I'm sorry, my sweet But the dolphins don't swim anymore They just float on the surface Of the cruel, tempting ocean And wait for the waves to move them Oh, no! They aren't dead! Don't be absurd They're just lethargic Atrophied And gathering ocean dust Since Ahab drowned

The dolphins don't swim anymore
I'm sorry, my sweet But the dolphins don't swim anymore They just float on the surface Of the cruel, tempting ocean And wait for the waves to move them Oh, no! They aren't dead! Don't be absurd They're just lethargic Atrophied And gathering ocean dust Since Ahab drowned
I know dolphins aren't whales, but I think I will tell this to small children I see at the beach...
