White Whale – The Admiral lyrics

Oh, the crime you always could commit
Was ignoring the ones that forced you to admit
That you never got along
Until there came a song
And nary a one among them was a hit

Then Admiral Yummyman came in without his ship
Pointing out to everyone his upper lip
Saying, "I don't believe I've been
With anyone I'd call a friend
They just stole me and returned me as they saw fit."

But don't worry mate, tonight we celebrate
Well don't be such a fright
And who throws parties like these anymore?
Did they not go out of fashion before the war?
And while the cocktails were being mixed
The partygoers eyes were fixed
On the admiral who had wrestled the host to the floor

And the chairs and the tables about the room
You decided upon yourself it was time to prove
If somebody likes your song
You were fit enough to break the law
So you broke it and broke it and broke it till she didn't move.

Sitting alone, now you're on your own
Under the night, waiting for the light
Yes, waiting, remembering her eyes. Her eyes.

Oh... [x27]

Oh the crime that you always could commit
Was ignoring the ones that forced you to admit
That you never got along
Until there came a song
And nary a one among them was a hit.

Oh the crime you always could commit
Oh the crime you always could commit.
