Wind in Our Sail

A boy and a girl

Albatross around their necks

Hands burning from the rope

Ships stranded in the tropics

Acidification

Wiped out the tiger shark

Let's try to save their souls

And trust the man with the Torah

We got the wind in our sail

Like Darwin on the Beagle

Or Mendel experimenting

With the pea

We got the wind in our sail

And we can do so many

Great things together, together

Breathe in the salt

Slicing waves at forty knots

Cumulonimbus in the sky

This is what we've waited for

And now there's no more

Hyperventilating

In wheelchairs

We're gonna save the last dog

On Funk Island

We had to do it wrong

Before we could do it right

We got the wind in our sail

Like Darwin on the Beagle

Or Mendel experimenting

With the pea

We got the wind in our sail

And we can do so many

Great things together, together

Pushing the stone up the hill

And if it rolls back down

Whoa Sisyphus, it rolls back down

Pushing the stone up the hill

And if it rolls back down

Whoa Sisyphus, it rolls back down

We got the wind in our sail

Like Darwin on the Beagle

Or Mendel experimenting

With the pea

We got the wind in our sail

And we can do so many

Great things together, together

(We got the wind in our sail

We got the wind in our sail)
