Emperor Penguin

The emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) is the tallest and heaviest of all living penguin species and is endemic to Antarctica. The male and female are similar in plumage and size, reaching 100 cm (39 in) in length and weighing from 22 to 45 kg (49 to 99 lb). Feathers of the head and back are black and sharply delineated from the white belly, pale-yellow breast and bright-yellow ear patches. Like all penguins, it is flightless, with a streamlined body, and wings stiffened and flattened into flippers for a marine habitat.

It's astonishing and painful to walk through the halls of this place
Where they told you to be grateful, and talked of your fall and disgrace
You discover that it's never been easier to leave her, the teacher who taught you
That ignorance goes on

Nobody needs your questions
You're lucky that you are here
The answers are known
Don't try to go it alone
Or we will grind your bones
Through a kaleidoscope of tears
In the extraordinary years
You'll find out who you really are

In the playground it's a jungle, you struggle, they love to taste fresh meat
Before the spider in the tangle you dangle, 'til you're big enough to eat
Fascinating that's it's never been better, you float like a feather
You left here for ever and moved on

Now you can ask your questions
We're happy that you are here
Now that you've grown
You are not on your own
And the future's unknown
In the extraordinary years
The extraordinary years
You'll find out who you really are

Are we moving in a new direction?
Do we threaten to approach perfection?

Now that you've grown
You are not on your own
And the future's unknown
In the extraordinary years
The extraordinary years
You'll find out who you really are
