Whiteness of The Whale

from We're All Adults Here by al Riggs

subscriber exclusive

lyrics

Hung down over the street lamps
Londoners love
Pink lamp reaching down to the steps
Sedementary in nature
Grows brighter in winter

Why does the whiteness of the whale
Matter much
When all it's going to do is swallow you?
I pulled its tongue and held on

And the whale swallowed up the street lamps
Londoners love
Whale ate the pink light and the steps
Made my escape when he
Froze over in the winter

Why does the quality of meat
Matter much
When an ocean of ice is all that's
There for your bed?

I ripped it apart
Swam around its head
And by the morning
They'll all think I'm dead.
