On the Nantucket sleigh ride
They take your line and dive
Hold on boys this whale is gonna run
But he'll come up exhausted
Spouting out black blood
Harpoon split his heart and sunk his lung
From Africa's tears of slavery
To the slavery of a marriage
Would you raise your black fist up in defiance
When all the world are making bombs
And justifying guns
Man of woe and man of hate and violence
We're on the Nantucket sleigh ride with you
Life's a Nantucket sleigh ride with you
Speeding through the lives we live
Wailing at the wall
Until the bombers come blow apart the girl
Sex lubricated in whale oil
Your pleasure their pain
There's so much hatred in this world
There's blood on all our leaders
But it's our blood not yours
But you
You don't love anything at all
From religion to kings and queen
To emperors and democracy
Each form of control takes less and less time to fall
Hand the world to a breast feeding woman
We're on the Nantucket sleigh ride with you
Life's a Nantucket sleigh ride with you
The money men and the captain
Giving orders to burn the dead
Holocaust bed awaits the whale men below decks
We close our eyes and speak our lies
Just talk about ourselves
And we all carry pictures of other people having sex
Follow orders of time keepers
Follow orders of the kneelers
From the president
From the army
From the state
Follow order on the whale boats
Follow orders in the death camps
Social media gonna tame ya
Blamer's gotta blame
Hater's gotta hate
Hand the world to a breast feeding woman
We're on the Nantucket sleigh ride with you
Life's a Nantucket sleigh ride with you
Nothing shall be untouched by us
Ask the buffalo
From space now you can see the brown footprint we trod
Would your deity be proud of you
Kill the elephant for its ivory
Carve it into effigies of God
Hold on tight to the reigns of hell
Tigers
Panda
Man
When hunger's greed
Death it won't be long
On the Nantucket sleigh ride
You thrill as you watch 'em die
They fished the seas in my home town till all the fish were gone
Hand the world to a breast feeding woman
Life's a Nantucket sleigh ride with you
We're on the Nantucket sleigh ride with you
