Lyrics

[00:07.89] Baptized in the shallow end
[00:14.66] Of a Holiday Inn
[00:21.66] Limbs dangled over my Pa
[00:28.70] Like an inverse Pietà
[00:35.75] Mother Nature cried
[00:38.66] "You are Leviathan, my child
[00:42.55] You are Leviathan inside."
[00:51.79] And my lungs runneth over
[00:58.64] With chlorinated water
[01:04.95] And I pleaded with my Pa
[01:12.18] But he said, “I can’t carry you no more.”
[01:19.92] Mother Nature cried
[01:26.56] "You are Leviathan, my child
[01:30.58] You are Leviathan inside."
[01:39.98] Mother Nature sighed
[01:42.59] “What hell is this I made this time?
[01:46.51] You are Leviathan in size.”
[01:57.06]
[02:04.52] Can I make a pet of you?
[02:10.90] Dress you up for all the girls
[02:17.88] Will I keep you begging now
[02:24.57] Or touch you with my gentle words?
[02:32.50] Mother Nature cried
[02:34.49] “You are leviathan, my child
[02:38.45] You are Leviathan inside.”
[02:47.78] Mother Nature sighed
[02:50.52] “What hell is this I made this time?
[02:54.55] You are Leviathan in size.”
[03:03.42]
