Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's nothing that makes a Greenland whale
Feel half so high and mighty (Mighty)
Sitting on a mantelpiece
In Aunty Mabel's nighty
Sitting on a mantelpiece
In Aunty Mabel's nighty
[Verse 2]
It makes a change from the freezing seas
Of which a whale can tire
To warm his weary tail at ease
Before an English fire
[Verse 3]
There's nothing that makes a Greenland whale
Feel half so high and mighty (Mighty)
Sitting on a mantelpiece
In Aunty Mabel's nighty
[Verse 4]
It makes a change from the freezing seas
Of which a whale can tire
To warm his weary tail at ease
Before an English fire
[Verse 5]
For this delight, he leaves the seas
Unknown to Aunty Mabel
Returning only when the dawn
Lights up the breakfast table
[Verse 6]
When the dawn
Lights up the breakfast table
Come the morning sun
[Verse 7]
Returning only when the dawn
Lights up the breakfast table
When the dawn (When the dawn)
When the dawn
Come the morning sun
[Verse 8]
Lights up the breakfast table
When the dawn (When the dawn)
When the dawn
Come the morning sun
