In The Belly Of The Whale Lyrics - Ultimate Collection - Newsboys

Up to my ears 

in bitter tears. 

can't believe i've sunk this low 

as i walk the plankton 

inner sanctum. 

got outta dodge, 

sailed on a bon-less 

bon voyage. 

you said north, 

i headed south. 

tossed overboard. 

good lord, that's a really large mouth... 

I'm sleeping with fishes here, 

in the belly of the whale. 

i'm highly nutritious here, 

in the belly of the whale. 

bad food, lousy atmosphere. 

i don't wanna bellyache. 

how long is this gonna take? 

Woke up this morning kinda blue, 

thinking through that age-old question: 

how to exit a whale's digestion? 

it might behoove me to be heaved. 

head out like a human comet. 

hmmm... i wonder what rhyme with comet. 

I'm sleeping with fishes here, 

in the belly of the whale. 

i'm highly nutritious here, 

in the belly of the whale. 

i'm ready to reappear. 

i don't wanna bellyache. 

lord, how long's this gonna take? 

End times, they come rolling around. 

enzymes, they come breaking us down to the core. 

the good lord grants we all get a second chance. 

I'm one of the dishes here, 

in the belly of the whale. 

they say i'm delicious here, 

in the belly of the whale. 

lord, please make him chuck it all. 

it's a gut call 

in the belly of the whale. 

I'm in the belly of the whale. 

in the belly of the whale. 

i'm in the belly. 

in the belly of the whale. 

i'm in the belly of the whale. 

in the belly of the whale. 

i'm in the belly... 

In the belly of the whale 

in an underwater jail 

it's a tight squeeze. 

it's a-gettin' to me, 

but it's roomier 

than the tail. 

hey, sailor, 

got my flow free 

like a salmon to the sea 

from the l.a. symphony. 

i'm a paddleboat 

paddlin' in their wake, 

a fake free-styler, 

but my unemployment pays. 

i'm avoiding cliches 

like "whale of a tale" say 

or "you can't keep 

a good man down," 

'cause you can 

and i've been there, man. 

but i've been expectorated. 

i'm elated! 

i'm free like willie! 

happy day! 

oops, 

that's a bit of a cliche. 

In the belly...
