning
For the the first time...
For the the first time...
Instead of seeing a neighbor out
God, I wish I would've found a way out
It's the last time we were happy, ever happy

I know I am a scout
And I should find a way out
So everyone can find a way out
But I know it isn't them
Cause no one got out
Well no one ever got out
Well I know I was a scout
I never found my way out
So no one ever made it out
I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out
Well I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out
I guesss I am a scout
So I should find a way out
Well I guess I oughta found a way out
I know I am a scout
So I should find a way out
Well I guess I never found a way out

Well I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out
Well I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out
Well I know I was a scout
I should've found a way out
So everyone could find a way out
