I was floatin’ on the sea, when out of nowhere;

a head popped up from the water, couldn’t help but stare

He was a daffy motherfucker, floatin’ on the water;

and I caught the next wave and didn’t think about it further.

When I turned back around, and paddled out back

He was a splishin’ and splashin’ like he was takin’ a bath!

Waves passing under; things are goin’ smooth.

Where the waves break, we’re comin’ up to and a

we can hang on the beach until you fly again!

And dryin’ his feathers, safely on shore
