Ahab Lyrics - The Graduate - Mc Lars

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 un-conquering 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 

(There's a [Incomprehensible] 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 idiotic 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 

(There's a [Incomprehensible] 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 

(There's a [Incomprehensible] 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 

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 super grass beat 

(There's a [Incomprehensible] 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 

(There's a [Incomprehensible] 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 

There's a [Incomprehensible] feeling around me 

And a stone cold feeling inside 

And I just can't stop messing my mind up 

Or wasting my time
