Natalie Merchant It Makes A Change lyrics

(*Mervyn Peake)
[** Disc 1:]


There’s nothing makes a Greenland whale*
Feel half so high and mighty
As sitting on a mantelpiece
In Aunty Mabel's nighty

As sitting on a mantelpiece
In Aunty Mabel's nighty

It makes a change from Freezing Seas
Of which a whale can tire
To warm his weary tail at ease
Before an English fire

There’s nothing makes a Greenland whale
Feel half so high and mighty
As sitting on a mantelpiece

In Aunty Mabel's nighty

It makes a change from Freezing Seas
Of which a whale can tire
To warm his weary tail at ease
Before an English fire

For this delight he leaves the seas
Unknown to Aunty Mabel
Returning only when the dawn
Lights up the Breakfast Table
When the dawn
Lights up the Breakfast Table

Returning only when the dawn
Lights up the Breakfast Table
When the dawn, when the dawn...
