A Whale's Tale

You don't even know me
But you hunt me the same
You don't even know me
But you hunt me the same
You don't even see me
But you seek me the same

And you cheat the scales
When you push in
The stakes are fixed
So I can never win

And if all fails you can pull on the line
It's just a whale's tale that I leave behind
You don't take no heed but you won't get my mind

Still you pay no kind keep pulling in
Chain the tide so that I can't swim
And if all else fails you can pull on the line

You don't even know me
But you own me the same
You don't even know me
But you own me the same

And when your net is empty
It's still me who you blame
When the deep blue sea grows dead and still
Take a bow, you had a hand in it

And if all fails you can pull on the line
It's a whale's tale that I leave behind
You don't take no heed but you won't get my mind
And if all else fails you can pull on the line

It's a whale's tale that I leave behind
Said you don't take no heed but you won't get my mind
And if all else fails you can pull on the line
