Ahab

Call me Ahab, what, monomaniac Obsessed with success unlike Steve Wozniak On the hunt for this mammal that once took my leg With my warn down crew and my man Queequeg “You're never going to find him!” He's a big sperm whale “The ocean is enormous!” Shut up, we're setting sail This scar that you see that runs down my face Has scarred my soul and inspired this chase Mental sickness has got me on the run Full speed ahead! This is American fun There is wisdom that is woe, so welcome to my life It was fine until Moby scarred me like a knife Towards thee I sail, thou unconquering whale To stab my spear into your white tail The first one to stop him gets this gold doubloon Now excuse me while I go be melancholy in my room! CHORUS (Got a low low feeling around me) Bad trip thanks to Moby Dick! (And a stone cold feeling inside) Peg leg, sperm whale, jaw bone, what! (And I just can't stop messing my mind up) Whale crash so fast (Or wasting my time) Oh no, oh no! The ship's got a hole, plug it up, plug it up! “We're never going to find this white whale, Are we captain?” Hey Ishmael… can I call you annoying? Grown up Beluga in the deep blue sea Swims so fast and swims so free With the heaven above, Moby Dick stressing me And this crazy drenched crew below Call it idiot pride, or call me Oedipus My main tragic flaw… “But what about us?” It's your battle too, crew, man vs. beast At least have respect as we sail south and east And north and west, look I'm doing my best While the rain keeps pouring we're exhausted and stressed Pip went insane when he almost drowned, So profound when he shrieks like a little sailor clown Random ships we met warned us of our doom They said our boat would be our tomb Near the Mariana Trench, deep and oceanic We spotted Moby Dick so white and titanic REPEAT CHORUS I said, “You took my leg, and for that you must die!” I threw my spear and hit Moby in the eye He charged the boat, it began to sink I said, “How about that? Hubris really stinks!” I didn't think that it would end like this Pride met fate, this captain got dissed Let it be a lesson, revenge is never sweet So I stomp my peg to this Supergrass beat! REPEAT CHORUS (Got a low low feeling around me) That's it, thanks to Moby Dick! (And a stone cold feeling inside) Peg leg, sperm whale, jaw bone, what! (And I just can't stop messing my mind up) Whale crash so fast (Or wasting my time) Oh no, oh no! The ship's got a hole, plug it up, plug it up!
